Towards the end of May, 1817, we again set sail from London. We made the Labrador coast on the 8th of July. But so completely was the coast blockaded by vast masses of ice, that we could not get near the land. In the night of the 21st, we encountered a violent storm, during which, we were in constant danger of being crushed between the fields of ice. Our ship sprung a leak, which, however, was temporarily so far stepped, that she could be kept afloat by pumping. For three weeks, did we remain entangled in the ice, during which time, we experienced many alternations of rough weather, fog, and pleasant, warm days; but were always more or less in danger from the ice'.
At length, on the 9th of August, we reached Hopedale in safety. Our feelings, when we were again permitted to set our feet on the soil of Labrador, after passing through such imminent dangers, I can not describe. They bore, perhaps, some resemblance to those of a poor sinner, when first he finds grace, peace, and the pardon of his sins, in the presence of Jesus.
