CAPTAIN BERNARD OF TIGNISH TELL8 OF HIS EXPERIENCES AMONG THE ESKIMO.

The following interesting sketch or

the career of s former Prince Edward Islander is reproduced from the Daily Evening Item, Lynn. Mass.:- ' The sight of ii former companion who has spent five years within the Arctic circle, with a collection of furs. I-Iskl-_-lo costumes and crlido Arct‘c irnplenients. has made Gelirifff B- Bat* on ol GS Vine street hom-:sick lt may lli\~l<_ reasonable il.-. iii,-i but con- sider the fact that this former cum- paiilon, with his furs, rfoslulnes, etc.. represents hardships: among the uoitll- crn irc floes, wearyillf travel over fic-ren ice fields null Isolated from thc society of white men, and one can bill wonder what the frigid llorth holds In the heart of man comfortably establis- hed ln the midst of clviliuitlon.

This foregoing paragraph may sound

misleading, but Is, nevertheless, true. Last week George B. Bates of this city received into his home a msn with whom he’ had suffered (hc claims en- joyed) the hardships of a trater and minor of northern Alaska for three years. That man, although a stranger in this city, is well known in the tracks of the cold Trctlc winds and is no oth- ,er than Captain J.F‘. Bernard. mention- ed by Vllhjalmlr Stefansson lu his book, “My life with the Eskimo," a native of Tlgnlsh, P. E. Island, and for 18 years registered as a resident. of Nome, Alaska, under the business title of fur trader and explorer.

It is a peculiar tale that is woven

from the lives of these two men, one just returned from the great unknown of the north and the other a quiet, ap- parently ilresidc loving man with ti small family and who has not worn the Arctic fur for nearly six years. Willie this article deals In tl large part with Captain Bernard, who has been In this city with his old friend and pur- tner. Bates, for the past two weeks, yet the latter fact brings to light not only a local story, but ii very interest- ing one of exploration.

Ten years ago George flutes and

Captain Bernard met In the great ter- ritory of Alaska. ln what wns then n comparatively small mining and fur- trailing town called Nome. The 'cap- tain had already eight years' experi- ence in the North and they both were bent on making a fortune. that call which is given to all men who lnvitc the temper of the northern winds. The captain had not obtained his title then ln Pacific waters, although he had tak- en up the occupatioxi of a fur trader _in the employ of a large fur company, and visiting along the coasts of Alas- ka nnd Siberia in search of the covet- ed animal skins. V

Bates, during bla first summer, made

an attempt at mining but with no great success, although Mrs.- Bates is now the proud possossor of some of the ore wealth that her husband ob- tained with his own hnndii and which she would not excllnnge for great vol-

ue. In some manilegytlie two

MEN MET AND BECOMING PALS,

hired out with the .same fur trading company and sailed on the same ves- sel. They cruised north through the Bering straits, visited the Esklnios in their crude habltations and literally becolne denizens of the frozen North.

About 1908 they became partners in

tt little 35-ton gasoline and sailing launch~witll the llnnio "Teddy Bear," continuing their trading expeditions along the north coast and cttstern Sl- berls. The next year each nlan re- ceived a call in his heart, one coming from the north nntl the other the south and, as tt result, one came "back East" to the llcw field of matrimony while the other went north into new fields oi' ice and desolation.

Before they separated, however,

the one that was to return "back East" lingered ti while and helped his partner fit hltnsoll' for his northern tourney. 'l`hc reason that one was to return to his home and .sweetheart is obvious, while the other was going far north into the unexplored regions for the purpose of seeking new fields of trading and collecting furs, carlos. etc. That bot.h men were successful in their quests was shown by the meeting of the two lil Lynli last week.

Of Mr. Bates there Is little further

to tell. for since that parting in Alaska six years ago he has located In Lynn, married and is the proud father of a curly-headed baby boy. Of his former pal there is much to tell, however.

In his comparatively small vessel he

left Nome and clvlllzstIon,August 22, 1909, sailing north through Bering straits and commencing that long jour- ney of the famous Northwest passage. Ile intended to make the complete Journey, but later Incidents in the trip prevented. Rounding Bathus, he ven- tured due east. After leaving the cape he lost his partner. He had been otl the journey almost n year and had .visited along the Alaska coast, mak- ing stops for weeks at a. time and ex- ploring Inland.

One day his partner set out with a

team of dogs and sled to visit a village of natives several days' journey in- land. He never reached his destina- tion. and when his dogs returned with- out the driver, parties of Eskimos were seht out. but only to find the sleeping bags. It wns thought he fell into an Ice crevice and died. '

For two years Bernard was without

ii white companion and made his jour- ney with two natives. Sometimes he stayed in one locality for many months. exploring. trading for skins and killing bear. seal, musk ox mill fishing. As 'le pushed fnrthcr oust he met strange tribes of natives, took geo- graphical survey snd collected curlos.

He ventured up this river ii- -bout 200 miles and turned back. as the season was late. .At the loss of his partner he aban- doned bis first idea of making the Northwest passage. Journeyllig back toward .Cape Bathus be found it whal- ing expedition, and from‘wbich be em- ployed ii. white msn, who remained with him the following two years un- til he returned to Nome. He spent the two years navlgstingnorth on short expeditions in the summer and hunting in the winter.

In trading with the Eskiirlos he

found the greatest medium of trade in tin, scrap-Iron and brass. On his Journey north. he located a stranded schooner which had been wrecked several months previous, and for which salvage claims had been relin- quished. On board of the hulk he found many rods and nluch brass pip- ing, so that when he found the trading natives he discovered that he 2011111 part with the brass for more value than ite weight would be ill gold. so eager were the natives to get it for their tools.

On the coldest day In his experience

he found the temperature slightly stronger than 60 degrees below. in 1913 there were but 22 days of sum- mer, altbough the average summer, that is, without frost lp the air and ground, is about two months ill dura- tion, the equivalent season lasting in this locality about nine months of the year.

In 1912, while alone with his nativ-

es, he contracted scury, the dreaded disease of the Arctic explorer, and which In most cases Ia fatal. He bases his recovery on the eating of raw meats and drinking warm animal blood. Scurvy is caused by the lack of vegetables, and by this time his supply had run oilt.

Hunting was easy ln most of the

localities visited. In many plnces one could shoot it caribou from the door of tho cabin or Igloo. Ctlpcnin Her- nard

was exhausted in 1913, and would not have lasted that time only for the frequent use of the sail. In returning to Nome he entered the harbor Sep tember 22, 1914, having been gone live years and one montll to the day. The little boat with its six-foot, six-_inch draught was loaded to the gunwaie.

Captain Bernard left the furs in

Nome, but brought the curlos and oth- er collections back to the States. On returning across the continent he visit- ed his ohl home at Prince Edward Is- land for it few weeks. and before rc- turnlng west could not refrain from making n short v,isit to ills former pnr tner, llnw in Lynn.

The war has caused it great depres-

sion in the fur murket,so tllntat. pre- sent tliere is no sale for ills furs, but despite this facthe feels tllat his trip was a huge success. Ile has left a wonderful collection of Arctic bird skins at the Museum ot' Natural His- tory lii New York. although leaving the greater part of his general collec- tion, aside from the filrs, at Seattle, Washington.

On hlsvil-iit to Lynn he brought one

large steamer trunk filled with samples of his collection. among which are skins from various animals, cooking utensils of the natives, some of the skill suits worn by the Esklmos and himself while on the trip and n won- derful collection of ivory, carved by the natives and found lil the tuslts oi the walrus.

Since coming to Lynn the captain

and Mr. Bates have been the hosts of countless friends of the Lynn man and the story of the trip and the sight of the old collection have made both men famous in the western section of the city. Captall Bernard will remain here n, few days longer and will then return to Alaska to prepare for anoth- er and more extensive trip. - Although Mr. Bates' heart is bound up in his family and work In thc city, he admits that il good-sized corner oi' it will go with hs old friend and pal to the great unknown mysteries of the Northland. Whelwasked by the Item representative If he desired to accom- pany his friend back. he answered. “I'd go in a minute only." and he hesi- tated, as his eyes sought those of Mrs. Bates, who was playing with the little Bates, "Only, I guess I have all of the treasure in this world tlult any uiuli deserves." `
