The word comes from the westward
fthat Harry Hughe? and E. K. Rowley,
> two Yakauga beach miners, lost their ,
lives while attempting to make Kyak
from Yakataga. They? began the
journey with Frnest and Ira Williams, j
The party was overtaken by storms and i
the two first named gave out and were
left behind. The party had first missed
the trail and gotten lost. They were
out more than a week with only three
d*ys' provisions. In their wanderings
the Williams brothers discovered a
cache of canned oeef and a'terward
ran into a camp of trappers. Searchers
hsd failed to discover the missing men
when the last, boat left from th* west
ward. Both of the lost men have gold
dust with them.
No di-ubt is felt at Kyak but that
Suges acd Rowley perished from
drowning in swollen streams or starva
tion and hardship in the woods.
