FORMER METROPOLITAN
FIREMAN, SEMITE
A former metropolitan fire
fighter has been discovered living
in Seward. The former "ladder
climber” is P. C. Mahle, local resi
dent and employe cf il.e Alaska
Railroad.
Recently, when fire threatened
the roof of the Sheldon residence
(and local fire-fighters experienced
(difficulty in reaching the blazing
portion, he is reported to have dis
played his agility when it come- to
scampering on roofs. Mr. Mahle is
(reported to have seized a bucket of
(water, climbed a ladder to the roof
j where another firman found he |
(could not negotiate any further,:
(crawled over the other man and
(continued on up the steep roof to
the blaze and extinguished it. The
steeper the roofs are the better he
likes them.
The Kobuk is not a poor man s
country dut to its inaccessibility
which makes the cost of trans
portation very high, and the
ground thus far is low-grade.
