Returned From Arctic Seas

Mr. V. Stefansson, formerly an assistant in the department of ethnology, has returned from an extended trip to the Arctic regions, on which he started in the spring of 1906. Mr. Stefansson was a member of the Mikkelson expedition, and was charged with the commission of collecting archaeological and ethnological material for the Peabody Museum. The ship on which the party sailed was wrecked in the ice and they were forced to return overland through Northern Canada.

The material which Mr. Stefansson collected for the Peabody Museum was shipped on a whaling ship to San Francisco, and will not arrive in Cambridge for some months. Mr. Stefansson will shortly go to New York, where he expects to write an account of his experiences in the Arctic regions.
