The distance made good from port to port was 31.159 miles. At the Barbados two. of Lieut. Muhlhausen's friends left the boat. "In their stead I shipped a French lad, and sailed down to Trinidad," | he told a Daily Mail reporter, "At Jamaica my sole remaining friend was met by his wife so I lost him tool In order to carry on I took aboard a Panama Indian, and set sail through the canal to the Pearl Islands, and thence to the Marquesas. This stretch was over 3,000 miles. The next part of the cruise was to Tahiti, the Fiji Islands, thence, to New Caledonia and Sydney. Before leaving Australia Lieut. Mublhau- sen was joined by a young Austra lian named Tadgell, who wanted to come to England.
"Another stage of the cruise was completed when we got to the New Hebrides, the Banks, and the Solomon groups of islands. There after we touched New Guinea, the | Thursday Islands, and then, past- ing through the Torres Straits, we made Timor, Bali, Java, and Singa- porc.
