Captain MacMillan sailed for the Arctic in June 1927, from Wiscasset, Maine, on the schooner "Bowdoin", with the purpose of establishing a scientific research station on the north coast of Labrador.

She remembered that when the Young Plan Committee was sitting in Paris, Britain's great Banker Baron Revelstoke had gone to bed similarly weary and died of heart failure before dawn (TIME, Jan. 14 to June 17). Banker Delacroix's sleep seemed normal, however, and soon his wife was asleep too. About 5 a. m. she felt his hand on her shoulder: "I am feeling ill." To the telephone flew...
...once, but twice he came upon paintings which surely were not in Fogg when the Vagabond paid his last visit to the museum in June. Both of these treasures are now the property of the University and both are deserving of every true Vagabond's interest...
