Paleographical Challenge #14

February 17, 2020

By Kathryn James

Today’s puzzle pictured above for the Paleographical Challenge.  Suggested solution to yesterday’s challenge:

December 23 - 1695 Cam to fields of Ice Expecting
to be cut asunder Impossible to return to deadmans
Bay the wind fortunately shifted at 3 in the mornign
carried us into an open field of ice where we sheltered

Thomas Bowrey, Logbook and journal, p. [144].  N.p., early 18th c. Osborn fc177
