According to reports what ap
peared to be immense meteors fell
along the Kutkokwim river about;
the time Mt. Pavlov erupted and,
blew off its head, frightening na
tives and prospectors along a dis
tance of 100 miles or more. The
distorting of immense ice floes is
also attributed to the effects of the
eruption. The steamer Starr, en
route from Seldovia, was caught in
the ice near Barren island and held
there for some time, a circumstance
that Captain George, of the steamer,
who is believed to be the oldest
seafaring man in Alaska, deelares
to have been the first time ice has
ever been seen in that vicinity.
James Walker of Ketchikan, one
of the very first of the oldtimers
