The table below summarizes the bag taken by Post employees and servants over the year; animals taken by itinerant Inuit traders and those brought to Lake Harbour from Posts at Cape Dorset, Frobisher Bay, and other locations are apparently not counted. The diary does not total the complete year's efforts, as other Post journals do, and archived account records were not obtained for Lake Harbour Post.
