Buuxi weedha soo socota: Si uu qorshihiisa u fuliyo, Stackhouse wuxuu markabkii Scott ee "Discovery" ka iibsaday Shirkadda Hudson's Bay Company lacag dhan £9,500 <unk> oo ah qayb yar oo ka mid ah qiimihiisii hore ee ahaa £51,000 <unk> wuxuuna bixiyay lacag dhigaal ah oo dhan £1,000. Stackhouse wuxuu ku dhawaaqay in inta lagu guda jiro safarka "Discovery" uu kabtan u noqon doono Arthur Harbord, oo ahaa sarkaalkii labaad ee "Nimrod" sanadkii
Shackleton safarkiisii 1907-09. Dhamaan saraakiisha iyo saynisyahannadu waxay u adeegi doonaan lacag la'aan. Stackhouse wuxuu shaaciyay magacyo dhowr ah oo iskaa wax u qabso ugu yimid socdaalkiisa: Richard Garsden oo ka tirsan ciidamada badda ee Hindiya ayaa noqonaya sarkaalka koowaad; Lieut. R. Beatty, oo sidoo kale ka tirsan RIM iyo adeer u ahaa Admiral Beatty, wuxuu noqon lahaa sarkaal maraakiib ah; Lord Congleton iyo duuliyaha hormuudka ah William Forbes-Sempill (oo loo yaqaan Master of Sempill) ayaa ku biiri lahaa shaqaalaha sayniska. Stackhouse wuxuu rajeynayay inuu helo adeegyada Tom Crean, oo la shaqeeyay Scott labadiisii safar ee Antarctic. Crean, si kastaba ha ahaatee, wuxuu isu dhiibay Shackleton. Safarku wuxuu taageero weyn ka helay Sir Clements Markham, madaxweynihii hore ee RGS oo wali saameyn ku leh; sida uu sheegay Markham, "Dhammaan kuwa qalbiga ku haya sii wadista caadooyinka ugu wanaagsan ee daahfurka Ingiriiska waxay ku biiri doonaan inay u rajeeyaan dhammaan guusha suurtagalka ah ee shirkadan". Xoghayaha RGS, John Scott Keltie, ayaa aad uga naxay; ma uusan tixgelin qorshayaasha Stackhouse inay yihiin kuwo wax ku ool ah, wuxuuna ka gaabsaday taageerada rasmiga ah ee Bulshada.
