His mission was stationed at Golovin Bay, and he notified the Swedes, Brynteson, Hagalin, Lindbloom and Linderberg, who in turn saw G. W. Price and induced him to go with them, as he was the only one there experienced in mining. Price was on his way to Kodiak over the ice by dog-team en route to California, as the representative of C. D. Lane, the San Francisco mining man and millionaire.
"Imagine a splendid polar-bear rug here," she said, "with a yellowish lynx at the foot of the stairs, and one of those fine Kodiak skins in front of the hearth. A couch there in the chimney corner, with a Navajo blanket and pillows would be color enough." Morganstein, watching her from his invalid chair, grasped the idea with satisfaction. "Cut out those Wilton carpets, Marcia," he said.
The furnishings were completed, even to the Kodiak and polar-bear rugs, in time to entertain a house-party at Christmas.

Fortunately just about then the sled on which the boys and old Andy fought, came through the ruck of the struggle. Andy hacked with a hatchet the paws from the last Kodiak that tried to seize the sled, and the two boys continued to pour bullets into the howling, roaring pack. They took Phineas aboard the slowly moving sled and so reached the professor and Wash.
"The captain told me he was going to spend Christmas there. Lefs see to- day is the 22nd she'll pull out for Juneau on the morning of the 26th; that's three days." "We must catch her," cried Emerson, quickly. "If you'll land us in Kodiak on time I'll pay you anything you ask." "I'd like to, but I can't," the man replied. "You see, I'm here all alone, except for Johnson.
