Notice Requested
Airplane Pilots
Watch For Flag
Pilgrim Springs Mission,
Pilgrim Springs, Alaska,
September 12, 1936
Editor Nome Daily Nugget,,,
Nome, Alaska.
Will you please print the fol
lowing notice in your paper un
der the Aeroplane News? As an
introduction, I wish to say that
this Mission — namely Pilgrim
Springs Mission—is without com
munication of any kind with the
city of Nome. We have no tele
phone, no radio, and if anything
goes wrong, if there is a fire or |
epidemic or accident and help is
needed immediately there is no
way of letting the people of
Nome know our s;tuation. We
have recourse only to the mail,
once a month.
N >w planes fly over the mission
! several times a week, and some
i of the pilots have been told that
; when a black flag is flown from
| the high flag pole on the mission
. grounds, it is a sign of distress
j and a plane is needed, and the
pilot ' requested to land—emcr
genc case. Some know these
arrangements, but I fear not all.
I have now a member of my
community with an infected leg.
and it is necessary to get this
person to the hospital in Nome
as soon as possible. I have wait
ed two weeks for a plane, three
have passed over the Mission, &
either did not see the flag or did
not care to land on the field. The
field has been put in good shape
and pilots can land now without
endangering either their planes
or their lives.
Will you then put this notice
in the aviation news column, in
forming all aviators that in fly
ing over the Pilgrim Springs Mis
sion, if they notice a large-black
flag flying from the mast head of
the Mission radio pole, that this
black flag means a call of distress
; and a passing plane is requested
to land and see what is wanted.
Later on when wireless commun
ication can be established with
Nome, the black flag signal will
be abandoned.
Again I wish to thank you for
the copies of the Nome Daily
Nugget, that come to this com
munity by each mail. I am voic
ing the opinions of all at the Mis
sion, by stating that we enjoy
every line of the news items, and
only wish that your valuable and
interesting paper came to us daily
instead of monthly.
Respectfully yours,
REV. E. J. CUNNINGHAM
NOTE: Since the above was
written, Brother Hansen has
been flown to Nome and is im
proving at the hospital here.
