FROM PAGE 7 answers (o these and other techni- cal questions. The British reporters, waiting to pounce on the "juicier" aspects of the tale, soon tired of all this talk about nay aids and ELT's and _IFR's and were noj long packing their bags for home. Since air travel was so.com- mon in the north, it was air safety, not cannibalism that mattered to + northerners.: Ironically, the only survivor, Marten Hartwell, never testified at the inquest. He was recrating out of the NWT, and the laws goveming inquests were so full of loop-holes, he could not be legally - compelled to testify. A lot of northerners warited that loop-hole. closed in a hurry. For me, a young, green reporter from the "south," this whole story was absolutely fascinating. What brought back the memo- ries was-a column last Week stat- ing that a new book called "The Survivor" is now out. The author ays tribute 10 the heroism of David Kootook, who apparently refused to consume human flesh to avoid starvation, but probably « saved Hartwell's life many times over by cutting firewood, making the make-shift camp in the plane, scraping lichens and even trying to cut a hole through the thick ice 'Northern tale of a nearby lake to catch fish. The plane was not equipped with any wonders how fishing gear, so 0 the youngster fisHNId he in the ice. And, me there was no rifle. Once-when a deer wandered by, the youth tried to kill it with an axe. The boy died about a week before Hartwell was rescued. [ was shocked to find out that he is * buried in Edmonton. And for years shis grave remained un- marked. Now, there is a move underway to give David Kootook a posthumous award for bravery. There were many troubling aspects of this entir€ story, some with racial overtones. It had a major impact on northern Carfada and the people who live there, native and non-native alike. That's why the newspaper col- aimn last week caught my atten- tion, and why just seeing ose three ngMes brought Back such vivid'memorics after nearly 20 F years. If anyone deserves a posthu- mous medal fer bravery, it's David Kootook, . I also wonder why his remains lic in a grave in Edmonton. He was an Inuit who lived on the Arctic coast. Surely, his last resting place should be among his people. Unsolved Mystery solved! Another 'Unsolved Mystery' has been solved! Last week's mystery couple was identified by two Port Perry readers, Dan Stone and Joan Lane. After seeing last week's 'Unsolved Mysterys, they called Gail Sheridan, curator at Scugog Shores Historical Museum, and told her the man in the photo was + Edward Burton, a local contractor, with his first wife, Elizabeth'Anne Edward Burton Collins --~ better known as 'Annie'. Dan Stone lives at 52 John St., Port Perry, in a house that was built by Mr. Burton in 1914. The Burtons lived in the house until 1918, when they sold it to A. Leask, Dan Stone's grandfather, and-moved to Arizona. Well, it wasn't too long before they took a dislikg _to"Arizona, promptly mov- ing back 10 Port Perry and asking Mr. Leask if he'd sell them the house back. Hissanswer, of course, was no. AE After Annic Burton's death, Edward married a girl named Nellie, and the two are still in the Scugog area -- buried in Prince Albert's Pine Grove Cemetery. Gail is "amazed" at the response she is getting to the 'Unsolved Mysjery" column. The museum has a large collection of unidentified photos, many of which might never -be identified. But so far, three 'Unsolved Mystery' photos have been ID'ed by readers...the Burtons, a cottage owned by Bill Brock and 'Fred Christie', a relative of the present day Fred Christie. If you want more information about any old photos at the muse- um, Gail would be happy to help you out. Just give her a call at 985-3589.
