The previous fall, 1905, after being
sixteen months in unexplored country,
Hayes found himself, without, food, at
je jr V,IC w 1.110 nwi uiv u 7jmm w&
Alaska. He had a team of dors, some
fur. and more than IJ.000 in bills, which
- he had concealed In a belt next to his
akin; but, as ho was without food, one
sack of flour- wan worth to him more
' than all of the gold and other minerals
, In Alaska. To the southwest. 550 miles
distant, was the town of Candle creek
and he knew that he could find food
there in plenty he also knew that
number of whaling vessels were frosen
; in every year near i the mouth of the
Mackenzie river, about 400 miles-to the
. eastward along the bieax, cold ana bar

"It was imperative that he do some
thing, and do it quicktiy, so ne elected
' to make for Herschelf Island at the
mouth of ; tho Mackenzie river, which

killing se&js and otner animals to sus
tain himself and Ills dors en route.
"He expected- to get. food from the
missionary, but in this he was dlsan

down to lead the life of a whaler and
to pass the time until the spring would

This was la January, and in a placa
where the cold is so intense that the
quicksilver drops out of sight in the
