"On the 3rd of January, in Latitude

27degrees, 26 minutes S., longitude 17

degrees, 29 minutes W., the weather and

all other circumstances being

propitious, we succeeded in obtaining

soundings with two thousand four

hundred and twenty-five fathoms of line,

a depression of the bed of the ocean

beneath its surface very little short of

the elevation of Mount Blanc above it."
