coming in contact with a submerged and drifting block of ice.
The point of the island which on the 16th inst. bore N. 83° 15' W. (true), to day bears S. 78° 30' W. (true), 
from which change of bearing it is computed that the island is now 24 3/5 miles distant. The position of 
the observed point is therefore Lat 76° 47' 28" N., Long 159° 20' 45" E.
From measurement by a sextant it is found that the island as seen to day subtends an angle of 2° 10'.
