She was to be a southbound passenger for Seattle, where the wedding was to take place. vaptain Thomas’' bride was wellsnown in Alaska, as she had taugnt in government schools at the westward, and also lived in Juneau and Ketchikan. After trial use of aircraft in the southern district, H. W. Terhune, executive officer of the Alaska Game Commission, predicted that air- planes probably would be used extensively for patrol of Southeast Alaska oy the next year.
