Extract

In 1897–98 I went to lies Kerguelen on a sealing expedition in the sealer Edward, returning to London later in 1898. It was through this that I learned that Carsten Egeberg Borchgrevink was in London preparing an Antarctic expedition. He had served as an ordinary seaman in Antarctic in 1894–95 when H. J. Bull made a voyage to the Ross Sea, making the first landing in Victoria Land.
