“KING GEORGE/’ LAST OF
ALASKA SLAVES, DIES
WRANGELL, Dec. 23. — “King
George/' a blind native, whose life
spanned Alaska’s history from the
time slavery was practiced by the
fierce tribes of this coast to the ad
vent of the white man, with his elec
tric lights and automobiles, died in his
cabin in back of the Charlie Chin
Shun store last Sunday. He was 80
M
years old. " #
The aged native was one of the last
living slaves of Alaska. He was cap
tured and brought to these islands
over sixty years ago by the Klawock
tribe, returning from a plundering ex
pedition into Canadian territory.
He grew from youth to man as a
slave and was the property of the
Klawocks until the power of the
United States government was able
to supress slavery.
Although he was given his free
dom, a close watch was always kept
on him, because he was supposed to b<*
the grandson of an evil spirit and as
sociated with witchcraft.
He escaped from his guards and
came to Wrangell, where he asked the
government authorities to protect
him, as the Klawocks had threatened
to kill him for witchcrafting. Here
he lived, making his way by fishing,
until a few years ago, when he be
came totally blind.—Seattle P. I.
