INSERT Galley 102

With the departure of Crawford, Galle and Maurer we enter upon
the brave history of Knight’s struggle with illness and misfortune. The
diary shows that at first he did not doubt securing enough fresh meat to
stop the scurvy and we cannot speak of courage while as yet when he saw no danger; but
later he recognized saw the danger and faced it in a spirit which we believe the reader
will see better and appreciate more clearly keenly if we refrain from deserved
eulogy no matter how deserved. and comment interpretative comment no matter how excusable and excusable comment. So We go with the simple story in Lorne
Knight's own words.
