On the Ohotsk Sea we had calms with light winds, and made very slow progress.

One day while the men were exercising at the guns, the look out reported a sail.

We were just crossing the course from Ayan to Ghijiga, and were in the Danzig's track.

The strange vessel shortened sail and stood to meet us, and before long we were satisfied it was our old acquaintance.

At sunset we were several miles apart and nearing very slowly.
