Captain Hall’s Sickness.
New York, May 21, 1873.
John Herron, steward of the Polaris,
makes the folic wieg statement concerning the
sickness of CapUin Hall .
“Captain Hall bad good health up to the
time of returning from the sledge expedition,
lie was [not] sick when he came on board,
but complained soon afterwards, and said
that the heat of the cabin affected him. I
asked what he would have; I was anxious to
get him something nice. Ho didn’t care
about anything but a cup of coffee, and
didn’t drink even that He was sick a fort
night, and talked very little. He was per
fectly delirious the last few days. I think ha
was paralyzed in one side. There was noth
ing sudden about his death. He was at
tended by Dr. Bessels and Mr. Mofton, who
did everything in their power to alleviate his
sufferings. His death made us all feel very
sad.
WHAT CAPTAIN TYSON SAYS.
Captain Tyson, speaking of Cautaiu Hall’s
death, says: “Hall was sick fifteen days.
He was insensible when he died. He started
from the ship on a sled expedition northwards
on the 10th of October. He was absent four
teen days, and returned on the 21th of Octo
ber to the ship. On the 8th of November he
died, and was buried on the 11th. His grave
bore south, southeast, and about five hundred
paces distant from the observatory in Polaris
t>ay, which was in latitude 81:38, longitude
Cl .41, on shore. We erected a board over his
grave, with an inscription giving his name,
ago (fifty years), date of death, and command
of the North Polar Expedition. All hands,
except the cook, attended his funeral. It was
a dark, dismal, cold, windy and disagreeable
day. The
STATEMENT OF ESQUIMAUX JOE.
Esquimaux Joe, in a published statement,
speaks in a disapproving way of Captain Bad-
dington, sailing master of the Polaris, and
says Hall was poisoned, and that Hall so ex
pressed himself to him, saying there was
something bad in the coffee which he drauk
on returning from the sledge expedition; that
it made him sick ; and that he had a burning
sensation.
STATEMENT OF HANS CHRISTIAN.
Ilans Christian's statement is to the same
effect.
CAPTAIN HALL DEFEATED BY BUDDH?C*TON•
But here, on the eve of an easy victory,
arose that fatal difference of opinion which
blasted all the heroic explorer’s prospects and
rendered fruitless that mighty energy and la
bor which had already led him such a dis
tance over the barren and inhospitipal regions
of the unknown north. The sailing-master,
Baddinglon, had several times expressed
his anxiety to go no further, and strongly
urged the necessity of retreating to winter
at Port Hope, nearly 2l0 miles south of their
present highly advantageous position. Hall
was determined to stay if possible, and
would not consent to this latter propo
sition. BuddingtoD, however, persisted.
Before concluding to retreat, Hall called
a council, consisting of himself, Cap
tain Tyson, Hester (the mate) and Budding-
ton, to consider which course was most ad-
visiable. At this council, Captain Tyson
strongly advocated Captain Hall’s views, and
urged the impropriety of desisting. The brave
and right course was overruled, to which cir
cumstance it is possible Captain Hall owed
his death. If the vessel had continued on
its course, as Captain Hall desired and urged,
the expedition would in all probability have
been crowned with success, and the dreams
of geographers would have been realized, i
But an unaccountable timidity, the offspring j
of craven cowardice or other improper motive,
annihilated the hopes oi Captain Hall. Bud-
diugton, from the position which he occupied,
was master of the situation. He said, “thus
far have you gone; you shall go no farther;”
and be was obeyed, reluctantly of coarse, as a
matter of necessity. It is impossible to aua- j
lyze the motives which prompted Budding- *
ton. From his knowledge of the Arc
tic regions, he most have known
that it was as dangerous to turn
back as to proceed, and that if the
vesaei was to be frozen in she might as well be
frozen in at one place as another. The fact
that Captain Tyson supported the views of
Captain Hall furnishes additional confirmation
that the latter was right and Buddington
wroDg. The blame, if there is blame attend
ing the failure of the expedition, will cleave
to Buddington, unless he can (if still living)
satisfactorily explain what now seems to be
his unaccountable conduct. It is not too
much to say that his action blasted all the
hopes of bis superior.
TTAT.T.’S DESPERATE PERSISTENCE.
Although thwarted in his grand designs,
the explorer did not abandon his investiga
tions; but, in company with the Esquimaux
men and the mate, started on a sledge expedi
tion, from which he returned to die. The
fact is, Hall appears to have been the only
one of the scientific department who ventured.

TYSON S PARTY ABANDONED.
The prevailing impression among the un
fortunate nineteen who were left behind was
that Bnddington bad willfully abandoned
them to their fate. He had been anticipating
tbe breaking up of tbe ice for some time;
and if he bad wished to have Tyson and his
companions on board, he cunld easily have
represented the matter to them 11 such a
light that they would not have ventured to be
absent at so critical a juncture. Bnt no snch
intimation was given to the men on tbe ice.
The vessel did not drift away so suddenly
t hat the men conld not have been rescued from
the perilous position. Tyson says: “I conld
have got aboard the vessel that night and been
there now, bnt I would not leave tbe women
and children. My duty was on the ice. I
thought be [Captain Bnddington] wonld get
back to us next day, which be conld have
done. The breaking away was caused by the
flow to which the ship was fastened drifting in
between tbe land and some icebergs that were
jammed. The jam broke ap the flow and the
vessel broke away. It was abont 9 or 10
o'clock in the nigbt. Tbe temperature was
abont zero. That evening it had been nineteen
degrees above.”
THE COWABDICE OE BUDDINGTON.
Captain Tyson thinks tbe ill feeling and
bad designs of Bnddington and a few others
who were his accomplices had continued from
the first; on each ot Captain Hall’s determi
nations to go as far north as possible, Bnd-
dington determined (from fear, or whatever
cause) that he should not. After Hall’s
death most of the officers were in favor of
continuing and poshing north, and Tyson
says Bnddington, in genera! terms, expressed
bis determination to send them, Tyson and
his party, “on the road to hell," as soon as
opportunity offered. He characterized Bud-
|H dington as a great scoundrel, and declared
:■■jf-iM that he purposely abandoned them to destrnc-
.y^Mticn. He gives Myers tbe character of being
"v* ^^^Jenergetic and qualified in hit department, bnt
thinks he was not sufficiently aware of the
condition of affairs at the time of separation,
H and the possibility of getting rescued then,
to be able to give any opinion upon it. The
H Germans, according to his account, ruled the
ship after Hall’s death, and there was neither
H Inw nor system on board, every one working
W^m entirely on his own acsount.
’ f ESQUIMAUX JOE’S STOBY.
Joe says, partly in answer to inquiries and
W partly speaking on his own account without
k Oeinginterrogated at all: “Very fond of Cap-
r tain Hall. Didn't like Bnddington; always
talking behind back; asking story at time.
Some men here in St Johns and some in
ship used to quarrel. I went with Captain
Hall, pnrpose to go sledge to north. After
Hall died, Buddington wouldn't go. Tell
Buddington I come to go north; he wouldn’t
let me go. Buddington and I quarreled good
deal about it I went with Hall on the last
sled, and Hans and Chester, the mate; we
went fifty miles north of the ship on ice and
S land. We found musk ox tracks on
land. Sun nearly gone when we came
back to ship. Hill told me when
be was sick somebody gave bim some
thing bad. He was sick two weeks. Bnd
dington did not take care of him. I think it
not right; made me feel bad—sick man, good
man, too. Throat swelled something; could
not drink; said he burn inside. I stopped up
with him every night, with another man.
Hall was in cabin. I talked to Hall mneb; he
no talk to others as much as me. I didn’t see
Hall in first night after he came aboard from
sled. I came aboard with bim in afternoon.
He looked well, happy, and spoke nice. The
lour of ms [Hall, Chester, Hans and Joe] had
coffee when came aboard. I had mine in my
own room underneath cabin. Hall in cabin,
and two others in galley. At 10 o'clock that
night my wife told me Hall very sick—vomit
ing—eat something. Next morning I go ate
him. and say, ‘what matter ?' He all alone in
cabin. He say, ‘you pretty well, Joe?' I
say ‘yes.’ He say, ‘you drink bad coffee last
night?’ I say ‘no.’ I ask him did be
drink bad coffee. He say something
bad in coffee I drink last night,
making me sick and stomach bad.' Bam a
morning he got very sick, vomiting. After
five days he feel better, wake np, and say he
want to see my little girl, and say to her h e
think he wonld leave her, but didn't like.
After he get better, he get four doctor books
to try and eee what make him sick. He
study bard and say to me, ‘That name is
making me sick. ’ ’’ (Joe explained that he,
Captain Hall, hero pointed to a name in oae
of the books, which he read out. It was
something abont prison.) “I think after
Hall die, everybody watching one anotbers

makes an elegant bed at every trip, and thoroughly xmlverizeg the land at the same time. After lied-
ding, we plo wed down the bed on the water furrow—tbe place for guano, reversing the bed and covering the
guano at the same time. Iu corn planted in six feet rows, one round cleared tbe row, aud lelt the laud in spleu-
did order, which would have required five furrows with a single plow, thua saving over one-half the labor, aud
doing the work equally as well, if not better. Cotton rows from three to three and a half feet, were cleared at
one furrou, which would have required two iurrows with any other plow. As a cultivator it surpasses any
thing we ever saw, and for bedding lauds aft*-r being broken, it cannot be aarpaa&cd. as it does the work i*t
three men and mules. We cheerfully give it our fullest endorsement and recommendation, as the greatest la
bor-saving agricultural implement that has ever been on our farms, or in this country. The draft of tne plough
is aa light as a Dixon Sweep on a single stock—a medium mule carrying it with esse.
