Decayed camp conditions and voyage back to resupply
Two days after arrival the party repaired an old camp built years before which had decayed. The narrator notes indigenous camps are rudimentary and windward, and describes efforts to reinforce shelter, secure food, and press on to reach the boat for new supplies before night. The account blends travel hardship with observations on camp life and a tangential digression on antique furniture and a brief modern medical column.
