 The mail carrier out from Anchor age. Alaska, wrote to the department under the date of March p, 1918:
 Your letter of February 27, 1918 is at hand, and I notice the late arrivals of mail as indicated in same. The whole trouble is on account of my dogs I was unable, and still am, to get fish for them, as it is not to be obtained in the country.
 The dogs I use on this mail are wolf dogs that have been worked on fish all their lives. It is almost impossible to change from fish diet to cooked feed and work them have done the best could to keep this mail moving and have had to stop and rest my dogs several times while the mail was in transit as they would not stand it.-All Of the late mails were caused on that account"
