Rear Admiral A. II. Campion of
Great Britain has published part of
letter received from Fort Churchill, the
most northerly part Of the Hudson Bay
company, which possibly contains news
Of Andree's fate. The letter Is dated
Aug. and is from A. d. Aston, q
nephew Of Admiral Campion, who has
been stationed for the last FIVE years at
Fort Churchill and who understands
the Eskimo language. The published
extract reads:
You Will no doubt be surprised to
hear that Andree's expedition has per-
ished In these parts. In the early part
Of spring an Eskimo named Old Don
AIDS Son, with several other Eskimos,
came to our magazine to make some
purchases. After they were through
with their business all Of them left the

AIDS Son, who asked whether the bal
loon had ascended again. as there were
two white men killed last summer in

were members of the balloon party.

but in compliance with my duties re-
ported 1t to DR.. Milne in Far York.
Later. however there came two other
Eskimos to our camp-Stockby and his
brother-and the news they brought
left little doubt as to the fate of An
dree's balloon expedition. Stockby's
brother while hunting for musk OK,
came across four white men who were
shooting deer. Several other Eskimos
who came upon the scene did not see
the deer and thought the white men
were making targets OF them. They
thereupon took their bows and arrows
and shot down two of the whites, one
OF whom died instantly. The other two
ran away. pursued by the Eskimos.
and whether they escaped or not Is not
known, -
"Stockby's brother saw the two dead
men, with the arrows still In their
bodies--one middle aged man. short.

younger man. The elder wore a
