ABSTRACT
There was quite an eastern emigration. Mr. Brinsmade had already taken his departure for Europe, with designs which will be hereafter explained. He left his partner, Mr. Hooper, to act in his absence. Lastly, Mr. Charlton found, or fancied he found, that he was dwelling in a wasp's nest, and that everybody was against him. . 'Irritated by the numerous insults he had received, and the open disregard by the government officers of his interference when British subjects were concerned; thinking also, that it was necessary that the representations to be made by Richards and Haalilio and their backers should be met on the spot, he determined to proceed to London, via Mexico.' "* He accordingly took wing from the islands in September ofthe same year, leaving as his substitute, Mr. Alexander Simpson, who had arrived there on business of the Hudson's Bay Company. Simpson was a relative of Sir George's, and brother to the discoverer of the same name, who, with Dease, completed the survey of the northern coast of America.
