Following the directions of a chart drawn by Nemtinof, they reached Bell Sound on June 16th. Ryadin at once came on board from the settlement with news that all the winterers were well, though some had been sick. After more than a fortnight had been spent at Bell Sound the ships sailed on July 3rd to pursue their mission to the north- ward. They accomplished nothing of importance. They sailed to and fro amongst drift ice, sometimes in sight of land, sometimes not. This kind of work soon tired t...hem. On the 6th of August they were back again at Archangel. 1 There is a short, clear account of this expedition in William Coxe's Russian Discoveries, 4th edn., London, 1804, 8vo, pp. 398 et seq. His second Expedition 265 Next year, 1766, Tschitschagof was again sent to the arctic regions. He sailed on May 19th and reached Bell Sound on June 21st. Firing a gun to inform the winterers of his arrival he received no answer. Ryadin and his surviving companions were away on a hunting trip to the Dun Islands.
