Father Petelin Thought to Be
Lost While Crossing Slieli

Special to Tlie Daily Gateway.
Afognak, Oct. 14—Considerable anx
iety is felt here about the Rev. Alex*
! ander Petelin, who left in a bidarkf
j for the mainland two months ago on
his annual trip to attend to his clerical
duties in the villiages that do not sup*
! port a resident priest. Nothing has
| been heard from him since his depart*
! ure from Afognak. and his friends fenr
i
some harm lias befallen him.
Although a very large man, weigh
; ing considerable over 200 pounds, this
intrepid priest has repeatedly crossed
I Shelikof strait, one of the mostdan
! gerous passages in these waters, in a
bidarki to attend to the spiritual needs
: of the people entrusted to bis charge.
: Father Petelin usually makes this trip
early in the year, but last spring lie
was delayed by the sickness and death
| of his wife, hence the lateness of his
trio and its greater danger.
