To the Editor:
“Recently your Iliamna corre
spondent briefly sketched for you
the “wonderful sight”—especially
for the natives who had never seen
a “horse before” when the Geologi
cal Survey party passed enroute 10
Stoney river with 15 horses. Later
another correspondent advised you
that there had been horses in that
section as early as 1914. Histori
cally those are interesting events,
j “I am not quite sure that the first
horses were on Iliamna Lake in 1901
but I do know that in the fall cf
1901 the Trans-Alaska Co., a San
Francisco corporation, wnich plan
ned a railroad from Iliamna Bay to
the Yukon, landed at what is now
known as N. C. Point, a considera
ble number of horses—I estimate at
least 20- and freighted with them
from the Bay to Iliamna village
and later they made at least one or
two trips to Lake Clarke near the
western end of which they estab
lished a roadhouse.
“About the middle of October of
1901 the same company landed a
number of men and horses on the
south bank of the Yukon about
seven miles below Holy Cross Mis
sion at a place now known as
“Horse Camp”. I was with that
party and in November we started
for Iliamna Bay with several
horses and men. From the Yukon’
to the divide between the Kusko
kwim and the Tic-Chic we left two
men and a horse at the end of each
25 miles. Those men were to build
a roadhouse and freight supplies to
it with a horse. From the head of
Tic-Chic river w7e took two horses
thru to Iliamna Lake, going down
the Nushagak to the Kawok village j
and thence to the west end of
Iliamna Lake.
“One of those horses died while
we were storm-bound on the south
side of the lake and we lived on
him for a little while. The other
horse I myself took thru to the j
[liamna village. Later, I and other j
rrans-Alaska men took at least six
head of horses. almost to the Kus- (

forced us to turn back.
“R. A. Jackson and others
freighted- with horses from the
'mouth of the Nuskagak to the
'mouth of the Malchatna until some
jtime in February or March of 1902
and then returned the horses to
Iliamna.
“Of course there are many na
tives now who had no opportunity
to see the Trans-Alaska horses but
during the winter of 1901-02 horses
ceased to be a novelty to hundreds
of natives around Iliamna Lake
and the Nushagak river.”

RAW SALMON
Raw salmon—salmon as landed 4
by fishermen is classified as fresh
fish regardless of its subsequent
use. There is, however, the so-call
ed fresh salmon trade which does
not process the fish, but simply
sells it locally or packs it in crush
ed ice in wooden boxes and ships it
to distant points for table use.
