Mr. and Mrs. James A. Crawford,
of 530 Linden avenue, Memphis,
Tenn., who are making a tour of
Alaska in spite of .he e.Tons of the
White Pass to keep them on the
Canadian side of the boundary, ar
rived in Xenana yesterday or the
Sam Heeter power boat Mutt, from
Tanana, to which point they voyaged
from Dawson on the mail launch
Hazel B. Both Mr. and Mrs. Craw
ford, who have traveled extensively
in the States and in the much-ad
vertised portions of Europe, such as,
the Italian. Swiss and Austrian Alps,
the Italian lakes, the Riceira. Tyrol,
Norwegian fijords and the trossache
in Scotland, told a News represent
ative that the scenic wonders of the
Old World cannot compare with
the Alaska scenery thus far viewed
by them.
These things are not generally
known in the States and, m fact,
Mi. Crawford says, the ignorance
pertaining to Alaska travel is colas
sal. He thinks that if the country,
especially regarding routes of travel
and facilities for getting here, is
properly advertised, there will be
a great influx of tourists every
season.
Officials of the White Pass Route
tried to dissuade <he travelers and
many others from trying c> reach'
the Interior, beyond Dawson, and in
view of the fact that the tourist
agencies Outside know absolutely
nothing of travel conditions in the
North, the Crawfords had no way
of knowing how to reach Central
Alaska. Ticket agencies in the Ea=t ■
and South were not even aware that
Alaska had a railroad in operation
from tidewater to the Interior.
The Crawfords traveled in by way
of Skagway and made the trip to
Dawson on the steamer Casca. Ar
riving at the Yukon metropolis, all
of the other tourists, and there were
a considerable number of them, took
the advice of White Pass officials
and returned to the States by way
of the upper river. But Mr. and
Mrs. Crawford, J. P. Anderson, a
Juneau florist, and E. L. Marsh,
of Bridgeport, Pa., took a chance
and came on through to Nenana.
And they are glad they did, for
they feel well repaid notwithstand
ing the fact that there were no
tourist comforts enroute.
LONELY DEATH ON KOYUKUK;
TRADER S WIFE IS SUMMONED
According to news brought to
S'enana by the steamer Teddy H.,
Mrs. Jim Huntington, wife of the
well known trader at the Hog river
trading post, died suddenly of heart
failure during the absence of her
husband recently. Her only compan
ions. at the lime death occurred,
ivere three small children.
Mrs. Huntington was apparently
in good health when the Teddy H.
railed at the lonely post on the trip
up the Koyukuk river to Betties.
Five days later, when the steamer
was returning to Nenana. another
itop was made at the post, but only
the children were in sight when the
boat pulled up at the bank of the
river. On going into the store and
dwelling, officers of the steamer
found the body of the woman on
the kitchen floor, where she had
apparently fallen dead.
The husband had gone to Nulato
to get two other children, who had
been attending school at Holy Cross.
The members of the crew of the
Teddy H. buried Mrs. Huntington
and then took the children on board
the boat. Huntington and the two
other children were met about 20
miles below Hog river, and the sad
occurrence reported to them. He
proceeded to the post with all the
children.
