“C. G.” CLAIMS CREDIT
A correspondent who wishes to be
known onlv by the initials C. G. denies
th$it Jafet Lindeberg and Erik Lind
blom were the first discoverers of gold
at Nome. He saw a story some time
ago in this paper—the story of a fight
which occurred in San Francisco over
an alleged bill due by Mrs. Lindblom.
In this story Linblom was given again
the credit for discovering Nome and
; “C. G.” comes back with the following
interesting reply:
“Reading your article referring to
Lindeberg and Lindblom as the dis
coverers of the Nome gold I can in
form you that neither Lindeberg nor
Lindblom was the first discoverer of
Nome’s gold and that neither of them
had ever prospected for mineral in
Alaska previous to the Nome camp
being organized by Gabe Price who
took out the first ten thousand dollars
from No. 8 Anvil creek in 1899 and
made rockers for Lindeberg, Lind
blom and the others in 1898 and show
ed them how to use them. They
rocked out eighteen hundred dollars
from September 15 to the freeze-up.
