Untitled ("The Steamer Panther forcing her way through the hummocky ice")

Here we were surrounded by the wildest Scene possible to conceive. The largest Icebergs and heavy Hummock Ice seemed as if they enticed us amongst them to destroy us. While fast to one of the Icebergs a large Mass fell off, only Two Hundred Feet from our Stern, causing such a commotion in the Water that our Vessel rubbed her sides against the Iceberg in a very dangerous manner. We cast off and steamed to what we though a more safe Berg, and experienced while there a heavy Snowstorm.
