MARSHAL SETTLES
ESTATE OF MAN
LONG MISSING
On the circumstantial evidence
that Frank Imamura, Japanese cook,
employed at a camp on Turnagain
arm is dead, his estate was closed
here today and the money sent to his
people in Japan.
Imamura went insane several
months ago and took to the woods.
He was seen from time to time dur
ing the early fall, but could not be
caught. Winter set in with 20 below
zero temperatures and he was not
seen again, giving rise to the erason
able belief that he was frozen to
death as there are no cabins or camps
in which he might have taken shelter.
Deputy U. S. Marshal Evans was
named administrator and collected
amounts due Imamura from several
local Japanese, drew the remainder
of his cash from the bank and aftqr
paying the necessary fee in the U. S.
commissioner’s office, forwarded the
balance to Japan by postal money
order.

NEVER AGAIN !
Will the past twenty years of your life return.
Those years of time and toil are represented by
whatever you now own. If fire should come to you
have you an insurance policy that will put you on
your feet again, or will your only possessions the <■
day after be your experience, gray-hair, debts and
the sympathy of your neighbors?
