James A. Hines, the self styled

devote more time to writing. But his
friend and former Boy Scout Executive of the South, W. L. Sprouse, who
planned to g owith him, was unable
to make the trip because of ill health.
"Not knowing enough about the
dangers which exist in the uninhabited areas of Alaska, I hesitated to

Hines explained.
