Walt Sipprell, Alaska
Steamship Co. Agent,
Expected Next Week
Mrs. Walter Sipprell, wife of
the local Alaska Steamship Co.
agent, arrived yesterday, stating
that her husband is now in Bethel
for the unloading of the first
boat of the season at that point
and that he should be here next
week.
She also stated that instead of
waiting for him in Anchorage
she decided that she could’t wait
to get back to Nome. She was
delightfully surprised to find
their quarters all cleaned and
ready for occupancy.
Mrs. Andy Nylen writes from
Lyle, Wash., that 92V2-year-old
Andy is pretty frail and does not
get outside much of the time. He
sends best wishes.
