Bear Rescues Whalers After Arctic Pack Crisis
The revenue cutter Bear arrives at Cape Smythe with 118 aboard including Lieutenants Jarvis and Bertholt and Dr Call among rescued crews from the whaling ships Orca Jeanette Fearless and Louise J Keynes. Survivors are taken aboard at St Michael and fed after days in the ice. The Bear later circuits south toward St Michael delivering supplies and rescuing nine miners, with reports of ship damage, and notes on other vessels crippled or lost in the pack. A Seattle special disputes earlier wreck reports and cites Governor Leedy considering property measures for families of those affected.
