which left Christchurch, December
loth, to search for Captain Robert
Scott and hiss party of explurrers,
who had been in the Antarctic re-

Tl,.e Terra Nova is very reticent
about giving information, but the
terrible story of calamity is gather-
ed from vessels which bespoke her
In distant waters. It was hoped at
first that she carried many sur-
vivors of Scott's party, but this is
DOW considered unlikely.
It is stated that Scott's para,
spent three months in ultra polar
regions, gathering extremely valu-
able geographical and astonomical
information. Their arriv=al there
one month after Amundsen did not
discourage the plucky explorer and
his
r men. They started back ill

what can be ascertained, they ive re

one by one succumbed to starva-
