Frank C0tter, 70. B."
 Tells About Seward

When W. A. Dikeman arrived at Discovery Otter from Seward, aftet completing his trip over the trail, he brought letter to the Iditarod Pic ueer from Frank Cotter, who will b. remembered as one of the first settlers of this country.
 Frank is an cid newspaper man and knows what the public wants in the way of news. He sent in election re- turns, but, of course, he sent some news about himself and people every body knows, and it is a pleasure tc publish it.
 For instance, he speaks about Hughe, Dougherty, Captain L. B. Anderson and Jack Noon, all formerly of Fair banks. Anderson is mining and looks prosperous, he says, while Noon has d contracting firm and is getting the money. Dougherty is also mining and is doing very well. Captain Barnette and Jimmy Hamil, also of Fairbanks. were there the other day and said they liked the looks of the place. They also opined that they would be back there shortly, which looks as thongh Seward is about to notice something.
 He said the town was planning much on the trail to Iditarod, and was doing it's best to boost fot mai service. As for himself, he is running a store, and admits that he has no kick coming He wanted to be remembered to Ashby Bain, George Wallace, Doc Carter, the Maltby boys, Karl Thiel, E lily Wise, and all the rest that remembered him.
 Everyone who lived in the Iditarod last winter will remember the time he got lost in the fastnesses. He had a close shave and nearly passed in his checks. Everybody who knows him was glad that he didn't.
