WA8 NOT K ATM AI
BUT MOUNT MAQEIK
( Continued iiurn page 1)
I am satisfied (hat it is correct.
The natives at Sevanoski fled for
their lives and came down to'Nak
m-k on I ho Bering sea side, and
when asked if if was Kalmai they
said no, hul onr nearby without
a name. When I eaine around
on flw Pacific side I was inform
ed fhat if was a volcano I hat I ho
officers of I he survey boal had
asked I he natives ahoul a couple
years or so a^o, but they could
no| ascertain that it had a name;
finally the officer called it Mageik,
being fhe nearest he could come
was the 'boy' thai did fhe loud
barking.
"Kodiak got the worst of the
ashes of any place that I visited,
and if certainly a dismal place.
From Katmai^ bay northeast, all
the way across fhe peninsula, ev
erything is ash ladden as far as I
wa.s (upper Lake Clark country)
and probably hundreds of mile*
farther. To tho southeast there
is no ashes, rftt even Cold bay,
but on the Pacific side there are
great fields of purnico stono, white
on the Bering sea side there is
none."

A total of ten dredges will be

This would not seem to be a

rivet is caught in an old nail

they catch rivets in a rlvet-keg

there are men who catch rivets
with a pair of toners In much the
same way that a bird nips a fly

Its beak. The feat is commonly
seen by persons who watch work
