Letter from Dr. Stanley to Dr. Fergusson written on board HMS Erebus July 12, 1845- Awe of the Arctic Exhibit 2024 NYPL

Transcript: My Dear Fergusson, having a few moments to spare before the letter bag is finally closed, I hasten to drop you a line to say that, although within the Arctic Circle , I'm not yet frozen to death and therefore in the land of the living and very jolly. We had a fairish passage out here but had a mighty gale of Cape Farewell, which sent us flying with closed topsails and courses to Cape Desolation, where in spite of the dismal name we found comfort. There's smooth water and a moderate breeze. These islands, and in fact, the whole of this western coast of Greenland, is the most barren and uninviting I ever beheld.

Some of the land is very high and serrated and has the appearance of being volcanic. On the bare rocks, large quantities of tripe-de-roche may be gathered, but as we were not reduced like our excellent captain on a former occasion to such a means of subsistence, no one I could find tried its qualities as a nutrient. We are completely surrounded with icebergs, some of them upwards of 200 feet high. They are, however, from the extreme heat disappearing fast and by their constant disruption, almost frightening your very life out of you.

I and a boat crew had a very narrow escape the other day out shooting. I had just fired and killed an eider duck when I observed that we had drifted closer to an immense iceberg, which I had previously noticed a day or two before in a decayed condition. I said to an officer who was with me "What luck it should come down by the sun!" And then ordered the men to pull quickly from our dangerous neighbor when it fell with a crash. Most stunning and awful to witness. There never was so lucky an escape. The discharge of my two barrels had no doubt hastened its overthrow. And although we were at a distance upwards of 100 yards, quite near enough we were knocked and tossed about by its displacement in the sea in a most uncomfortable manner.

The island swarms with mosquitoes and they are now flying about the gun room in all directions. They are the largest I ever beheld but not the most stinging. We sailed tonight for Lancaster Sound and the transport to dear old England with a report of our proceedings up to this period. At this season of the year, in this latitude, as you are aware there is no darkness. The sun never dips below the horizon. The nights I have there for devoted to shooting and the day to skinning and preserving the specimens I have killed. Since our arrival I have not slept more than 2 or 3 hours in 24. Goodsir is working harder than medusas and desires kindly to be remembered to you.

We are all sanguine and getting through the barrier into Beechey straits this year. Every one of the native Eskimos say this is the most open season they ever remember. And on the strength of our prospects I and the other officers have ordered letters to be directed to us at Panama and Kotzebue. The latter place will, of course, be the first port we shall make when we get through.

I have not a single man on the list and I have not had for several days. Sir John Franklin is not like the same person. He is so much improved in appearance and energy. He is almost always the first on deck and the last to leave it in all weathers. I must conclude now, old fellow, with best wishes and kind regards to Mrs. F and the bairns.

And believe me, your very sincere friend, Stephen S. Stanley. I had intended to have written to Fortnum and Masons. Pray tell them like a good soul that we are delighted with everything they furnished us and the members of the mess unanimously declare them to be trumps and we should be sorry to return before we have consumed all their good things.

찾았다, 수사학. 찾았어. 자네가 물어보던 그 창백빛 고래 말이다.

요 며칠간 집중해서 들은 결과, 안타깝게도 고래 이야기는 들리는게 없더군, 해안에 누군가가 고래를 칠해놓은 배를 비행 청소년들이 훔쳐갔다는 거 빼곤. 기록들 중에서도, 아무리 읽어도 그 처음 찾았던 보고서밖에 없었다.

하지만 답은 의외로 가까이 있었다. 레나가 해리한테 보내주는 낡은 미확인동물 잡지들 말인데- 그중 하나가 그 순경을 인터뷰했었고 우리는 그걸 읽게 됬다. 뭐, 엄밀히 말하면 해리가 읽은거지만.

어쨋든, 거기 ��있기를, 그날 그 순경은 순찰돌 겸 술도 께기 위해 해변을 따라 걷고 있었다. "먼 바다쪽에서 희미한 소리가 들려 고갤 돌리자 [창백 속에서] 무언가가 움직이는 걸 봤다. 그리고 몇초 후, 창백이 바다속에서 뛰어올랐다." 여기까진 보고서에 나와있는 내용이지만, 이 다음 내용은 새로운 정보다.

"...멀리 떨어져 그 창백빛 덩어리를 쫓아 창백이 움직였다. 그 광경은 말로 설명할 수 없는 것이였다- 마치 기름이 물과 만나는 표면과 같았고 동시에 구름이 뭉개져 합쳐진 것같은 자연스러움이었다. 그리고 그 뒤로 거대한 그림자가 보였다. 갈라진 창백빛 꼬리를 향해, 전혀 어울리지 안는 어두운 물체가 잠시 벌어진 창백 사이로 보였다 사라졌다..."

그 고래 뒤에 무언가가 있었다, 수사학. 이것이 뭔진 모르지만.
