 CREWTELLS OF CRUISE

did not know what to do with the mail We didn't want to drag it back to the schooner again, so we ca.Ised it on the ice. Coin started toward shore, and we felt sorry for hin. We headed for the schooner and finally got on board. We soon had a good fire going which certainly felt good. A few hours later Coin came aboard, he stayed up all night thawing out and drying his clothes.
 Oct. 31st. At daylight Heck ia Griftiths, and myself started out 10 get the mall which we had left cn the ice, but three hours later We were compelled to return to the Schooner without the mail on a.. count of being unable to cross very wide opening in the ice. Th3t same afternoon we started out again after it and couple of hoW.S later we reached the mali. The Captain and Griffiths didn't want to haul it back tC the schooner eo they sent me back for Coin. When We left the vessel, Coin and myself, took a lew fiabjacks along and we kept on mushing and mush- ing until after midnight, trying to locate Heckla and Grifiths. we couldn't find them but we reached the opening in the ice and the ice on the other side of the crack seemed TO be getting further away. We tramped around all night to keep from freezing.
 Nov. 1st. We started walking along the edge of the ice until a few hours later we came to where the ice was together and we started toward the shore We reached the shore during the afternoon and we thought we could see a tent village ahead of Us but we were mistak on. While going over the hill we saw lNO uOS Ou lIlc Hats. 1Olu fired few shots iron his re-ol9er but the mushers didn't hear them because they kept going right along.
 Nov. 2.-At three o'clock in the morning w reached the village named PitmiktClik. That same morning HecKla ard Griffiths also landed.
 Nov. 3. Heckla and a few natives went to Romanoff to see what could be done in regards to getting the mail off the ice and when they returned to Pitmikotlik they report ed that they were unable to go put ard get tt because the ice was nov ing very fast. Later Cn they went out and found tke mai. and brought , It ashore and turned it over to the Postmaster at St. Michaels The White Bear is still fast in the ice about 14 miles from Romanor.

As reported in the Industrial Worker news columns the native boy who shipped with the crew of inc schooner White Bear OH her un fortunate voyage October 26th is in Nome having arrived from St. Michaels ahead of the mail via So- lomor al whioh roint he joined the party of miner and prospectors coming from Council City.
 The boys name is Antonio Era beluk and his j1rrrey from St. Michaels was itself fraught with toilsome hardship mushing much of the way on foot and picking up a ride whenever he could.
 That part of his story relating 10 his experience with the White Bear voyage is here told in his own way being Gomewnat condensed from his diary:
 Oct. 27
 After we finished loading the five passengers came aboard at o'clock in the afternoon. We hove up the anchor and headed for Solomon. It was a moonlight night and the sea was calm. When we arrived off Solomon Capt. Heckla decided to drop the anchor and wait until daylight before trying to take the ho Aboat 5 o'clock in the morning we again pulled the anchor On-board and turned the bow Of the schooner towards the entrance of Bonanza river. But instead of going through the entrance we struck the bar, and we tried in vain to get her to float without unloading the freight, After we discharged the cargo the schooner foatcd, and the captain then went ashore and ate supper at he Dixon Hotel. The Captain went to the post office to get the mail and at S.30 Sunday evening Captain Heckla, engineer Coin, one passenger ramed Griffiths and my self went on board the White Bear and started for Nome, after we had been to sea about One hour and a half the engine commenced to be troublesome and finally stopped. The Captain and engineer worked on the engine from 10 p. NJ. until f A. M. before they got it in shape again. Oct. 29th. About 3:30 a. m the wind commenced to blow strong from a northerly direction and it increa ed very rapidly and about this time the engine became troublesome again and the little vessel was drifting to the southard very fast. It was now blowing like a hurricane and the sea was very rough. The Captain decided to head for St. Michaels if possible. He made a exc it. sail and then cut the dory adrift, while this was go-

ing On Coin and Grifiiiths were in their hunks suffering from severe attack of sea sickness. The sea S were occasionally coming aboard the schooner and one finally stove in the cabin door. Griffiths and Coin immediately turned out and started bailing water from the en- zine room, it took them several hours to do 50 as some was con tirual1y coming in. l was also kept busy pumping with the hand pump while Heckla was at the wheel.
 The weather was very cold and the Captain and myself were caught in our summer clothes. l relieved the CaptaiE at the wheel every half a hour, 1t was almost impossible to lerail there muck lC1ger because tt was sc very cold and our clothes were thin anG soaking wet. There was ove" two feet of water i'll the engine room when the engineer and Griffiths commenced bailing and they nearly froze their finger. off before they got they water out and the engine started again. We had drifted a considerable distance in the meantime and we were now in the vicinity of the ice foes. The Captain said it was best to bout ship and head in the Solomon di- rection, but shortly after the rchoonCrs bow was pointed toward Solomon the engine went peluk for good and We drifted against the ice.
 Oct. 30th. Early in the morning the four of us got ready to aban- don the schooner because 1t looked very dangerous to all of us to be caught out there anoi.g the ice like we were. The Captain and Grittiths made a sled from a couple of barrel slaves and two bags cf U. s. mail and suit case of Grifficths were put on that queer locking sled. Hecllla Griffiths and myself pulled the sled while Coin picked the trail fol us. After we had mushed about | five miles from the schooner. Coin disappeared through a crack in the ice, and two of us got there just 1 in time to haul him out of the ice cold water. Tho poor fellow was seeking wet and very cold so we had to take his clothes off right there to prevent them from freez- ing fast to him. The three of us shared cur dry clothes with him The ice was moving and the Cap tain decided we had better try and get back aboard the schooner, but Coin wouldn't listen to him he wanted to go ashore. I had practi- cally made up my mind to go along with him but on second thought said it was much better to stay with two men than to go along with one man and no grub. We
