The Fairbanks News Miner
of March 12th, tells the unique
exper.ences of several Nome pass
engers enrouie to the Carnival at
Fairbanks.
Forced down last Monday sev
eral miles from Koyukuk while
enroute to Fa.rbanks from Nome,
Piiot Don Emmons of the Mirow
Air Service and passengers took
refuge at a native cabin and were
marooned there and report hav
-ng had the unusual experience
of encountering a violently insane
nat.ve woman ,n the cabin of
their refuge.
Arrivals on the plane report
that about the time they repaired
to the cabin for refuge until they
could get their ship ready for
another takeoff, the native woman
suddenly became deranged, and
was so violent it was necessary
to restrain her with force. Appli
cation was made for a marshal to
be sent there to take the woman
into custody.
With pilot Emmons during the
time they were at the cabin were
three of his passengers. Joel Voll
entine, Bill Porter and John Fost
er. The plane was compelled to
land because of the extreme cold
weather affecting the motor. It
was 40 below on the ground at
the time. Shortly after the plane
landed pilot Maurice King of
the Ferguson Airways happened
that way and took two of the
passengers. Miss Gertrude Johan
sen and Ed Steffen to Koyukuk
where they remained until yes
terday afternoon.
After the Elmmons plane was
in commission it went to Koyu
kuk, picked up the two passen
gers there and brought the whole
party to Fairbanks.
Miss Johansen recently was the
holder of second place in the fin
als in the race for title of Miss
; Nome and is in Fairbanks to act
[ as attendant to her opponent Miss
! Marguerite Lee who was elected
; Miss Nome and who now is Miss
' Alaska. Mr. Steffen was manager
of the Nome beauty contest.
