FREIGHTING SUPPLIES
VEXING PROBLEM IN
CHIGKNLOQN DISTRICT
/
Winter transportation between
Sutton, on the coal spur, and
Chickaloon, has its disatvantages,
guaged by the experience of H. L.
| McKinnon, the veteran sourdough,
i Mr. McKinnon, recently was com
j pelled to salvage a horse from
Granite creek bridge, where it had
! slipped through while drawing a
j double-ender.
| According to Seward arrivals he
! was proceeding from Chickaloon
! to Sutton for the purpose of trans
i
porting several hundred pounds of
bolts needed for the Peterson Oil
association standard rig, under
construction, and all went well
until Granite creek was reached.
About 50 feet from the south end
the horse went down with all
four legs between the cross ties, i
In an effort to extricate the an- !
imal Mr. McKinnon was tossed !
off the bridge to the deep snow j
10 feet below. Undaunted he :
floundered back, and after pry
ing the cross ties apart, managed
to get the horse to its feet.
Again it went thru. Again he
practically lifted it out. Then he
hog-tied it, placed his horse blan- |
ket under it for comfort and mush ;
ed down. to Sutton, where Mr.
Phillips, the custodian of the !
washery and Mr. Kleeman, mink J
farmer, armed with rope and a j
single pulley, joined him and at- i
tacked the problem of getting the j
horse off the bridge. Wrapping it J
in canvas and laying boards, they |
skidded thhe animal off .
On the return trip, Mr. McKin
non was accompanied by Jack
Lincke, formerly a member of the
Gateway staff, to Chickaloon. A
trail was shoveled around Gran
ite creek bridge by Messrs. Me
Kinnon and Kleeman, the horse
taken around, after which the
double-ender was dragged across,
the hardware being portaged ‘on
Archie Lingo’s hand speeder, which
had been stolen last fall and ditch j
ed nearby. j
A mile from the bridge and the '
snow had drifted upon the track.
The speeder was loaded onto the
double ender. A little further on
the track was bare, hence the
hardware was loaded onto the
speeder and portaged. This oc- !
curred until King river was reach- j
ed, where puncheons were cut and
the wide cracks in the trestle fill
ed, after which more portaging
Df sled and hardware was done.
Alternating in this manner,
they finally arrived at the Chick
iloon river, where two bridges re
mained to be crossed. The horse
ivent thru the first but managed ;
to regain his feet and get off. At |
the second the outfit was left be- ;
blind while Chickaloon was visit- !
3d, a mile away, planks secured |
md the horse relayed across from j
plank to plank.
At 11 o’clock they welcomed a |
dinner of four eggs, a steak, and
pie each, several cups of java and
a hatful of jam. Such is freight
ing in that part of the country.
