    Letter 4To Mrs. Saville, England.August 5thSo strange an accident has happened to us that I cannot forbear recording it, although it is very probable that you will see me before these papers can come into your possession.Last Monday (July 31st) we were nearly surrounded by ice, which closed in the ship on all sides, scarcely leaving her the sea-room in which she floated. Our situation was somewhat dangerous, especially as we were compassed round by a very thick fog. We accordingly lay to, hoping that some change would take place in the atmosphere and weather.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Letter 3To Mrs. Saville, England.July 7thMy dear Sister,I write a few lines in haste to say that I am safe—and well advanced on my voyage. This letter will reach England by a merchantman now on its homeward voyage from Archangel; more fortunate than I, who may not see my native land, perhaps, for many yearsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Letter 2To Mrs. Saville, England.Archangel, 28th MarchHow slowly the time passes here, encompassed as I am by frost and snow! Yet a second step is taken towards my enterprise. I have hired a vessel and am occupied in collecting my sailors; those whom I have already engaged appear to be men on whom I can depend and are certainly possessed of dauntless courage.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Letter 1To Mrs. Saville, England.St. Petersburgh, Dec. 11thYou will rejoice to hear that no disaster has accompanied the commencement of an enterprise which you have regarded with such evil forebodings.
