“Saa kan hver Fornuftig vel dømme ved sig,
Naar Mennisker friske maa legges i Liig;
Hvad Ynk da maa være paa færde!
En Broder ey anden at frelse formaar,
Den stercke, den svage, har ligedan Kaar,
Dem hielper ey Læg eller Lærde.”
― The Trumpet of Nordland

“On January 23, Master Thomas Clark, who had so devotedly protected his young son, died, and the following day his son died, too. Two days later, the cook, Thomas Maclean - the oldest man on the voyage, who had endured hurricanes and scurvy and shipwreck - took his last breath. He was eighty-two.”
