"All hope is not given up yet..."

Frank Hurley's Journal, October 26, 1915

"Extremely heavy pressure set in again opening planking 4 & 5 inches on the starboard side. While the ship twisted like a bow - at 7 p.m. the order was given to lower boats & heap with all necessary ---- provisions & sledges were passed onto the floe - out of immediate danger. At midnight the floes ceased working so that the leak took up somewhat. We work all night - taking watch & watch on the pumps. All hope is not given up yet for saving the ship. Six Emperor penguins watch the crushing of the ship."
