Akaitcho and the guides proposed that two of thehunters should be despatched on this service, who had extremely quicksight, and were accustomed to act as scouts, an office which requiresequal caution and circumspection. A strong objection, however, layagainst this plan, in the probability of their being discovered by astraggling hunter, which would be destructive to every hope ofaccommodation. It was therefore determined to send Augustus and Junius, who were very desirous to undertake the servi...ce. These adventurous menproposed to go armed only with pistols concealed in their dress, andfurnished with beads, looking-glasses, and other articles, that theymight conciliate their countrymen by presents. We could not divest ourminds of the apprehension, that it might be a service of much hazard, ifthe Esquimaux were as hostile to strangers as the Copper Indians haveinvariably represented them to be; and we felt great reluctance inexposing our two little interpreters, who had rendered themselves dearto the whole party, to the most distant chance of receiving injury; butthis course of proceeding appeared in their opinion and our own to offerthe only chance of gaining an interview.
