At 8 o'clock this morning, practically the whole expedition staff, convicts, soldiers and Dayaks - were lined up and photographed. Leroux (C.C.F.M. Le Roux) took a couple of pictures with his panorama camera and Dick (R.K. Peck) took movies of the crowd" in: Journal of Matthew Stirling, edited and annotated by Paul Michael Taylor, Asian Cultural History Program, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institute Washington.<BR> <BR> Stanley Hedberg schijft in zijn verslag: "Thursday June 10 1926. The weather didn't look so good in the morning when we arose. It was cloudy most of the morning. Leroux (C.C.F.M. Le Roux) had the entire outfit, soldiers, convicts, Dayaks and the staff lined up for a picture with his panorama camera. Dick (R.K. Peck) got movies of it. It is an impressive bunch for in numbers it runs considerably over three hundred people. That is many mouths to feed in this country when everything has to be carried here. I also shot a close up of the staff with the graflex. The Dutch army men were all dolled up in their Khakai (sic) uniforms and were spick and span. We with our beards and ordinary clothes looked more like jungle explorers than they did but they will probably say we are slovenly. We sure look the part. However, one doesn't come to New Guinea to dress up. We came here to explore" in: Journal of Stanley Hedberg, edited and annotated by Paul Michael Taylor, Asian Cultural History Program, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institute Washington.<BR>
