Summary

This is a page of the diary of Thomas C. Ule, after whom Ule'eka is named. He worked on the ship with James Cook. The red smudge on the right is blood; Ule died two days later while writing during an ambush by the Kaekians. The signature on the bottom right reads "Patrick Solomon". He is believed to have worked on the ship with Ule, though it is unknown why or how his signature appeared there. Some believed that Solomon stole Ule's diary, but later DNA testing confirmed Ule's blood on the right.
