DIGS CANAL TO
FLOAT GASBOAT
BACK TIDEWATER
A miniature Panama Canal was
dug down in the Oil Bay district last
winter by Nat White, well known
oldtimer of the Seward region who
did considerable prospecting in the
vicinity of Mile 15. Mr. White dug
unassisted a canal 1*4 of a mile in
length, 12 feet in width and four
feet in depth, in order that he
could get his launch, the Brighton,
back into deep water again, after
being flung high and far back from
the beach during a violent storm
which visited the bay last fall.
Ben Poindexter, geologist and engi
neer, who returned to Seward last
week from the Iliamna district, is
authority for the above facts of the
case. He said he could not conceive
how any one man could do such an
immense amount of w'ork in the few
months it was accomplished in. He
marveled at the high banks of froz
en blue gumbo, thrown up from the
bottom of the canal and the natural
engineering ability displayed by the
oldtimer. This spring, or rather a
few weeks ago, shortly after the de
parture of Mr. Poindexter from the
Oil Bay region, Mr. White was pre
paring Boucer creek into the canal
and float his craft down into the wa
ter. He believes this has been done
by this time, and should be arriving
in Seward shortly.
Mrs. Harry I. Staser and daughter,
Gene, will arrive in Seward on the
