Bereik en inhoud
This file contains several papers that refer to Ebierbing and Tookoolito, also referred to as Joe and Hannah, an Inuit couple who are best known for assisting British and American Arctic expeditions between 1860 and 1880. The first document is a paper that serves as a biography for the two. The second document is a series of excerpts from Under The Northern Lights by J.A. MacGahan, and Life with the Esquimaux by Captain Charles Francis Hall, that all reference Ebierbing in some way. Next is an interview carried out with Ebierbing from Under The Northern Lights. The next few documents are transcripts of interviews with either Ebierbing or Tookoolito, recounting the voyage of the Polaris: the documents seem to be court examinations of witnesses. Also newspaper articles discussing the two. Biography of Ebierbing, as well as several handwritten notes.
