Among the passengers on board
the stern-wheeler Alice, which ar
rived at Nenana from Fairbanks
yesterday evening, was Ne!s Har
kinson, superintendent of the Car
lisle Packing company. He is on
his way down to the south mouth
of the Yukon river, where the com
pany will operate a large floating
cannery this season.
He stated that the floating can
nery plant, a wireless plant and a
number of the employes of the
company are now on the way tc
the scene of operations on the low
er Yukon on the steamer Seattle
No. 3.
Mr. Harkinson expects to reach
the south mouth a few days ahead
of the Seattle No. 3, and will seleci
a suitable spot where the big barge
on which the cannery is built, wili
be located.
Immediately after the arrival oi
the Seattle No. 3, steps will be
taken for running the cannery, and
the company expects to take ad
vantage of the first run of Kinc
salmon. Last year, said Mr. Har
kinson, the company lost money
• 'II III II ill II n I ii mm I n mu i nm mi i mniM
! through its operations, owing to the
I iate start made. The floating can
nery was then located near Andre
.afsky, and the fishing boats supply
• ing the cannery with fish had lon<:
• distances to go.
His company expects to be on the
, field and ready for action when the
j very first run of salmon occurs. The
| operations of the outfit will also be
centralized, so that a waste of both
time and fish will be eliminated en
jtirely. The company also efpecti
to employ from 250 to -300 men
and to reach an output of from
j 40,000 to 50,000 cases for the sea

-CHURCHMAN TELLS
; OF LAST MOMENTS
!j OF EDITH CAVELL
e _
LONDON', Eng-.—“I expected my
sentence, but I am glad to die for
my country. In the sight of eterni
ty, I know now it is not enough
to love only your own country.
You must love all, and not hate
any.”
Those were among the last words
of Edith Cavell, the British nurse
who was executed by the Germans
in Belgium. The churchman to
whom they were spoken, the Rev.
H. S. T. Gahan, has just returned
to England from Brussels, where,
with his wife, he remained through
out the war.
Aided by a German Protestant
military chaplain, Mr. Gahan re
ceived permission, he says, to see
Miss Cavell in prison on the night
before the death sentence was ex
ecuted.
“With the chaplain,” Mr. Gahan
said, “I went to the cell door and
it opened and Miss Cavell stood in
the doorway. I had gone prepared
for a very trying scene. There
stood my friend—looking as calmly
sweet as anyone could look. She
was unchanged, except that she ap
peared better for the enforced rest
in prison. The warder withdrew
and we were not interrupted.
“I remember practically all she
said. She was thankful for the
quiet time, as her life had been
such a burden and rush in many
respects. She was not sorry to go,
for her life had contained so much
trial that she was weary beyond
endurance. ‘They have treated me
very kindly here,’ she said.”
The little communion vessels were
placed on a chair, and after the
service Mr. Gahan recited “Abide
With Me,” Miss Cavell joining un
der her breath.
“Then I felt,” the minister con
tinued, “that I must not stay much
longer, for I had been there an
hour. I stood up and said, ‘Good
bye,’ and we were face to face.
She was looking slightly strained
but nothing more. We shook hands

and smiled, and 1 added, 'We shall
meet again. Good-bye.’ ”
The great crime of hurrying the
execution, according to Mr. Gahan,
belonged to the military' governor
of Brussels, who would not wait to
communicate with headquarters.
LEROY MOYER LEAVES
FOR LOWER YUKON
Leroy Moyer, who had been in
the employ of the Alaskan Engi
neering Commission, left yesterday
afternoon on the Alice, bound for
the south mouth of the Yukon river,
where he will work for the Carlisle
Packing company during the sum
mer season.
Mr. Moyer was employed by the
company last year and acquired the
necessary experience in the busi
ness, as a result of which he was
induced to join the staff again, by
Superintendent Harkinson, who
passed through Xenana yesterday.
Mrs. Moyer and family probably
will go out on the last boat in the
fall by way of the lower river,
where Mr. Moyer expects to join
them.
