Duncan McDonnell, or “Cinnabar”
McDonnell, as he was better known,
who was so frightfully frozen while
on a trip to Ophir creek, in the Kus
kokwim, on January 7 and the follow
ing days, died last Tuesday- night.
The news was brought by Dr. Moore,
who arrived from Kolmakoff last
night.
Dr. Moore left here just a week ago,
and was taken to Kolmakoff by relays
of dog teams in thirty hours, to give
medical aid to thd"unfortunate pros
pector.
The news came as something of a
surprise, because of the fact that dur
ing the week news was brought here
that McDonnell was not so severely
frozen as was at first believed. Charles
Gay, who arrived here last Monday,
brought word of the sufferer’s condi- i
tion before the arrival at Kolmakoff
of Dr. Moore, and another traveler
from the Kuskokwim, who arrived
yesterday, also brought word that
there was a good chance of saving the
patient’s life, and that he would not
be as badly maimed as first reports
would indicate. Dr. Moore says, how
ever, that the first reports were even
short of the truth as to the terrible
manner in which he was frozen.
According to Arthur Willis, who
reached Flat last Friday evening from
Kolmakoff, on the Kuskokwim, making
the trip through without rest or sleep
in order to procure medical assistance
for the unfortunate man, it seems
that McDonnell started for Ophir
creek from his cabin on Bear on Jan
uary 7, and was overtaken by the
storm. He was snowshoeing and got
into an overflow, his snowshods be
coming so clogged with ice that he
was compelled to abandon them. His
eyes became affected, and he wan
dered around all that day and night,
all the following day and night and on
the third day he finally managed to
crawl to the cabin of his partner on
Ophir creek, where the latter and a
man named Castleman, known as the
“Cotton-picker,” worked over him for
many hours, extracting the frost from
his limbs. They started to take him to
where assistance could be rendered,
and were overtaken by another storm,
and were compelled to make camp
without fire, and suffered many hard
ships before they reached Kolmakoff,
on the ninth day after the mishap to
McDonnell. By this time it was seen
that the patient could be taken no far
ther, and Mr. Willis started on his trip
for Iditarod.
McDonnell’s legs were frozen to his
knees, his hands and arms not being
badly frozen, however. His tongue
was frozen, his lips, gums and cheeks
also, and when Willis left the sufferer
had only occasional spells of cons
ciousness. ,
Willis arranged for five relays of
Uassihed Advs.
