that field for several years. The news comes to Rev. Father Allard, of Dawson, in a letter brought from Arctic Red river, and written by Father Jules M. Lecuyer, the Catholic missionary at that point. The letter was written January 15. 1915, and was brought to Dawson by Emile Herbert and John Stewart, who arriv- ed here last week from Arctic Rel river and Macpherson with furs. Didn't Arrive This Year
 Every summer for years Fathers Rouvicr and Leroux had been in the habit of going regularly to Fort Nor man to get supplies for the succeed ing winter. This summer they did not make the customary visit to tho fort. Father Lecuyer, in his letter from Arctic Red river says:
 "Father Rouviere and Leroux were evangelizing the Eskimos, who were coming every summer to the shores of Bear Lake. The two Fath- CTS, according to reports by Eskimos, died last winter. BUs how did they diet This is what we cannot say, since we have no precise information on the subject. Did they die of hun gar! Some are inclined to believe they did. Others are inclined to Dc lieve they were killed by the Eski- mos. On this subject it Is very prol- able we shall not have precise info1 nation before next summer.

 Father Lecuyer also makes refer ence ill his letter to il report brought to Fort McPherson and Arctic Red river to the effect that big game hunter had brought out further news on the matter. Emile Hebert and John Stewart, the men who brought the letter met at Fort Macpherson OH Charley Christie Hudson Bay employe, who brought the news down from Fort Norman. Speaking today in Dawson they said:
 According to the way Christie re ports hearing the story at Fort Nor man, big game hunter of means, who was anxious to kill musk oxen. went to the vicinity of Bear Lake and there met band of Eskimos com prising twenty men and eight women who were curiously attired. The men, he said, wore long white boards, or at least some of them did, and two of them were peculiarly garbed for people in such wilderness. One wore the cassock or gown of Cath ollie priest, and crucifix, and the other had on some of the mass vest ments. garments which would be en- tircly foreign to such people as Eski- mos or any other tribesmen in such a wilderness" :"

He reported they had guns, and one night when he was asleep they stole his ammunition. He then left hurriedly and made his way back to Fort Norman. and there spread the news. It is not believed the hunter had time to go far up the Mackenzie in the fall, and probably is at Fort Norman or some other station along the river this winter.
