Plane Crash

ed. by which they were packed
& mile and a half to the rail
road and thence on the car to the
hospital at Nome.
When the plane did not re
turn Friday evening, Harry Nel
son of the Nome Airways had pil
ot Jack Hermann of the NAT
fly out and with Binx Seiffert
started to search. The plane was
round late Friday night silting
n the lake, almost completely
submerged, and the four pass
engers lying on the wing.
Harry .Nelson was landed at
Shelton and walked to the edge
of the lake with Graham Lam
mers Jr. The plane and Btnx
SeifTert returned to Nome and
a row boat was obtained, loaded
on Isadore Fix's tram car and
transported up the track, u .ere
it was “necked" across the tun
dra, arriving at the lake about
the time that they were brought
ashore by the other boat, from
Pilgrim Springs.
They did not arrive at X. me
until late Saturday night, and all
were badly in need of a rest and
were suffering from exposure.
After examination by Doctor
Charteris is was determined no
bones had been broken, and that
several days’ rest would put all
of them on their feet again.
The three passengers all were
loud in their praise of the manner
in which pilot Whaley handled
the plane and managed to get
it into the lake without anyone
being killed.
Neither pilot Whaley nor Har
ry Nelson were prepared to make
any announcement concerning
any further plans regarding fut
ure business.
