Leaving Ke! kan early in July, the two men flew to Crescent Lake, on the lawer ‘winiting, and proceed- €l up thes @r in a poling boat. They were equipped with a collap- cable Tubber beat and two months supplies. Great Obstacle . Pcriaging the canyon of the middle branch of Whiting river appears to have been ‘the gredtes. oObstacle on their trip, 4according to Smolke. They, followed a bear trail,” which, in places, offersd & precarious footing. Above the canyon the river flows through a wide valley with many gravel bars. The going was good for twelve miles, where the; river heads in a lake. The country between the head ~i the Whiting and, Sheasley rivers is reported (o b2 a land ‘of many lakes, some of which were 10 to 15 miles in Find Old Cabin Ah old ¢abin,’ which appeared fo have been erected more than 30 years &go, was found on the banks of Whiting river. A rusty ¥ gold pan fwas found inside the L - { % s cabin, indicating that it had' been constructed by a miner. This corroborates an old story fthat miners penctrated the Whiting valley in the early days. The two man spent several weeks on the divide between the Whiting and Sheasley rivers, and at one time reached a point where they could look down info ithe Clear- water, a tributary of the Stikine. Prospecting as they traveled, living on the country when their grub ran out, they “discovered” many in- dications of minerals and coal. Flacer gold, if it exists in this dis- trict, is too deep to be miined ‘prof- ftably, they decided. They brought out several sacks of sampies. for ‘assay. They See Elk 1t was in the vicinity of a large Jike which drains into the Shealey or Inklin tivers that the elk were observed. Krause, who had hunted ¢k in the Olympics:as well as in the Yellowstone, identified “them at once. They were white behind, much Yoo large for mule deer—a few odd which have been reported in the Cassiar lstély—and made off with the peculiar lope of the ok, so different from the trot of the moose Or ‘taribou. ‘Motntain gheep were also seen in this section, and goats in large bands. It had been-the intention of the two men to return %5 the coast dver the same route they came in. On approaching the canyon, however, they found that this voute would impracticable, ‘due to. an early fall of snow. Retracing they way, they crossed the height of land and struck out for the Sheasley 4 distance of ab/Aut 100 miles, which they reached in 12 “days.

Tom Neeley, when hs gave it to me on the fishboat Valencia, told me that it was full of gold. Tom is a prospector. He brought down nearly 40 tons of white rocks on the Valencia from Hagemeister Strait, Bristol Bay, Al- aska. “When T first brought my chunz of quartz back to The Star offict it was quite an attraction, and everyone wanted to handle it.
