He took what care of the body Ihe could, then wrapped it in the bedding and canvas, leaving it be- neath the tree under which they {had slept. He then turnei back {to Crescent Lake, making the hike in two days, arriving there late on the evening of September 7. There he waited nine days for the plane to return. | During the Ilatter part of his enforced encampment at the lake Donahue lived on starvation ra- tions, for his staple food supply was gone. Wilson had cached their food when they arrived at the lake on the outbound trip and Donahue was unable to lo- cate the cache. When the two men left here in the plane they were accompanied by Wilson's black terrier dog. Don- | ahue brought the animal back with | him yesterday. | Since last night the dog has| spent all of his time at the Alas- ka Washington Airways hangar on ing down Gastineau Channel and ! waiting for his master’s return. | Although cxceedingly thin, appar- ently from lack of nourishment, | the dog has refused offerings o(l food made by the men at the| hangar.
