SLAYERDULYSTRANGLED TO DEATH = _ ; OTTAWA, August 23.—A strange story of the course of justice in the Canadian northland, which result- ed in the summary execution of an. Eskimo by strangulation, has been brought here by the Royal . Canadian mounted police. The victim of the unwritten law, one Ahkak, was himelf a mur- derer, police said, and adjudged by his fellow villagers in Kongher- muet, an Eskimo colony, on Prince Albert sound, as dangerous to the community. In the summer of 1919, the re- port reads, Ahkak murdered Agluetuk. Shortly afterward Olepsekak, by which they were to share fortunes and the wife of the former. In March, 1920, when the hunters returned to their base, the Bskimos of Konghermuet, both men and women, found Ahkak. Seemingly aware of their intent, Ahkak told them of a deer- skin line outside his hut, which would serve thelr purpose. It was with this line that Ahkak was duly strangled, and two Eski- mos, Kasahovi and Amokuka, charged with being chief actors in ne drama, were arrested iast March_by Corp. E. H. Cornelius and Constable J. B. Brockle of the mounted police. They will be held in Herschel Island over the winter and will be brought out for trial next spring. The Shopping Center—11th and G Sts.
