Old Timer Won
Bravery Medal
The passing of A. C, Brown,
through accidental killing by his
son, ends the career of one of the
few oldtimers of Alaska. Brown
was born at Wrangell, Alaska,
some fifty-two years ago, and
resided in the land of his nativ
ity until his tragic death two
weeks ago. In his early man
hood days, he was an agent or
factor for the Alaska Commercial
Company, a rich concern which
held dominion in the northlartd
for a long period succeeding the
American occupation. While in
charge of a station at Istalick, he
heroically rescued the crew
of the S. S, C. G. White, which
was wrecked off Kodiak in the
fall of 1888, and received there
for a special reward from the
U. S, government. This is said
to have been the most daring
rescue in the history of the north
land.
In native nomenclature, the
name Knik means Skidina, or
Tent river; socalled because of
the fact that in early days the
natives maintained s summer
camping ground aULhe mouth of
the Knik river. Matanuska is a
pick-up name, having no special
significance, The native name for
the Matanuska river is Chatohka,
signifying a swift nmningstreapi.
A suggestion to Alaskans may
be found in the following: Simon
Dana, of Greenville, Me., a Pen
obscot Indian, is doing a good
business selling porcupine (piills
for toothpicks. He has eight |>or
cupines specially trained to ap
proach his camp and shoot their
quills Into a till) near the camp
door that is, he says so.
