miners who went to the frozen mines
last year and attempted to return to
the coast last April. 1t states that the
three men were overtaken near the
summit of mountain by a terrible
storm which drove them before it.
Their outfit aud their dog, were hurled
over "a cliff by the fury of the storm.
That night one of the men froze to
death, and at noon the next day an
other one persisted from cold. After
the third and last man of the party
had his ears, nose and four fingers on
his right hand and two on his left hand
frozen an inch back" he sat down,
wrote the account and then succumbed
to the cold. And thus will doubtless
perish hundreds if not thousands more
in the mad rush for Klondyke.
