Norway, 14/07/1732, ¶682:
14th. In the evening we arrived at the manse of Mr. Joh. Rasch, assistant pastor at Rorstad.2 He has been in the West Indies and Africa. He has also written a fine description of his journey as well as of various fish and plants. Gave me an honest welcome. I left him in the morning and travelled back to Törrfjord with the skipper. I now saw the full expanse of the Western Ocean and was told that if one were to travel due west one would come to Greenland.
