From The Hindu, June 19, 1925: Unexplored continent
London, June 18: An Arctic expedition headed by Mr. Donald MacMillan has started from Boston. It consists of two ships Bowdoin and Peary, the latter carrying three aeroplanes. It will proceed to Etah (Greenland) with the object of investigating the supposed existence of a vast unexplored continent between the North Pole and the North-west passage.
The expedition, with which the United States Government is co-operating, has aroused particular interest in Canada in view of her claim to all the territory between Canada and the North Pole.
