| Title: | Q. Riley, M. Lindsay, H. G. Watkins and F. S. Chapman at dinner. Rebecca (Eskimo) in kitchen behind |
| Description: | Riley, Lindsay, Watkins and Chapman sit at a table inside the wooden Base hut eating with knives and forks off plates. Rebecca, an Inuit, stands in another room in the background. There is a stove on which stands a big pot against one wall. Bunks full of boxes, bags and books are against another wall. Ropes, canvas, fishing lines and other paraphernalia hang from hooks on the walls. A printed plaque attached to the wall reads 'The power of man is as his hopes in darkest night the cocks are crowing in the sea roaring and the wind blowing adventure - Man the ropes'. |
