I Bronson Damages Plane
l In Night Landing At
The Pilgrim Springs
Lester Bronson had the misfor
tune of damaging his plane while
attempting a landing after dark at
Pilgrim Springs, where he is
Seward Peninsula’s only farmer.
Due to fog, he was unable to
make a landing earlier in the
evening and it was not until 10:00
p.m. that he was able to see the
field.
His wife held a light on the field
to bring him in, but it was so
dark, he states, after he passed
the light that he overran the field
and went into the willow brush.
Bronson is leaving for the
Springs today with Willie Foster
to make the necessary repairs.
Bronson has a crop of vege
tables to be marketed soon.
REPAIRS TO NO. 5 PROGRESS
SLOW BUT SATISFACTORILY
According to officials of the
U.S. Smelting Co., work is pro
gressing satisfactorily but slowly
on the repairs to No. 5 dredge
which broke down this spring. It
is not expected that the dredge
will be able to operate again this
season.
NOTICE
To whom it may concern:
I, Clyde D. Glass, am not a
partner with Frank Coplin at
Council, Alaska. I am just hired
as dredgemaster for the mining
season.
