BRITTON BARR
HAS FINE HUNT
SKILAK LAKE
Secures fine specimens of Sheep and
Bear—Hunted in District for Over
Three Weeks.
RETURNED TO LAKE TODAY
Frank Towle Guiding—Dr. Barr Mis
ses Out on Fine Hunt—Hard Work
Says Young Barr.
A paunch acquired by five years of
inactivity, was, according to Britton
Barr, son of Dr. Barr, both of whom
are just completing their third trip to
Alaska, lost in apparently a few short
hours, while he was in the hills after
big game. In other words, during his
three weeks’ hunt in the Skilak Lake
country, Mr. Barr returns to Seward
with a fine bag of specimens, about 20
pounds lighter in weight, and in fine
enough physical shape to take on a
* bunch of wild cats.
Gets Sheep and Bear
Two fine black bears and two ex
tra-good sheep specimens were shot by
Mr. Barr near Skilak lake. Frank W.
Towle, who resides at the lower end
of Kenai lake, was guide for Mr. Barr,
on the hunt, and proved to be a very
capable man, Mr. Barr said. It was
Mr. Barr’s first hunt in this district
and this morning, upon finding out
reservations could not be secured to
Seattle on the steamer Northwestern,
he has decided to go back into the
Moose Hollow country, for an additi
onal week’s hunt, planning to return
to Seward next week and board the
S. S. Alaska for the south.
Storm Bound Three Days
During the heavy rainfall about a
week ago, Mr. Barr and guide Towle
were storm bound on Caribou Island
for three days. The nights in the
sheep country are beginning to get
cold, and when they left the district a
few days ago, the moose were just be
ginning to run. They frequently
counted bunches of from 300 to 400
I moose without moving from their
tracks.
Wary of Big Eagle
While packing out the specimens a
large golden eagle, with a beautiful
wing spread, flew down out of the sky
and for a considerable distance hover
ed over Mr. Barr at an elevation of
about 35 feet. It is believed the
eagle, seeing the game on top of the
pack, thought he had ran into some
new fangled specie of Alaskan wild
game, and was considering whether it
would be abvisable or not to take a
crack at it, when guide Towie finally
chased it away.
Travel fast waters
The greatest thrill of the entire trip
though, Mr. Barr said, was when they
I traveled down white water, shooting
the, many rapids in the river. “I guess
that is the kind of a thrill which one
reads about, and which comes once
in a lifetime,” Mr. Barr said, “for there
certainly was a thrill connected with
this form of traveling.”
“Dad” Should Have Been Along
Dr. Barr would have liked very much
to have accompanied his son on the
hunt, for it is the first time they have
been separated on any outing or hunt
ing trip. If Dr. Barr or his son had
been more familiar with conditions in
the Skilak lake region, Mr. Barr said
he would have enjoyed having his dad
with him, for it was learned that the
destination could have been reached
with little actual walking, practically
the entire distance being covered by
boat, and the doctor could have re
mained at the base camp with a com
panion while his son roamed the hills.
“Next year I certainly will go out with
him,” Dr. Barr stated.
“We expect to hunt in this district
next year, and also at a future date,
have a good hunt in the interior. I
have long been planning on making
the Yukon river trip from Dawson to
St. Michael, and we may make that
trip next year.”
Dr. Barr and his son have a summer
home at Wequetownsing, Mich., a sum
mer resort, and in the winter they
move down to their home in Florida.
“Wequetownsing” is an Indian name,
Dr. Barr explained, meaning a little
bay within a big bay.
Dr. Barr for many years enjoyed the
largest practice in New York city, and
is a nationally known physician and
surgeon. He retired some years ago.
