11 II, II | connecting the peninsula of Victoria with the mainland was visible

41 II, X | alteration in the position of Victoria Island. The large eddy between
42 II, X | showed a displacement of Victoria Island. Only a slight displacement,
43 II, X | north was more noticeable. Victoria Island was drifting at a
44 II, X | sea~By the 16th September Victoria Island was between seventy-three
