Dick Hall Leaving
It) a letter to the Editor of the
Nome Daily Nugget, from his old
sourdough friend of the Arctic,
Dick Hall, dated at Wainwright,
September 13th, 1937, we are ad
vised by Dick that he will not be
at Wainwright this coming win
ter but that he will betake him
self to the States, where fields
and pastuers afe greener,we hope
not to green that Dick will forget
the flesh pots of the Arctic. So
Dick tells us we will have to dis
continue his paper and cut him
off of our list, at least for a short
period.
Mr. Hall states the weather is
getting very cold for this time of
the year and it looks as if we
will have an early freeze up. It
froze over half an inch last nite.
I just came back from a trip
inland of over a hundred miles,
and saw about six pup fox, when
I should have been able to see
about a hundred. I make that
trip most every year to see what
the fur catch will be, said Mr.
Hall.
On that same trip I saw over
40 wolves—they are killing off
all the fur game and driving the
remaining ones out of the coun
ty'. The wolves will have a big
feast again this winter on rein
deer, as they only killed about
1500 last year in this district, and
mo>t of them not eaten on. The
wolf kills just for the sport of
killing, aud just eat the tongue
from some of them. The Game
Commission should get busy with
their game wardens and make it
snappy, as there won’t be any
thing for the wardens to do in a
year or two, Mr. Hall said.
We lost a good man here for
the Eskimos when Mr. Stowed
left this village to go to the sta
tes to work his farm. The natives
will sure miss him, as he was a
real man to help out the natives.
He was always on the go, and
Mrs. Slowed was a hard worker
also, with the native girls—learn
ing them how to cook their food
properly, and also in making
clothes for themselves and for
the children. They were in the
service six years with two child
ren.
I am busy building a maince for
our native preacher Percy Apol
lik. 1 built them a church last
summer and they have a full
house every meeting. The na
tives here, would rather go to
church than eat—they sure beat
the whites.
P. S:—East of Barrow the na- i
tives killed 107 wolves this sum
mer. After the snow is gone is
the best time to hunt wolves and
you get their young pups also.
Wishing all is well by you,
Yours very sincerely,
—R. S. Hall.
Wainwright, Alaska.
