Grief had strange manifestation
this week in the little Indian village
at Munson’s on the Richardson high

wife, Agnes, folded her arms as soul
departed, covered her gently where
she lay on her bed, locked the door
and silently stole away to his hunt
ing and trapping ground up the
valley.

Jack Minnis, prospector, arrived
at Matanuska Wednesday from Tal
keetna, after spending two months
trying to get to the headwaters of
the Talkeetna river where he had
planned to spend the coming summer
prospecting. After making vain at
tempts at getting to his old stamping
grounds, Minnis finally put in a
few days on some leads on the low
er part of the river and then made
a new start by a different route.
He is going in by way of Chickaloon
now. Minnis reports that the water
in the Talkeetna river is very high
and impassible, while the water in
the Chickaloon river is unusually
low. Minnis says there is an un
limited amount of good trapping in
that section of the country due to
the fact that the region has not
been visited much as yet by hunt
ers and trappers.
