Prince Is Dead
Prince has gone to wherever
horses go when they have lived a
good and useful life.
During his wandering about
town at night he had the misfor
tune of falling into a hole in the
vicinity of Third Ave. and E St.,
where he broke his leg and lay
for 24 hours or more before he
was found.
As it was impossible to get him
out due to his condition and be
cause he was in great pain, Police
Chief Clyde Glass reports, it was
necessary to put an end to his
misery.
Herman Hoop, Prince’s owner
who passed away recently, had
brought the horse to Nome from
Council. Besides working for Mr.
Hoop, Prince had given much en
joyment to the children here,
pulling them on a wagon and oc
casionally carrying them on his
back.
As no food had been ordered for
the winter, Prince met a timely
death.
The Road Commissioner has re
cently completed two bridges over
Glacier Creek and Rock Creek on
the Glacier Road. These two new
bridges will be a great help to
the operations of the Erickson
Mining Company in that area.
