BUTTON AND A COIN sUPPoslD 10 HAvl b

4 BUTTON AND COIN 6UPPoSRD 10 HAVE h
LoNGED 10 MASTER PUTNAM.
Mr.. Henry d. Wolfe, late correspondent OF the
New York Herald, has written to the Navy de-
partment under date Of August 18th, enclosing .
o. s. Navy button AID q coin, which he got In
september, 1882, from q native Of Cape Prince OF
Wales, Alaska. The story OF the native was that
when the Ice broke up in July or August, 1882 q
body, clothed In deer skin, was washed ashore
near the cape, and subsequently washed away
again. as the attention OF the natives was directed
TO wreck that was washed ashore portion OF
the clothing, to which brass buttons were at
tached, was afterwards found on the beach. Mr.
Wolfe says that In January, 1883, while visiting
at Selaw1g river, he was told body OF large white
man, dressed in chwek-chee clothing, had been
seen or Point Hope by the natives, but when
touched with their spears IL Immediately sunk. Mr.
Wolfe says: 81 am led TO premise, under the cir.
cumstances, that this was Master Putnam's (ROd-
gerS) body. ana forward these mementoes that
they may be perhaps recognized" The memen-
toes enclosed are eagle cent coined In 1855 with
hole through 1t, and q small brass button with
naval device. The relics were the object OF con-
siderable interest at the Navy department this
morning. The button is smaller than any now
used In the service. Past engineer A.y.Zane, who
was shfpmate with Master Putnam On the Rod
gers, was positive tbatlt did not belong to Put
nam, as he was dressed entirely I'm deer SKINS and
wore no brass buttons The description OF the
body corresponds with that OF Master Putnam as
he would be considered q very large man when
compared with the natives
