Symzonia: Voyage of Discovery
·
Captain Adam Seaborn
35
We
had
no
interval
of
night
in
this
high
latitude,
the
sun's
declination
being
15°
S.
After
running
on
this
course
24
hours,
we
lost
sight
of
the
ice
entirely,
and
thinking
it
most
prudent
to
keep
close
under
the
lee
of
the
ice
to
windward,
that
in
case
of
a
hard
gale
we
might
have
smooth
water,
I
steered
due
South.
We
observed
this
day,
5th
Nov.
in
78°
10',
with
cold,
raw,
disagreeable
weather.
I
had
observed
Slim
moving
about
the
ship,
like
an
uneasy
spirit
compelled
to
revisit
this
troubled
world,
often
whispering
to
the
men,
and
frequently
visiting
the
forecastle.
When
I
came
on
deck
after
dinner,
the
whole
ship's
company
came
aft,
with
Slim
at
their
head,
who
in
their
behalf
told
me,
that
the
crew
had
determined
to
go
no
further
with
me
into
this
region
of
ice.
Will
Mackerel,
who
was
on
the
quarter
deck,
spoke
up
with
great
passion,
and
asked
Slim
if
he
meant
to
head
a
mutiny?
adding,
that
if
such
was
the
case,
he
would
let
him
see
that
he
was
a
man
to
stand
by
his
commander.
He
then
called
upon
those
who
were
of
his
mettle,
to
come
over
to
the
starboard
side;
which
some
few
did,
while
some
took
their
stand
amidships,
that
they
might
go
either
way,
as
circumstances
should
dictate.
The
greater
number,
however,
remained
with
Slim.
There
was
a
sad
uproar
for
a
short
time,
every
one
having
something
to
say,
and
to
enforce
with
an
oath.
Even
the
man
on
the
lookout
at
the
mast
head
came
down
from
his
station
to
take
a
part
in
the
affair.
