happy 176th victory point note day to all who celebrate!
25th April 1848
HMShips Terror and Erebus were deserted on the 22nd April 5 leagues NNW of this having been beset since 12th Sept 1846.
The officers and crews consisting of 105 souls under the command of Captain F. R. M. Crozier landed here — in Lat. 69°37’42’’ Long. 98°41’
This paper was found by Lt. Irving under the cairn supposed to have been built by Sir James Ross in 1831 — 4 miles to the Northward — where it had been deposited by the late Commander Gore in May June 1847.
Sir James Ross’ pillar has not however been found and the paper has been transferred to this position which is that in which Sir J. Ross’ pillar was erected.
Sir John Franklin died on the 11th of June 1847 and the total loss by deaths in the Expedition has been to this date 9 officers and 15 men.
[signed] F. R. M. Crozier Captain & Senior Offr

this has probably been said, but the way that in that Ep 1 dinner scene Fitzjames has pushed away from the table to be almost parallel to Sir John whereas Crozier is sitting neatly to the side of it like the rest of the officers...
The visual distinction of James as the de facto Second when what he's bringing to the table is literally dramatic recountings of his prior adventures, unlike Francis' actual Arctic experience.. ugh, this damn show. it hurts me.
