•• ' . j
(Anchorage Times)
Flying in over a course of nearly
400 miles from Kanakanak, near Dil
lingham, Pilot Murrel Sassen of the
Star Air Service brought his plane
down on skiis at 3 p. m. Nov. 14 to
a perfect landing on the bare
ground at the Anchorage airport, de
livering here little Betty Smith, age
three, and little Susie Waskey, age
four, both of whom were seriously
hurt near Dillingham Friday. .Mrs.
Waskey, mother of Susie, came with
the party, and Dr. A. S. Walkowski,
who flew from Anchorage with Sas-1
sen also flew back with the party.
Sassen made a non-stop flight both
ways, landing and taking off on the
ice of a lake near Kanakanak. He
reports the ice none too thick there
but it held up all right even though
! it cracked some under the load. The
I landing here was more difficult be
cause of the fact there was not a
particle of snow on the ground.
Both children were in plaster
casts, which the doctor had put on
them at Kanakanak. Both children
were hurt when a log rolled off a
building while being placed in a
I high position by men erecting a
new structure for the Seventh Day
Adventists of Wood River, near Dill
ingham.
An X-ray examination made yes
terday immediately after arrival of
the plane showed that little Betty
Waskey has a fractured pelvic bone
and little Betty Smith a fractured
right hip bone. Both are resting
easily and are cheerful and are get
ting on nicely at the Anchorage Hos
pital. Betty is the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Ray Smith and Susie the
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank
Waskey. Mr. Waskey was Alaska’s
first delegate to Congress. Mrs. Was
key is at the Hotel Anchorage.

33 YEAR OLD
I
MYSTERY OF
KLONDYKE
Many old timers who joined the'
great gold stampede to the Klon
dike, not a few of whom are now in
Anchorage, will recall an incident
in the fall of 1901, 33 years ago,'
when George Burke, a wealthy min:
er who was located on Whiskey
Hill off Hunker Creek, was myster
iously robbed, says the Dawson
News. The robbery took place
while Burke was away from his
cabin, attending a dance on No. 6
Below, Hunker Creek, at the John
son roadhouse. On returning home
from the dance he found that his
cabin has been entered and a large
steel safe that contained from $10,
000 to $12,000 in gold dust had dis
appeared into thin air. No clue or
trapes of its cartage or who was
guilty could be found; it‘was a mas
terpiece of an expert burglar. The
police worked on this case for sev
eral months, but the solution of the
mysterious disappearance and the
safe itself were not forthcoming and
this crime was forced to be tabled
as one of the very few criminal of
fenses in the North that went un
punshed.
Recently, 33 years after the crime
and 23 years after the tragic death
of George Burke in the city of Bue
nos Aires, Argentina, the stolen safe
has come to light, but thoroughly
rifled and the contents gone. Pat
Brady, the well-known gentleman
from the Emerald Isle and indiv
idual miner on Hunker Creek for
the past umpteen years, While cruis
ing for timber on Slate Creek, four
miles from the scene of the early
day robbery, found the safe beside
a large stump on top of a bench. In
his conversation with the News
man Brady stated that the cutting
of the steel hinges was skillfully}
done, and no doubt was performed j
by a member of the light-fingered
gentry who was a mechanic and
had the proper metal-cutting tools
and knew how to use them.

AN OPEN LETTER
■Jr
NOVEMBER 7th, 1934.
TO THE PEOPLE OF NOME :
IY
Believing it is pardonable, we take pride in bringing to your attention
the service we have given over a period of many years to Nome, and particularly
the service given you since the disastrous Are which destroyed practically all of
this city’s business section.
Within twenty four hours after the fire started our fast steel cargo
and passenger steamer the S. S. Dellwood, was on berth ready to receive cargo
for Nome. She was loaded with all dispatch and when ready was sailed from
Seattle to Nome. Immediately the S. S. Dellwood sailed, another of our steel car
go steamers, the S. S. Depere, was put on berth to take care of all the overflow
cargo of the S. S. Dellwood’s and to accept any new cargo offered. We want to
particularly point out the speed with which these ships were loaded and sailed.
Upon arrival here the two vessels discharged their cargoes with all dispatch and
have now returned ta Seattle.
The United States Government gave to Nome for emergency relief
purposes the sum of FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS. The ALASKA STEAMSHIP
COMPANY, in cutting their freight rates in half, contributed practically the same
amount. With that, this company, if it could be possible, gave even more prompt
and better service than ever before. This service was badly needed to help recon
struct Nome before winter weather set in. It was given gladly and whole heart
edly and we are proud that we did give it.
To give Nome people full opportunity to order needed goods, after
all other steamers had sailed for Nome, our S. S. VICTORIA sailed later than
she has for many years past. She has discharged her cargo for Nome and is now
nearing Seattle, the termination of her voyage.
Nome, rising Phoenix like from the ashes, is an exemplication of the
spirit of the far north showing the will tp conquer under the hardest of con
ditions. We are proud to be associated with you and to have had a part in the re
building and reconstruction of a bigger and better Nome. We are proud to have had
such an extensive part in this work and we would like to compliment you upon ■
your integrity, your spirit, your strong heartedness, and place with it the sincere
hope that you will never again be stricken as of this recent fire-——
Most sincerely,
ALASKA STEAMSHIP COMPANY
Jas. P. Daly, Agqnt.
