PIONEER FRED SIDE!!
5U0DENLY STRICKEN
Found by A! Sollers in his cabin
at Mile 16Vi critically ill, Fred
nalder, about 65 years of age, pio
eer of Alaska and a veteran resi
ent of this district, was rushed to
he Seward General Hospital for
eatment. But it was too late; little
-uld be done for him and he
passed away during the night.
It was only a few days ago that
Mr. Stalder was in Seward and
few, apparently, knew he was not
in the best of health for he made
no complaint. His death marks the
passing of another Oldtimer over
the Last Trail.
Efforts are being made today to
get in touch with relatives. Funeral j
arrangements will be announced as
soon as learned.
