They landed near St.John's eight days later, having suffered dreadful hardship from hunger and frostbite. As he comments opposite p.22, "I had no time to take any precautions myself, I refused to put on my uniform coat, and foolishly threw it from me, having gold lace so unsuited to our position - consequently I had no other covering than a thin bleu jacket - no hat, neither shoes, or stockings, and only a pair of thin loose bleu trousers, without drawers - so equipped, it may be easily imagined what I suffered!". At the end of the work is a list of the crew and Fellowes adds below, "The surgeon (luckily for him) was left on shore the night of our putting to sea, so sudden was the execution of my orders to do so".
