Xmas In Arctic
Recalled With
(By The Associated Pr*-s«i
WASHINGTON, Dec. 25—Brig.
Gen. David L. Brainard, United
States Army, retired, last survi
vor of the tragic Greely Expedi
tion to the Arctic, which in 1881
set the Farthest north record up
to that time, observed his eight
ieth birthday anniversary last
night in Washington. He receiv
ed the honorary membership
scroll of the American Polar So
ciety.
Gen. Brainard was one of twen
ty-five members of the United
States expedition headed by Maj.
Gen. Adolphus W. Greely that
was sent in 1881 to establish one
of thirteen circumpolar stations.
The party reached farther north,
84 degrees and 21 minutes, than
any previous record; discovered
land north of Greenland and
crossed Grinneil Land to the
Polar Sea.
Two Relief Parties Failed
Two relief parties failed to reach
the Greely expedition, which re
treated south to Cape Sabine,
where relief still failing, the par
ty largely perished of starvation,
only seven being found alive on
June 22, 18B4, by the third relief
expi'd:tion headed by Capt. Win
field S. Schley, United States
Navy.
Recalled Ytiletides in Arctic
Gen. Brninard recalled last nitej
the first Christmas, that of 1881,
of the Greely expedition, was
gay with the giving and receiv
:ng of presents, extra rations of I
food and additional allowances
of rum. He declared the second
Christmas, that of 1882, was fair
enough, but the impending food
shortage dulled the joy of the
occasion. Of the third Christmas
that of 1883. he said he did not
like to remember.
