OLD COUPLE OBTAIN
NEW START IN LIFE
RUNNING TRIP LINE
With the departure of Mr. and Mrs.
Barney Holley last week on the S. S.
Aleutian with their nine live mink
goes a story that has epochal signifi
cance in the development of Alaska.
These two old folks int two years have
started things all over again. In fact
they are headed to modest fortune to
cheer their declining days.
The story as told by Joe Eamon of
the Panhandle Cigar store, who knew
•
them both, had its beginning at Ar
lington, Wash., two years ago. At
the period when both were on the
shady side of 50 they had a farm at
Arlington and were unable to pay
the mortgage. To make matters worse,
Barney Holley was 65 years of age and
was troubled with hernia and his
wife, then over 50, -was afflicted with
goiter..
They came North. She got a job
as cook on the Alaska Railroad and
he took a billet as section man. They
wrere at Caswell station, near Me
Kinley Park.
At Caswell a kindly disposed per
son let them have the use of a cabin.
They had made enough during the
summer to buy grub and a few traps
for the winter. During the winter
they caught $1,000 in mink and in the
spring they both had caught their
limit of 20 beaver under a permit.
These were sold for $30 each, adding
!
another SI,200 to the spring fur clean
up.
They went Outside to pay off the
mortgage on the Arlington farm and
old doctor bills. They came back
last fall and went out 25 miles from
| Talkeetna -at about Mile 227 of the
' Alaska Railroad, where they built
a cabin. He covered the traps while
she stayed at home to skin and look
after the fur.
They got 75 mink at $16, a number
of ermine and wolverine. They man
aged to catch nine mink alive, seven
of them females that are expected to
yield pups this spring. They will start
a mink ranch on the Arlington farm.
In the meantime they expect to keep
their Alaska source of supply alive
and going.
