CENTRAL POINT AMERICAN
Alaska and Siberian Trips
Told in Letters to Home
Not W hat it It C racked up to Be
The following two letters were re­
ceived recently by John Cameron,
who lives on route 2, out o f Central
Point from his son, Edward H, 26,
who is making his first trip to Nome,
Alaska, aboard the steamer Donald­
son. Edward spent last Christmas at
his parents home here, after spending
some time in Siberia on a trading
vessel and expects to be home again
this year fo r Christmas.
He is a
graduate o f the Adcox auto school,
Portland, whicn he entered when he
was 16 and later taught the engin­
eering trade there for five years.
John Comeron has in his posession
a pair o f mucktocks, an Eskimo mac-
assin, which is made from seal skin
and reindeer, also a Siberian trap
made entirely with a knife, carved
from wood, used for catching game
and ermine. The letters follow:

from Nome to StMicheals, Alaska,
until about the middle o f November.
We are on our way to Nome now,
left Seattle the 4th, stopped a cou­
ple o f hours in Ketchican on the 8th
and stopped in Seward last night.
ItB sure been alovely trip so far.
Just before dark I could see the
Kodiak Islands, ahead. We passed a
few chunks o f icy straits on themorn-
ing o f the 9th. That night we had a
pretty choppy sea, that rolled us a-
round u bit, one passenger lost his
appetite. This morning six o f them
cut down on the board bill for the
samerf'eason.
Expect to be in Nome about the
22nd. We were half way there this
evening.
I don’t expect to see much ice in
theBearing sea as they had an early
spring. Last year at this time there
was quite a bit o f ice there though.
The engine is a good one, only two
years old, and I overhauled it com­
pletely before we left Seattle. She

little. The sea is pretty choppy this
morning, and she pitches and rolls
rather sudden like. The forward deck
