MARITIME DISASTER ON WEST COAST . ,
The high seas running on the west coast of the pennmsula have worked
havoc with Chilkoot Barracks’’’Pacific Fleet”, consisting of two craft
of the type known as ’’submarine” due to the constant breaking of waves
over their thwarts, gun’Is or what ever one calls the uoper rim °f a
boat. One of the two sank in the fiats at the mouth of the Chilkatt
taking down with it a number of matresses being brought back to the post
for salvage, and other worn out property. The oars of the other craft
were all washed away, and Lt. McMaster, then at the pipe line shanty
was forced to hoist an improvised sail and run before the wind, finally
arriving on the home side of the Chilkat somewhere above Hindustucky.
The storm also caused a land slide temporarily blocking the water
line.
