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 main 
engine.
The steam cutter's boiler is used for distilling.
Sounded at 10am in 52 fathoms. Sticky mud bottom. No drift being indicated by the lead line.
Weather clear and bright, the sky being absolutely cloudless all day. Light easterly breezes veering to 
S.E. with slightly rising barometer and uniform temperature.
Sunrise 8h 57m, sunset 3h 5m. Low red dawn at 6am.
At 3am faint auroral arch from S.E. to S.S.W. at an altitude of 10°; at 6am streaks of aurora in E. and W. 
directions extending from zenith to 5° above southern horizon. At 9pm, a mass of auroral light, in shape 
resembling a cornucopia, at E.S.E. horizon shot forth lines and streamers which enlarging to a band 30° 
in width at the zenith terminated at W.N.W. horizon in a spiral curtain. Pulsations from E.S.E. to W.N.W. 
Suddenly the whole brightened and formed a curtain-arch 70° in altitude above northern horizon, with 
trembling pink fringe, and the pulsations of light were seemingly returned from W.N.W. to E.S.E. At 
midnight spiral masses of green light were in the N.W. at about 45° altitude.
