19104010Various locations including Sprague Wa.; Vancouver British Columbia; and Nome Ak 1910. Very good. Thirteen autograph letters signed totaling thirty-nine pages and a few original transmittal envelopes. Original mailing folds occasional short fold separations otherwise minor wear. Overall a well-preserved group stored in an antique wooden box from the St. Paul Rubber Company. An interesting collection of manuscript letters written to Fred Lindberg of Hallock Minnesota by his brother and other individuals participating in the Alaskan and Yukon gold rushes between 1897 and 1910. The preponderance of the correspondence relates to the ill-fated experiences of Fred's brother Albert William Lindberg who writes four letters while on his way to the Alaskan gold fields before apparently committing suicide in Nome in 1909. Albert William "Willie" Lindberg was a Swedish-American gold prospector from Minnesota who spent significant time in Washington State before trying his luck albeit unsuccessfully in Alaska.<br /> <br /> The four letters from Willie begin with his February 20 1897 letter to his brother Fred in Hallock Minnesota. With unbridled enthusiasm Willie writes from Sprague Washington that he has "heard so much about Alaska that I made up my mind to go." Willie encourages Fred to join him to work in the mines where he expects to "pick gold nuggets." Willie informs Fred that he has sold his horses and saddle and has collected about $400 with which he intends to "make a raise or go broke" in Alaska. He extolls Fred to raise his own money and come to Alaska where he intends to "make a fortchen sic fortune." Willie concludes: "And when we get there you will see one of the luckiest Swedes that ever struck Alaska." Lindberg next writes from Vancouver on March 20 1898 again to his brother Fred informing him that he is on the way to Alaska. He promises to "stake out a clame" for Fred once he gets there though he now believes that going to Alaska might be "a foolish trip." Still he intends to stay "as long as I can" in the Alaskan gold fields in the company of "an old miner he has mined for the last 35 years."<br /> <br /> Willie writes another letter on March 20 after he arrives in Juneau which he describes as "quite a town and everything is just as cheap here as in Seattle or Vancouver and food and lodging is $1.00 a day." Here Willie informs Fred that he intends to go further north to Dyea north of Skagway because "I want to go where the big strikes is made." Willie's last letter emanates from Seattle where he has apparently returned perhaps for the winter from the previous year but now informs Fred that he intends to start on his "wild goose chase again." Instead of "Cape Nome" Willie intends to go to Skagway then "down the Youkon River it is mining camps all along the Youkon River and I think it will be better up there than down at Cape Nome it is bound to be over down at Cape Nome this summer when all these people get there."<br /> <br /> Willie's letters are accompanied by a pocket-sized notebook in which he recorded a small amount of financial information for the Nome Bank in 1908-09 as well as listings of food and other goods he purchases there and a five-page diary-style entry dated February 15 1907. In the latter Willie writes introspectively about his state of mind and habits at one point noting that "at times you are liable to become blue and depressed really there is no cause to be that way." <br /> <br /> Lindberg's single diary entry in the notebook is especially intriguing considering he apparently committed suicide in Nome in 1909 according to five letters present here dated in the summer and fall of 1909. This includes two letters sent from Wentworth Brothers the undertakers in charge of Willie's remains. The first of these letters dated May 24 1909 begins: "On May 11th 1909 Mr. Lindberg W. was found in cabin on Belmount Point dead. Cause gun shot wound and the Coroners Jury brought in verdict of suicide. Two of his friends Mr. Godfry Johnson and John Olson furnished the funeral arrangements - as he was without money." In each of the two letters the undertakers ask that Fred Lindberg respond to them whether he wishes Willie to be buried in Alaska or have the body shipped to Minnesota. The other three letters were written from two of the men who found Willie's body; the authors were responding to Fred Lindberg's wife who sent letters to Nome inquiring about Willie's death. Two of the letters were written by Phillip Corrigan of the Nome Mine Workers Union in August and the third by Gotfred Johnson in September. Corrigan details finding the body wondering if "may be he was fooling with the gun and accidentally shot himself." He then writes that he has known of Willie prospecting in the area since 1907 but that he "did not find pay at any time" and had no money at the time of his death" though "he may have some claims here."<br /> <br /> In the next letter Corrigan details both a quartz and placer claim in which Willie had an interest then provides further detail on the claims and what must be done to maintain them. Johnson writes a highly-detailed five-page letter conveying his background and experiences with Willie providing important biographical material and informing Fred that Willie seemed in "good spirits" when he last saw him "3 or 4 days" before his suicide. Another letter from Nome in August 1909 is present here written on the same Nome Mine Workers Union stationery as Corrigan's letters by Carl de la Motte; the two-page letter seems to relate information on Willie but is written in Swedish.<br /> <br /> The present archive also includes four letters written to Fred Lindberg from his friend Edward A. Johnson in Circle City Alaska. Written between July 5 1905 and June 10 1906 Johnson's letters indicate he was tasked by Fred to find his brother Willie. In his first letter Johnson writes from Mastodon Creek that he has been unable to find anything "about Will." In his subsequent three letters Johnson details his search for Willie often mentioning that he expects to locate him in Fairbanks or Nome but never does. In the process Johnson relates other interesting details about Alaska and his experiences there including a report on weather patterns as they relate to the seasonal nature of the mining industry informative descriptions of the Alaskan country he visits in "the Tanana districts at Fairbanks" his decision to acquire claims near Mastodon Creek and the unreliable nature of the Alaskan postal schedule. The archive also includes several unrelated Lindberg family letters mostly written to Willard Lindberg of Hamline University in St. Paul Minnesota in the mid-1920s but these are not included in the letter and page counts above.<br /> <br /> An unusual collection of manuscript letters of particular interest to the study of suicide in American history documenting both the optimism of a young Minnesota man on his way to find fortune in the Alaskan gold fields and his tragic end by his own hand in Nome a little over a decade later. unknown

18861242Unalaska 1886. Very good. 4pp. on a small bifolium. Previously folded. In a relatively neat legible script. A manuscript letter by one S.L. Beckwith describing his 1886 travels through the Aleutian Islands and the town of Unalaska addressed to a woman named Ida perhaps his sister. It reads in part: <br/><br/>"This is a poor miserable place. The AC Co. has one comfortable house outside of storehouses coal house salt house oil house and the like. The houses are all small. There is one small church denomination the Russian Greek Catholick. There is about 40 buildings in all here and about a Doz. of Berakies that is underground houses. Everything is built on the sand beach. There is plenty of codfish here also salmon salmon trout brook trout some striped fish and plenty of clams. There is no wood growing on this land."<br/><br/>He goes on to describe the steamer and trading activity in the port and also discusses his prior travels and onward journey through the Aleutian Islands. The "AC Co." mentioned is the Alaska Commercial Company which supported the seal and fur trades in Alaska during the 19th century after it was purchased by the United States. It was headquartered in San Francisco and ran operations in Unga and St. Michael as well as in Unalaska. A brief but interesting account of this Alaskan trading outpost during the 1880s. unknown books

Printed softcovers stapled and paper reinforcement at gutter margin some minor toning & soiling to fore-edges edgewear to spine minor scuffing and a couple removed label ghosting still VG- bright copy. First edition of this remarkably scarce plat map atlas for the Matanuska coal fields and township sites surveyed by Walker & McDaniel during their surveys following those on the Kenai Peninsula. By 1912 with the act establishing Alaska as a U.S. Territory and in 1914 the authorization to construct an Alaska Railroad there became an increased need and demand for coal. The Matanuska mines located about 45 miles northeast of Anchorage first began production in 1916 and would stay in continuous production through both World War I and World War II and well into the 20th Century re-opening again in the 21st Century. Not only do these maps show available government lease sites for coal mines but also available Township sites for homesteaders as required by the original Homestead Acts of 1866 and the 1916 Act for Alaska requiring surveys and resurveys to accurately determine boundaries of unsold railroad lands and identify their boundaries.
