The ice from the bay, and sometimes the ice from Fox Channel anc Hudson Straits, driveu ia by easterly winds, is drawn into this narrow channel and chokes it. Sailing vesecls are often congiderably delayed in $hi ry, but” a the swing of the tides opéa alternately the ends of the passage, st :2 work their way through with little difficulty. He says there is littie doubt that the channel on the southeast side of Manstield Isl is deep, and safe enough is, aod always free from ice, and that ) won th udson Bay Compaay’s never atcempt it is that they have no hart of it. His opiaion is that in ordinary » gessels may without difiiculty or ar navigate Hudson Bay from Jure to ° eo zy. P?
