two miles up the chignik lagoon
north of Chignik yesterday I found
and interviewed a half-breed Indian,
who is apparently the last person
who saw Maj. Frederick l.. Martin,
the lost United States aviator.
The Indians story clearly confirmed
previous conclusions of the Searchers
that Maj. Martin had turned north
ward across the Alaskan peninsula to
avoid a blind alley" which would
have been impossible in the snow
storm.
Failed to Cross Mountains.
In response to my questions, the
h half-breed, who spoke in fair English,
had taken the northern route. He
described his failure to surmount the
formidable mountain barrier which
lay in his previously chartered course.

about a week before. He said he had
seen a single plane, coming from the
same direction. in driving snow and
wind storm. The aviator had tried
the southern ravine, the route of his
charted course, but had circled for
five minutes and returned, as he
found he could not pass the 3,000-foot
mountain barrier.

Then, said the Indian, the plane few

Gated in the lagoon, and headed di-
rectly over the northern ravine, which
leads to Lake Chignik and the Bering
Sea. He said the wind was directly
from the north. This fits in with the
heory that Maj. Martin found An add
ed reason for taking the northernly
course in a desire to keep the wind
at his right. so that 1t would sweep
him naturally to his south eastern OBJ

Wedgwood's celebrated jasper ware
