Ben Evans of Wainwright Writes
 What He Heard About Polar Bear
 At Barrow Hospital Fire Recently

Ben Evans of Wainwright writ es to the Nome Daily Nugget, ev- identity not seeing any items of news from that far northern point and has drawn a comical story of the recent fire at Point Barrow
 Following is the letter:
 Wainwright, March 9, 1887 To the Editor of the Nome Nugget
 I have had some access to the Nugget lately and am very much impressed by some of the items from Wainwright. So inn pressed, indeed, that I am remind ed of the story that is now in circulation about the Polar Bear the night the Barrow Hospital burned.
 It is related that girl while running to the fire saw a bear, and in the darkness, thinking i, was a man, she asked him how the fire started. He turned around
The Nome daily nugget., 1937-03-27

and was she surprised to see that it was a bear, and much more sur prSed when he replied God on ly knows. They both ran to the fire and the bear had his hair singed in the flames.
 I can't vouch for the truth of the story but if it IS true it is the most remarkable occurrence sin the famous conversation between Balaam and his humble ass.
 It is not related whether the conversation was in Eskimo or English, but neither is it report cd what language the Balaam- Ass conversation was in and I was not an eye witness in either case. Signed: Ben Evans.
