WANTED — A LOT
A museum is planned by Sally
Carrighar for the preservation of
relics of Nome’s colorful past. The
collection will center about the
belongings of a famous dog mush
er and mining man. In order to
provide sufficient space for the
project it will be necessary to
move the building belonging to
the VFW now located on Second
Ave., just west of Miss Carrighar’s
home.
A lot not smaller than 25x75
feet is desired on which to move
the Veterans’ building. Anyone
having such a lot for sale, or
having information of such prop
erty may contact the Nugget for
further particulars. It is hoped
that this civic project, which
should prove most interesting to
residents and tourists alike, may
be started soon a large scale.
