INTERIOR INDIAN CHIEFTAIN
PUNISHES ABDUCTOR WIFE
(From Anchorage Alaskan)
How an Indian chief near Cantwell
took the law in his own hands and ad
ministered punishment to one of his
[ tribe who had strayed from the paths
! of rectitude and honor, is portrayed in
i a story just brought to Anchorage by
| a recent arrival from the Interior.
The Indian chief upon returning to
; his home after a long hunt, discovered
j his wife had been unfaithful to him
j and leaving the home fires burning,
! had vamoosed with a young buck.
! With grim determination the chief set
j out upon the trail of the erring eou
| pie and finally after wTeeks of search
| ing located them in a valley far from
regular beaten trails. He forced the
I couple to return to Cantwell where he
purchased a large supply of provi
j sions. Loading the food supplies, his
wife and equipment upon a sled he
harnessed up the young buck and com
pelled him to pull the sled for sixty
miles over an unbroken trail. Arriv
ing at his destination the chief re
1 leased the culprit and told him tc
klatawa.
The buck finally reached the villagt
again in a starving condition V i?
said the chief and his spouse are liv
ing happily again in a valley rich ir
marten, fox and wolverine.
