     Day and night were the same.  My thoughts were on the going
and getting forward, and on nothing else.  The wind was from the
southeast, and seemed to push us on, and the sun was at our backs,
a ball of livid fire, rolling his way above the horizon in
never-ending day.

Hello, it is I, your teacher.
Day and night were the same because the sun did not set.  They are
at the top of the world.  At this time of the year at the North
Pole the sun never sets, thus you have a never-ending day.  Both
the sun and wind were at their backs.

     Captain Bartlett had gone.  Commander Peary and I were alone
(save for the four Eskimos, Ootah, Egingwah, Seegloo and Ooquah),
the same as we had been so often in the past years.  As we looked
at each other, we realized our position and we knew without
speaking that the time had come for us to demonstrate that we were
the men who, it had been ordained, should unlock the door which
held the mystery of the Arctic.  Without an instant's hesitation,
the order to push on was given, and we started off in the trail
made by the captain to cover the Farthest North he had made and to
push on over one hundred and thirty miles to our final destination.
