ESKIMO HUNTERS HAVt
REMARKABLE ESCAPE
Swept by the fury of an Arctic
storm from Little Squaw Bay,
Siberia, in a skin canoe, sis
starving survivors of. a party
of eight Siberian Eskimo hunt
ers recently reached the nat
ive village of Gambell on the
northern end of St. Lawrence
Island, in Bering Sea, after
an almost miraculous escape,
according to reports from
Nome. Forced by hunger to
start out after walrus, the
hunters set out from Little
Squaw Bay on February 2.
They failed to find walrus near
the shore and ventured far
■ ther out into the drifting ice
pack, where they were caught
by a severe Arctic gale and
swept still farther from shore.
On the fourth night out, they
pulled their boat out on the
ice to.escape the fury of the
storm and the next day the
ice carried them to the barren
shores of St. Lawrence Island.
Two members of the party
became lost on the ice during
the blinding storm and are be
lieved to have perished. An
other native was so exhausted
when the ice reached the is
land that he could not accom
i'V
ny his companions when
: they started ashore. He was
I Inter rescued by a search party
headed by Samuel P. Trout*
i man, the teacher of the Bur
eau of Education school on
! the island. The arms and legs
of the Siberians were frozen,
[their eyes were swollen al
most shut and their garments
were in tatters when they
! reached safety.
