The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers For his part, he liked sealed instruments—which might be because he was a sealer—but as for mere words, he set but little store by them. The Monikins What would you say to the note of a sealer who should lay down an island where the seals lie about on the beach like pigs in a pen, sunning themselves? The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers Quite true, sir," returned Hazard, "and men that take their lays in sealers, are not to expect anything but squalls.

The Home of the Blizzard Being the Story of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911-1914 In the abstract, the situation of the sealers was still sufficiently painful; though compared with what it would have been with the other schooner wrecked, it was security itself.

The Home of the Blizzard Being the Story of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911-1914 Some regard was had to resisting the pressure of ice, and experience had taught all the sealers where the principal defences against the effects of a "nip" ought to be placed. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers To own the truth, we sealers do not like to speak of our cruising grounds—and, as for these monikins, after all, what are they good for? The Monikins What images of the past and future did these few jocular words awaken in the mind of our young sealer! The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers The niece read a long account of whalers spoken, with so many hundred or so many thousand barrels of oil on board, but could discover no allusion to any sealer.

The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers "We sha'nt go so fast for our armor," observed the cautious old sealer; "but what we want in heels, we'll make up in bottom."

The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers Desolate, indeed, and nearly devoid of hope, had the situation of our sealers now become. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers A gang of sealers was landed with a view to obtaining sea elephant and penguin oil. The Home of the Blizzard Being the Story of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911-1914 Ice, and its dangers, were known to exist a few degrees farther in that direction; but islands also had been discovered, and turned to good account by the enterprise of the sealers. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers I endeavored to pacify the sealer, by an appeal to his philosophy. The Monikins He was the oldest man in the two crews, and the most experienced sealer. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers The necessity for admitting light, too, admonished the sealers of the inexpediency of thus shrouding all their windows. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers At the latter place are situated the oil works belonging to the sealers. The Home of the Blizzard Being the Story of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911-1914 It's desperate cold ice, the sealers all tell me, that of the antarctic seas. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers Some of the sealers ascribed this obstinacy in the bay-ice to its greater thickness; believing that the shallowness of the water had favoured a frozen formation below, that did not so much prevail off soundings. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers All the expedients known to a sealer's materia medico, were resorted to, in order to avert consequences so serious, but without success. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers They proved to be Phil Hazard, his first officer; Tim Green, the second mate; and the two sealers whom it had cost so much time and ingenuity to obtain. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers The sealers tried repeatedly to come out to us, but as often as it was launched their boat was washed up again on the beach, capsizing them into the water. The Home of the Blizzard Being the Story of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911-1914 No such weather, indeed, had been felt by the sealers since they reached the group; and the effect on them was highly cheering and enlivening. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers I was once in a sealer that, do all she could, couldn't get shut of a curious neighbour. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers Gardiner got this concession out of the miserly temperament of the old man, by persuading him that a sealer could not work to any advantage, unless he had the means of occasionally warming himself. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers On the whole, he fancied his chances good; and such he found to be Stimson's opinion, when this experienced sealer was questioned on the subject.

The Home of the Blizzard Being the Story of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911-1914 One entire spring month was before the sealers, and a shift of wind might convert the weather into a wintry temperature. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers Of cargo, proper, there was none, or next to none; a sealer carrying little besides salt, and her stores. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers After a delay of several days, Hazard sent across from Stonington a man by the name of Watson, who had the reputation of being a first-class sealer. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers Never mind Cook--he was a king's navigator--my man was an American sealer; and what he has once seen he knows where to find again. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers Those of the staff arriving by the 'Toroa' were housed ashore with the sealers, as, when everybody was on board, the 'Aurora' was uncomfortably congested. The Home of the Blizzard Being the Story of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911-1914 This set our sealers up, no more complaints of the frost being heard. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers Time was very precious to our sealers, the season being so short in the high latitudes. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers That is a pleasant sight to a true sealer, Captain Gar'ner," observed Stimson, who as usual had kept near his officer, "and one that I can say I never before saw equalled. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers "Sure enough; I had forgotten that, Stephen; but we sealers seldom lie by for such a reason." The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers For a while they suspected the 'Aurora' of being an alien sealer, and had prepared to defend their rights to the local fishery. The Home of the Blizzard Being the Story of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911-1914 The summer had passed, that summer which was to have brought back the sealers; and autumn had come to chill the hopes as as the body. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers So much the worse for us sealers, then, sir. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers As Roswell's rules were rigidly observed, no other change was produced by this accession to the force of the sealers, than additional slaughter. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers That experienced sealer sent for his mate, and soon gave him to understand that he was yet his commander. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers One of the sealers, Hutchinson by name, who had been to Caroline Cove and knew the best route to take, kindly volunteered to accompany Hurley. The Home of the Blizzard Being the Story of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911-1914 A sealer usually makes a good business of it, if she falls in with seals. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers This was the true explanation; one that did not occur to the less experienced sealers. The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers This is the result of ruthless slaughter prosecuted especially bY sealers in the early days. The Home of the Blizzard Being the Story of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911-1914 To facilitate this latter work the sealers placed at our disposal a "flying fox" which ran from sea-level to the top of Wireless Hill, and which they had erected for the carriage of blubber. The Home of the Blizzard Being the Story of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911-1914 Ninnis took up his abode in the sealers' hut so that he might the better look after their wants, which centred chiefly on sea elephant meat, and that in large quantities.

The Sea Lions The Lost Sealers Macquarie Island, a busy station in the days of the early sealers, had become almost neglected. The Home of the Blizzard Being the Story of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911-1914 In the meantime, Hurley, Harrisson, and the sealer, Hutchinson, had returned from their trip to Caroline Cove, after a most interesting though arduous journey. The Home of the Blizzard Being the Story of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911-1914 One of the old-time sealers had reported a cove suitable for small craft at the south-western corner, but the information was scanty, and recent mariners had avoided that side of the island.
