Phil was kind, always kind. even

FOOT WAS FROZEN
SOLID

Fairbanks, JAN Chester Spen-
Ger, the young signal corps operator
who took such excellent care of H. H.
Meyer, the unfortunate trapper whose
feet were frozen at Mimic recently, is
in the city, having proceeded leisure
ly to Fairbanks after turning his
charge over to Deputy Marshal Han
son at the Ohio roadhouse.
Spencer gives de1a1.s OF the re-
markable fight for life put up by
young Meyer as he lowered over a
small, wavering fire in the woods
back from the Tanana river. trying
desperately to keep the fire going
with only a hunting knife to cut the
fuel, and at the same time keep his
feet and hands from freezing.
He was there all night, keeping up
the losing battle with the cold, and
at last, in desperation, struck out
for the long walk to the Mimic sta
ton.
He got there about 10 O'Clock
Tuesday morning in a pitiful condi-
ton.
Spencer said his right foot, mecca
sin, sock and all, were frozen solid.
They tried to peel ffthe moccasin
in strips, but could make no progress.
At length a sour-dough by the name
of Owens told them to dip the foot
in hot water, taking it out quickly
and alternating with the cold water.
In this way the moccasin and sock
were removed The foot itself was
as cold and hard as bone
At the hospital Meyer is resting
easily and has hearty appetite. His
feet are in very bad condition, with
the doctors still waiting for develop
mentS.
