HARRY DAVIS FRANK TAYLOR
WEDS NURSE AT
FORT YUKON
Walter Harper, well known young
mission worker and the constant
companion of Archdeacon Stuck was
married on September 25th at Fort
Yukon to Miss Frances Wells, of
Philadelphia, who was serving as
nurse in the Mission hospital.
The newlyweds ere reported to
have left Fort Yukon for the States
where they will spend the winter.
George Hainzinger, of Fairbanks,
who had been in the employ of the
Carlisle Packing Company during
last summer, arrived in Nenana on
his launch Ram last night on his
way to Fairbanks for the winter,
after a rather lengthy trip up river
from the southern mouth of the
i Yukon.
j George was engaged in fishing
for the cannery company and his
operations were confined to the
waters in the immediate neighbor
hood of the mouth of the river, his
launch, the Ram, was also charter
ed by the packers.
His departure for Fairbanks, af
ter the cannery company had ceased
operations for the season, was de
layed owing to a breakdown in the
engine of his launch. The neces
sary repairs were effected at St.
Michael and George had to wait
at the mouth of the river until the
repair parts were sent to him.
I While awaiting his machine parts,
he had an opportunity to watch
the natives catching whales which
come up the river at high tide. It
is not generally known, but never
the less it is a fact, that the species
known as the white whale, which
run to a length of about 40 feet,
come up the Yukon for some con
siderable distance and are caught
by the natives in that neighborhood
for food. George says that he
watched them taking eight of these
great sea mammals.
On his trip up river he stopped
for a short time at nearly all of
the camps and settlements bordering
the Yukon ;/id reports that it is
very quiet at every place. This
was specially noticeable at Ruby,
he says, which was full of life when
he went down river early in the
season, and which is now all but
deserted.
! On the Tanana river he expe
rienced some difficulty owing to
the very low stage of the water and
was delayed considerably thereby.
From a point about ten miles below
Hot Springs the launch encountered
a heavy run of slush ice and her
progress was again considerably re
tarded. The ice was £eing thrown
by the Kantishna river, as, after he
passed the mouth of this river there
was hardly any slush ice on the
Tanana up to Nenana.
> He had intended spending a day
at Nenana, but the conditions in
the river and the heavy run of slush
ice which was noticed for the first
time this morning, caused him to
change his plans and he left this
morning for the upper town,
