He it was who, on this occasion, first surveyed Regent's Inlet, down which we are now sailing with our Phantom Ship.

The coast on our right hand, westward, which Parry saw, is called North Somerset, but farther south, where the inlet widens, the land is named Boothia Felix.

Five years before this, Parry, in his third voyage, had attempted to pass down Regent's Inlet, where among ice and storm, one of his ships, the _Hecla_, had been driven violently ashore, and of necessity abandoned.

The stores had been removed, and Sir John was able now to replenish his own vessel from them.

Rounding a point at the bottom of Prince Regent's Inlet, we find Felix Harbour, where Sir John Ross wintered.
