Confidential

Dear Mr. FitzGerald:

As the last installment of our confidential corres-
pondence with regard to my enterprise in Wrangel Island, I am
now writing to confirm what you have doubtless seen in the
papers - that our expedition got to Wrangel Island safely and
that five men in my employ are wintering there now. The pur-
pose explained in my previous letters has, therefore, been
attained.

I have not yet learned whether the "Lady Kindersley"
was able to reach Wrangel Island. I hope very much that she
was able. As I said previously, my men had instructions to
co-operate with your men in every way in case you were able to
land there.

Mr. Edward FitzGerald,
Hudson's Bay Company,
208 Main Street,
Winnipeg, Manitoba.
