LARGE GROUP OF MEN
GOING PROSPECTING IN
NOKfl BAY DISTRICT
One of the largest and newest
groups of prospectors preparing to
spend some time in Nuka Bay
is composed of Merrill Riddick,
the airplane stunt flyer; Grinnell
Collins and Cy MacGahan.
The party with the exception of
Riddick and Collins, arrived this
week aboard the SS Starr from
Good News Bay.
Starting from Fairbanks in a 17
fcfjft lifeboat, an improvised sail
and home-made oars, the voyag- j
eurs and prospectors made their
way down the Tanana river to the
Yukon, thence to the portage,
crossed over to the Kuskokwim and
traversed that stream to Kusko
kwim and traversed that river to
Kuskokwim bay, west of Good
News bay, and along the coast to
the platinum discovery. There they
found that all likely ground had'
been acquired in advance. How-:
ever, they secured several nice nug
gets of platinum, including one i
piece showing evidence of having j
but recently broken from serpen
tine rock and having some of the
rock clinging to it. The party con
firms the opinion of H. S. Graves
and associates, who have acquir-:
ed a large area in Good News bay, j
and whose report was published in
Wednesday’s Gateway.
All of the party are adventurous
young men and getting a great
kick out of combined exploring and
prospecting, having gained a good
knowledge of the latter by their
experience and contacts with oth
er prospectors.
“I know what baked sea gull,
porcupine and muskrats tasts like,”
said McGahan, discussing his ad
venturous trip down the Kusko
kwim river. “Baked sea gull rivals
turkey—if you are hungry—and
stewed muskrat is a masterpiece.”

D. C. Brownell, Mayor.
Attest: A. D. Balderston, Mun
ipal Clerk.
The party started with a small
supply of provisions, but learned
to live off the country. On the trip
down they passed thru numerous
ancient Eskimo villages now re
presented by mounds which should
prove of great interest to archae
ologists.
Riddick has covered much coun
try since arriving from Ketchikan.
First he went to Cache creek, where
he remained long enough to learn
many of the angles of placer min
ing, including hydraulic work. Then
he inspected the region above
Spencer glacier, accompanied by
Collins and returned to Seward last
week. Being gluttons for climbing
and exploration, much store is
placed by these young men in fer
reting out additional good lodes
in Nuka Bay. They are capable of
fending for themselves in any
country.

Funeral services for Andrew
Holm were held Wednesday after
