sionary who converted most of the
Peary tribe of Eskimos including Kud
looktoo and Inukitsii. After being
j baptized Kudlooktoo told the mission
ary he shot and killed Marvin.
| The story was sent to the Danish
! government which sent Knud Rasmus
sen north to investigate. Rasmussen
obtained corroboration from Inukitsoo
and Rasmussen is returning in Put
nam’s party. Putnam said legal ac
tion is unlikely and no nation then
owned the murder scene. Under sub

Denmark took it over.
Temporarily Deranged
NEW YORK—Dr. Isvih Bowman,
president of the American Geographi
cal society, said he believed a tem
porary derangement, which is not un
usual among explorers, led to the
slaying of Professor Marvin. “The Es
kimo’s story indicated that from the
hardships, homesickness and danger
he was temporarily deranged when he
killed Marvin. Natural instinct is to
protect oneself.” Knut Rasmussen,
the Danish explorer, told him the
story a year ago, Bowman said, but he
did not make a formal report to the
geodetic society as he wished to sub
stantiate it.
