WILLIAM J, OBEE, Here is another letter from Martin Victor, Jr., of Victor Bum. local fur- rierstwhu is in Alaska in search of fine furs for their store: Mr. Paul Highland Highland Dear Mr. Mr. Paul Udell, Highland Park New. Highland Park, Illinois. Dear Mr; Udell: Have never experienced a worse trip in my life. The temperature dropped from 38 below zero It Ne- nana on the 14th and kept dropping to 74 bvlnw until yesterday when it came back to 28 below. The wind has blown furiously almost every day, filling up the trail completely. My brother has a complete account in de- tail of thesn six days on the trail so far and you may get an idea of the winter travel here. Am living on Moose, Caribou and Mountain sheep and it sure does not taste but! at all. The natives here are all speaking their Indian tongue and few of them understand English. It seems like another world here en- tirely. the mouse and caribou tracks are thicker than rabbit tracks in Illi- nois. Have seen many caribou and a few mouse along the trail, too bad they are out of season to shoot. ' Will stay in vicinity for about a week as there are several trapners within fifty mile radius and will visit them. My dog team is completely exhausted, their feet are all bleeding from hard travel and must rest them or they will collapse. Can rent a team hore,for a week and will visit the trappers around here. The trails are completely covered up, but are easily found by the blaze in the trees. In many cases I have a hard time to find them myself, but the leader dog knows a trail hotter than 'a human being. Have been told that I’ll .aee people who have not seen any human being since last September. It is very interesting as I meet some old prospectors and trappers, they sure ask questions about Chi- cago. etc. They. have the idea that ynu need to 20 fully armed whenever you walk the street. Most of them have never seen an automobile, ete. and have beep shut off from the world in general most of their lives. Drinking water is obtained from the nearest creek, the best ice is chopped from about tour feet from the surface as the ice above that is muddy from the swampy tall water. The iée is solid all the way to the bottom and there is quite a relief to know that you may fall in and get wet. Thursday, March 27, 1930 Regards from Martin Victor. Jr,
