Mr. and Mrs Egbert Healey of Red Stone hill are in receipt of a let- ter from Mrs. Brown, wife of the chief engineer of the Alaska Engineer- ing and Construction company at Savannah, Alaska, giving details of the tragic death of their son, Earl, who was killed some time ago. Healey was always a lover of adventure and outdoor life. It was a favorite sport of his to take pictures and snapshots for a collection. It was while doing this that the unfortunate young man met his death. A charge of 11 tons of T. N. T. is reported to have been placed in a large quarry at that place for blasting. The charge had been set and was ready for the ex- plosion. A warning had been sent around to the men within the danger zone and the place was deserted. Healey, seeing an opportunity to add a wonderful picture of the explosion of the 11 tons of powder, went back with his camera to get a snapshot of it. The officials were ignorant of his danger and the charge was set off. With a terrific roar the explosion came, rocks flying in all directions. One struck Healey on the head. He was found still alive, although badly crushed. Immediate medical ' atten- tion was given him _and he lived for four hours or more, being conscious until 20 minutes before death came.
