My former experience in this kind of travel would enable me to avoid many difficul- ties which an inexperienced traveler might encounter. I should be quite willing to try this experiment, making my remuneration depend on my success* Such an ex- periment, fairly and fully tried, would either confirm Morton's account of the open sea, or prove that account to be erroneous. Possibly the experiment might lead to other results of still greater importance. If another Arctic Expedition should leave the United Plates, I am willing to be one of the party, provided I am u'>t '^^loed Id a situation of abject slavery, and am assured oi .-^ach good treatment as any American freeman, however poor and unfortunate he may be, has a right to expect. â â¢* i â -''â ⢠^-^-'^^v' 'â â¢â -â '*i:- fi-'/ â :*,â -*â '.-'. , " â¢.'*â â ^-â '^^- -<:, â ^'^::';^r'. :?.J-^ '-.
