Plover on January 30, 1848, on a three-year mission to search for and relieve Sir John Franklin's Northwest Passage Expedition of 1845. Hooper led a party along the coast of the Bering Strait as far as Cape Atcheen, and through the winter mixed with the local people, whom he called Tuski, and whose language he learned. The following summer, in one of the Plover's boats, explored as far as the mouth of the Mackenzie River. Finally, in 1851, abandoning the Plover, the entire search party traveled overland to New York, and reached England in October. "Hooper's health had given way under the hardships of three Arctic winters, and he became a confirmed invalid, relieving the tedium of his illness by writing [this] account of the expedition." He died the following year, aged twenty-seven. (ODNB) N. B.

The handwriting is hurried and hard to decipher. Begins: 'Dear Fellow Pilgrim / Before sending you the lessons, after reading your letter, & explaining your difficulties, I think it will be wise for you to go through the [briefest?] principles of Living in [true?] relation to your soul and [the?] body, so I am sending you a text book of a guinea course on that free.' He continues with an explanation of the intended preparation and its costs, after which the recipient 'will be more ready to understand the course and the main teaching which is a bit more advanced, & I am afraid until you have got a better understanding of certain principles that it would not do you the benefit you expect.' Signed, lengthwise up one margin and over the letterhead, 'W S Hooper'.…
