Village Gossip
By MARY BAEN WRIGHT
Something struggling out in the
water between Hawkins island and
the mainland was noticed one day last
week by some employes of the Canoe
Pass cannery. Going nearer they
found that several natives in canoes
had roped a deer and were attempting
to kill it. The eannerymen rescued
the deer and warned the* natives not
to molest the animals again.
Three years ago thirty-nine deer
rounded up in southeastern Alaska
were brought up here and turned loose
—thirteen on Hawkins island and
twenty-six on Hinchinbrook. Dr.
Chase reports having seen fawn tracks
on Hinchinbrook island this season.
