Herbert Spencer, who left Nome about a month ago. arrived here a few days ago pulling his sled. His story is a tale of hardship and en- durance and puts Spencer in class by himself when considered from the standpoint of toughness. Leav- ing Nome he got caught in the same blizzard that caught Rowe and he crawled into a torn down igloo be tween Cape Nome and Safety. where he spent two days without any cov- ering except two cotton blankets and a drill parka and no fire. He wrapped the blankets about his body, lighted a candle holding 1t close to his breast and so obtained enough warmth to keep alive. As soon as the storm subsided he start ed out again only to be caught by another storm this side of Solomon where his former experience was repeated. From there he came here. Heavy trails, strong winds while crossing Norton Sound in a blizzard, where lucky for him as he was overtaken by native team and given a lift to Bonanza. are but part of his story of hardship. After stop ping for day at Unalakleet he started across the portage in the face of a blizzard and when last heard from was stringing line of traps at Whaleback.
