Mushers Oti For Knik
Karly Friday morning ('apt. Duke
Harris and his brother Al. Harris
together with Charles Harper and his
brother Ah, started with outfits for
Knik. Duke Harris will remain at
Knik, but the Harper boys and Ah
! Harris will take an outfit, to Cash
creek, a tributary of the Kahiltna,
where they intend to prospect this
summer. The Harper brothers were
up in that region last year, and return
this year for the purpose of looking up
ground upon which machinery can be
used with advantage.
Good reports have come in this
winter which lead the boys, who are
experienced miners, to believe that
that part of the country is as good as
Valdez creak or the Kuskokwim.
