In two more working days we ought to have everything necessary on shore.
_Tuesday, January_ 10 .-- We have been six days in McMurdo Sound and to-night I can say we are landed.

Were it impossible to land another pound we could go on without hitch.

Nothing like it has been done before; nothing so expeditious and complete.

This morning the main loads were fodder.

Sledge after sledge brought the bales, and early in the afternoon the last (except for about a ton stowed with Eastern Party stores) was brought on shore.
