| Show PROFESSOR ANDREE there seems to be some anxiety now among the friends of M andree who left danes island on the alth of june for a trip in a balloon across the arctic sea the undertaking certainly was one of the most daring planned in this century and many believe that in the present imperfect state of aerial navigation it was entirely unjustifiable M andree told his friends in stockholm however not to worry about him should they not hear from him at all this year he regarded it as possible that he would have to spend the winter somewhere in the arctic regions at the same time it is well that prof has undertaken der taken to see that an expedition is sent out in search of the bold explorers they have no ship to fall back on when their supplies are consumed should they still be in the land of the living they are entirely dependent on what game they may be able to kill perhaps in an uninhabited region and during the long and intensely cold polar night |
