Francis Smith, Commander During the Month of December, the Weather for the most part was clear with Sunshine, but intensely Cold. The thick Weather, which we sometimes had, was principally occasioned by the Vapours that arose out of Port-Nelson River, that River not being then Froze over. There were but three Falls of Snow during the Month, and that Snow dusty and small. The Frost was continual as in November, and part of October.
