The pumping forward is done by hand at the spar deck bilge pump, and such water as filters aft, through 
and under the bulkhead, into the fire room, is pumped out by hand at the bilge pump attached to the

Sounded in 30 fathoms. Muddy bottom. A moderate drift to S.E. being indicated by the lead line.
The day begins with a moderate gale from W.N.W. and a fall of snow. Wind moderate after noon, 
barometer rapidly rises, and temperature falls. At times the clouds partially break giving glimpses of the 
stars overhead, but around the horizon everything continues dull, thick and gloomy. The light snow fall is 
scattered in clouds of drift along the surface of the floes.
