"Native frightened by explosion

wer native then made decision to
come to Barrow for help.
"With completion of story we
knew plane to be that of Post and
Rogers and quickly assembled a crew
of 14 Eskimos and departed n -f-n
whale boat powered with small gas
motor. Hampered by recent Ice floes
and strong adverse current, took
nearly three hours to reach destin
ation. "Dense fog with seml-darknesa
gave upturned plane most ghostly
appearance and our hearts chilled
at thought of what we might Una
there.
"As we approached nearer plane
we soon realized no human could
possibly survive the terrific crash.
The plane was but a huge mass ox
twisted and broken wood and metal.
"The natives by this time had
managed to cut Into the cabin and
extricated the body of Rogers who
had apparently been weir back in
the cabin when the plane struck
and more or less protected by the
baggage carried therein.
"We soon learned we would have
a difficult Job freeing Post from
the wreckage as the plane had
struck with such terrific speed it
had forced the engine well back
Into the cabin pinning the body oi
Post securely.
"With some little difficulty we
managed to tear the plane apart
and eventually released the body oi
Post. Both bodies were then care
fully laid and wrapped with elder
down sleeping bags found In the
wreckage, and then carefully placed
In the boat.
"It Is believed the natives felt
the loss of these two great men as
keenly as we and as we started our
slow trip back to Barrow one of the
Eskimo boys began to sing a hymn
In Eskimo and soon all the voices
whined In this singing and contin
ued until our arrival at Barrow
when we silently bore the bodies
from the beach "to the hospital where
they were turned over to Dr. Grelat,
who with the kindly help of Mr.
Brower- prepared and dressed the
bodies.
"It is doubtful if a person In this
little village slept that night, all
sat around the hospital with bowed
heads with little or no talking."
