BY FOOL 6AS
Rescuing Party Also Succumb to
•ad Air and Are Taken Out In
the Nlok of Time
The NewsMiner, of Fairbanks,
says: Overcome and killed by gas
and caught in ihe ladder as he was
trying to make his way up the
shaft to the fresh air above, Sam
Samuelson, who was working on
Steele creek, was found hanging
head downward in the shaft re
cently, a distance of about 20 feet
from the bottom of the hole.- And
that the gas in the hole did not
claim another victim is almost
a miracle, for the first would-be
rescuer was also overcome.
Information concerning the
tragedy was brought to Commis
sioner Christie, of Fox, by Doug
las Westvick, the owner of the
claim where the accident occur
red. And as there is not a suffi
cient population on Steele creek
from which to form a coroner's
jury, Commissioner Christie did
not proceed to Steele, but tele
phoned in to Commissioner Dil
lon. asking him to take a jury
from this cily and go oul to Ihe
claim. Commisisoner Dillon him
self visited lb.' elaim lo bring in
the Jwdy.
The de*id man. Samuelson, wenl
down the shafl Ibis forenoon lo
fiow Ihe sleain pipes were, re-,
ports Douglas Westvick, who
brought Ihe news lo Fox. A little,
later Westvick's brother lfeard
Samuelson groaning and wenl
down lo investigate. As be near
ed Ihe bottom he was conscious
of Ihe gas and shouted for the
rope. Douglas, on top, lowered it
as rapidly as possible, but before
his brother could tie it about him,
he, loo, was overcome. Taking
his life in his hands Ihe man on
top went down lo rescue bis
brother, clambering down into the
gas zone, I icing the rope and then
climbing up Ihe 80-foot ladder lo
the lop, himself almost overcome.
Then he hoisted his brother, al
though ii was ten minules before
the latter could be resuscilated.
Samuelson in Ihe meantime had
|died.
The dead man is well known in
the camp, having been mining on
Coldstream last winter, where he
was located on 10 below discov
ery.
