Capitán Lawrence Oates

"This was the end. He slept through the night before last, hoping not to wake; but he woke in the morning - yesterday. It was blowing a blizzard. He said, 'I am just going outside and may be some time.' He went out into the blizzard and we have not seen him since."

'I am just going outside and may be some time.'

El Capitán Robert Falcon Scott, escribe en su diario sobre la pérdida del segundo de sus hombres durante el regreso de su expedición al Polo Sur en marzo de 1912.

We shall stick it out to the end, but we are getting weaker, of course, and the end cannot be far. It seems a pity, but I do not think I can write more.

R. Scott
