The cahin was we'll stocked with provi- sions. There was a rifle and shotgun belonging to the trapper, number of small traps and few large ones, an eight-horsepower ohnson outboard motor partially taken apart for drain ing, and eight red fox pelts. There also was a dory on the beach, moored to heavy drift log.
 A search of the cabin revealed three trapping licenses covering the years 1926, 1927 and 1928. The pro- visions were shipped from ,Seldeviay te 1liamna, from which point .Pentigisto apparently transp rted them to his camp on Chinik creekr : There was some gasoline in the smotofa tank and about half can'<hesides, but no lu- bricating oil could be faund.~
 ~s' It is the belief of Captain Cole that some mishap befel the trapper while he was out on his trap line or on journey to some more distant point. This theory- is supported by the fact 'that5 his sskiis, the possession of which is indicated by notations in the log, coult not be found anywhere about the cabin. Rust on knives in the cabin indicated, as we'll as the absence of notations in the diary, that the trapper. had geen gone for a consider. able time

Commissions Vinal at Seldovia, and the story was given to the'Anchorage Times by Captain Cole in the hepe that publication might speed the solution of the mystery.
 The cabin. referred to is used by the Bureau of Fisheries during the open season as a, dwelling for the stream guard statiofred,Son ghiniK. creek, at the. kamishak bay district-s When the streams guard was taken. to >Ghinik. creek short time ago, by the Teal it was discevered- that the cabin had been occupied during the winter by
