the stormy weather, two Port Graham
natives went hunting* in a bidarky,
and the strong wind squalls, together
with the strong ebbtide running out
of Dogfish bay, where they were
camped, capsized the bidarky and one
was drowned. The other managed to
free himself from his heavy clothing
and swa^p ashore. l b Irowned
hunter was found next uay.
Spring business is beginning early
this year and nearly every day there
is some cannery boat coming into or
going out of the bay.
Repair work is progressing on the
government barges and they will soon
be ready for the summer’s work.
The lights on the upper inlet will be i
lighted ahead of time this year if the
wind will come from the east or south
so a boat can land near them.
School ^election was held here on j
April 2. James Cleghorn was elected j
school director, Dr. I. F. Burgin as
treasurer, and Chris B. Petersen as

ANNA NIMMO
DIES SUDDENLY
FUNERAL SUNDAY
Miss Anna Nimmo, 28 years old,
who has been a resident of Seward
for the past three years, died at the
General hospital yesterday afternoon,
after an illness of about a week’s I
duration.
An odd and sad coincidence connect
ed with the death of Miss Nimmo is
that Mrs. Dolly Gilmore, a friend
with whom she has lived for some
time, died just a week ago, apparent
ly from the same cause. The strain
and nervous shock attendant upon the
death of Mrs. Gilmore, is supposed to
have aggravated the illness and hast
ened the death of Miss Nimmo. The!
doctors in attendance attribute hen
demise to asthenia.
The funeral services will take place
at the residence on Third avenue to
morrow afternoon at 2 o’clock, Rev.
J. J. Patton will read the service, and
burial will be in Woodlawn cemetery.
