CAPTAIN SIR MICHAEL WILLIAM
SELBY BRUCE, BART
ROAD COMMISSION SUPT.
ROSS KINNEY OUT FROM
INTERIOR, ON WATSON
Superintendent Ross Kinney of the
Alaska Road Commission who has
been in charge of road work in the
McGrath district, arrived in Seward
on the Admiral Watson today on his
way to Juneau. With him was Wm.
(Buckskin Bill) Pessinger, dog driver !
of that region who made the trip out
with him.
According to Mr. Pessinger, they
had one of the hardest trips ever ex
perienced, owing to the heavy winds
and extremely cold weather. Leav
ing McGrath in October, Mr. Kinney
and Pessinger came outside via the
Kuskokwim region. “For over three
hundred miles the trail was as bare
as the sidewalks of Seward,” said Mr.
Pessinger, “making it hard going for
the dogs. Along the Kuskokwim
the wind blew so hard that we could
barely make headway and at one re
lief cabin where we were stopping,
we did not dare leave the cabin for
fear of being swept off our feet.”
Mr. Pessinger, who has been in
Alaska for many years, and who was
formerly in the Copper River section,
said that in all his travels he had
never seen as bleak and desolate a
country as the Kuskokwim region in
the winter time.
Mr. Kinney, who has been in Kana
tak for several weeks awaiting trans
portation to Seward, reports that the
Standard Oil Company is still drill
ing and are now at about the three
thousand loot level, trying to drill
through the cement casing which they
placed in the drill hole to shut off
the flow of water they encountered
late in December.
After a brief trip to Juneau, Mr.
Kinney will return to Nenana, where
he will take a dog team to the scene
of his operations.
Mr. Pessinger, who has his dogs
with him, will leave on the next
train for Nenana where he will await
orders from Mr. Kinney and from
orders from Ross Kenny, and from
there will probably go to Ophir.
While at Kanatak Mr. Pessinger
saw Bob McIntosh and several other
oldtimers, and reports things rather
dull with them there.
