Americas call to arms during the
war met with no heartier response
than from the residents of Alaska, and
among these none was more eager to
serve than George w. Porter, a native
resident of white and Eskimo parent
age, born in the Arctic regions, says
a dispatch from Juneau.
A letter from Porter to Rev. J. T.
Mcqueen, superintendent of missions
in Alaska for the Methodist church,
indicates the fruits the labors of mis-
sionares in the North are bearing.
Porter was educated at the Jesse Lee
home at Unalaska, and his zeal to
serve for your land and my land"
as he wrote, soon won him corporal
ship in the army. He served in Com
pany E of an engineers regiment at
Camp Humphrey, Va, and in his let
ter he wrote:
