This American whaler in the Arctic had been lying-to in a gale for four days when the depth began to shoal and before they could get under way she grounded on a sand bank and was lost. The sea being too rough for the boats, five men were drowned using spars to get ashore. They survived with hospitality from the indigenous people. Between February and April 1853 some parties attempted the 225 miles (362 km) to Cape Dezhnev cross the ice, the remainder were rescued by the Joseph Haydon ( Bremen) on 2 July who had heard of the wreck and had been searching for them.[99] |
