Log Books of the U.S. Revenue Service/Coast Guard, 19th and 20th Centuries USRC Bear – March 1892 to December 1893, US West Coast and Alaskan Waters Waiting for an editor

USRC Bear, possibly 1910 (photo by Corvino, click images to enlarge)

Read all about USRC Bear's general description, specifications and time line.

Notes:

1. Latitude/longitude, including for days in port, show representative decimal positions for each day, as calculated by the Old Weather project's analysis program. As such, they differ by varying amounts from the positions recorded, usually at noon, in the log pages. In addition, some latitudes/longitudes have been amended in edited logs for errors in the logs, for errors in identifying locations by the analysis program, or simply for greater accuracy. In all cases, refer to the log-page scans for the positions as originally recorded. Not all log pages contain this information and the ships' positions have therefore often been estimated.

2. Full account of any day is available by clicking on the link above that day. Any groups of links may refer to log book covers and introductory information; some may be blank.

3. Logbook events have been formatted but not edited. The quality and quantity of transcribed information therefore varies, and may include up to 3 versions of the same data depending on the number of volunteers working on the originals.

Berwick - deer on board to be entered at the nearest custom house

The master of the Berwick, as well as the boarding officer, were under the impression that the vessel was cruising under license, but a further examination revealed the fact that the Berwick is a registered vessel. Although the master violated Section of the Revised Statutes by attempting to import the reindeer (cattle) without entering them through a Custom House. The Commanding Officer, in view of the previously recorded facts, allowed him the privalege of landing the deer on the American side at any place other than Government Stations, with the understanding that they be put on the vessel's manifest and entered at the nearest custom house as soon as practicable.

Am Sch Berwick, Capt. Wagner, having on board 14 reindeer from the Siberian side, was found to be cruising under license instead of register. From an interview with Capt. Wagner, the Comd'g Officer found that the master of the Berwick had acted under the direction of Mr. Bruce, late Superintendent of the Reindeer Station, who represented to him that he had power to grant him the privilege of importing the deer. As everything tended to show that there was no intention on the part of the master of the Berwick to violate the law, the Comd'g Officer permitted him to return the deer to the other side, thinking that the trouble, loss of time, and expense to which the Berwick would be put, would sufficiently vindicate the law, until a report to the Department could be made.

Received 6 boxes of bread and one barrel of molasses from Reindeer Station for trading purposes.

After the mature consideration of the report that the whaling steamers Orca, Thrasher, Beluga and Mary D. Hume were probably in the ice and might be in danger, the commanding officer decided to return to Point Barrow;

Passing through scattered ice.

4 August 1893

At 8:00 sent officer to consult with the masters of the whaling vessels as to the condition of the stmrs. Orca, Thrasher, Beluga, and Mary D. Hume. It was learned that these vessels are in the ice-pack 15miles NNE from Pt. Barrow and their situation is thought dangerous. The considerations are such that the steamers can not be reached in order to render assistance, but in view of the number of lives - about 200 souls - and the valuable property involved, it is deemed advisable to await the developments that may be caused by a change of wind..

4 vessels stuck in pack ice 10 miles nne from Pt Barrow and their situation is thought to be dangerous.
