George Cromack, Former Nomcite,
Writes Of Happenings Going On At
Pioneers’ Home At Sitka. Alaska
The following letter was
received by Clerk of the
District Court, Aimer Rv
deen, from Geo. Cromack,
a former well known sour
dough from the Kotzebue
section, who is now an in
mate of the Pioneers Home
at Sitka:
Sitka, Alaska, Dec. lfi
Aimer Rydeen, Nome.
Dear Friend:
I would have written be
fore but 1 wanted to be sure
about this place be
fore 1 put anything on pa
per. I like this place, the
climate suits me fine. We
have had snow twice, but
only for a day,then it rains
and disappear. We have
lots of sunshine too, since
we came. The officers here
from the superintendent
down cannot do enough for
you, they are first class—
doctors and nurses are in
the same category.
lucre is close to two hun
dred here now,we have lots
of visitors as there is two
boats a week. Capt. Frank
Whitlarn of the North Star,
called in, as well as Mr and
Mrs Luther Dunbar of your
city and an electrician and
his wife came down on the
North Star, and came in to
have a look around and see
things for themselves about
the Home and the old tim
ers.
I am a long way better,
though I am short winded
yet, but I ca» walk a couple
of blocks without stopping,
that is something. We had
a fine Thanksgiving dinner
here and at the end with a
cigar from Marshal Thomas
Gaffney of Nome.
It is a great bunch here—
more big fat men, than
enough, looks like it agrees
with them. You get all the
tobacco you want, but you
have to roll your own cig
arettes. We never hear a
word from Nome here; but
there is one or two persons
on each boat from Fair
banks or vicinity, that you
can hear from there. I have
no more to write about at
present, with my best and
kindest regards for yourself
and wife, I remain yours
truly,
GEO. CROMACK,
Pioneer Home, Sitka.
Oh, yes—Merry Christmas
and A Happy New Year.
