Pg. 9 TWO MEN DIE AND SIX ESCAPE DEATH IN SNOW Plumas Miners Are Led To Safety After Failure Of Tractor Two men are dead in different parts of the high Sierra and six others escaped death after a bitter four-day battle against blinding snow and bitter winds. The dead were: Arthur Gerst, 32, of Antioch, frozen to death Saturday near Strawberry Valley, Yuba County. A.R. Stramer, 49, of Healdsburg, also frozen after becoming exhausted while traveling without snowshoes through two feet of fresh snow in Mariposa County. Men Improvised Skis The story of the rescue of six miners was unfolded last night in Blairsden, Plumas County. They used every available device from a tractor to improvised barrel-stave skis in their fight to escape death in the snow. They were guided into Blairsden by two ski experts sent out to search for them Saturday. Caught In A Blizzard Those in the party, William Lee, Antone Costa, Lee Lumsden, Dave Mitchel, Pete Foley and Harold Fowler, were caught Wednesday in a blizzard. While they thawed out and ate their first meal since they were marooned by the storm, they told of their experience. Found Shelter They left the Ready Bullion Mine early Wednesday for Blairsden, twenty miles down the mountains, traveling on a snowmobile --- a tractor device used for traveling over snow. Before noon the storm howled upon them and piling drifts disabled the tractor. Without food, the men struggled through the snow, but were soon forced to take shelter in a deserted cabin at Mt. Elwell. Around the cabin the snow piled from four to ten feet deep. They remained there until Sunday morning, when they started out again on the skis made from barrel staves and boards. George and Ernest Jovich of Johnsville, who had been sent out to make the search, found them. Miner Lost Snowshoe The story of Gersts death was brought to Marysville by miners, who said he froze in a nine-foot snow bank a quarter of a mile from his cabin. It is believed he lost a snowshoe while making his way down a steep canyon from Slate Creek in Yuba County, where he had been mining. Dwellers in nearby cabins said they heard cries during the night, but mistook them for coyote yelps. They said Gerst must have floundered in the snow drift and was too exhausted to free himself. Stramer, who had been working at the Sweet Water Mine fourteen months, leaves a wife, Anna of Healdsburg. [According to the California Death Index, Arthur was 36 when he died.] (B.

Daily Appeal 2/17/1891 Death of E. Goble From Accidental Injuries A Brownsville correspondent furnishes the following particulars of an accident which resulted fatally to a well-known pioneer of Yuba county: A sad and most deplorable accident which occurred on Monday, February 9th, threw a gloom over our community. E. Goble, one of our old and respected pioneer citizens, who, owing to his advanced years, and a stroke of paralysis which afflicted him a few years since has been of late in an enfeebled condition, while out on his ranch endeavoring to pass the time, by clearing up a little brush, attempted to light a fire, and while so doing it is supposed (very little can be positively known, as when found he was beyond speech), his clothing caught fire, and before, in his feeble state, he could extinguish the flames or give the alarm to others, he was fatally burned. Early in the morning his wife and daughter (Mrs. Dr. Crossman, of Brownsville), becoming uneasy at his delay, the latter started out to find him, and call him to lunch, when she met neighbors who had only a few moments previous to this found Mr. Goble, alas, to late to save his life or limit his sufferings. He died about an hour after being brought to his home, and was conscious, in a faint degree almost to the last. The shock to his family is a most severe and terrible one, and also to the whole vicinity, throughout which he had many friends, who will ever remember him as a man of sterling character, honest in all his dealings, a kind neighbor and a good citizen. He came to California at an early day, and for nearly forty years resided in Strawberry Valley. He was a prominent Democrat, and some years since was the chosen one of his party for candidate of the Assembly only failing to win the election by one vote. His funeral took place on Wednesday at 11 a. m., and was attended by all his old townsmen, as well as by a large number of friends from miles distant. The pall-bearers numbered J. H. Drake, Y. L. Birmingham, J. Yolind, William Crane and two other gentlemen whose names I could not learn. The services were conducted by the Rev. A. Jones, of Brownsville. (B. S.)

Marysville Daily Appeal - 2/13/1914, p1 - Gang Plow Inventor, Wm. Gummow, Dead - The following story, full of heart-interest and expressive of the vicissitudes of fickle fortune as she played with the pioneers of California, will be read with interest by many residents of Marysville: "San Jose, Feb. 11. - An old diary found among the effects of William Gummow, who died in Watsonville Monday almost a pauper, disclosed the fact that he invented the first gang plow ever used in the west and was engaged at Marysville with John Meyers in the manufacture of the implement. Gummow was temporarily absent from his shop when a traveling representative for a San Francisco manufacturing house induced Meyers to sell the invention for a small price. The manufacturing concern became enormously wealthy through the sale of the plow and Meyers and Gummow died penniless." - While William Gummow had been away from Marysville for many years prior to his death there are several persons among the older set of the city who remember him and who speak in the most kindly terms of his character and ability. He was a mechanic of considerable ingenuity and achievement, as his invention of the gang plow attests and he always contended that had he not been away from his blacksmith shop when the representative firm who made an immense fortune out of the invention appeared, it would never have gone out of Gummow's control. Gummow believed and knew all the time that he had a valuable discovery, one that would revolutionize the agricultural industry, and he told many of his friends at the time and many times since that he intended to expand his invention and secure funds to place it on the market. Had he succeeded in doing this he might have died a wealthy man instead of having passed to the other side leaving little of value but his good name to be remembered by. - The case of Gummow has many prototypes in this and other countries. It is seldom that inventors reap financial reward commensurate with the importance of the things they conceive and make possible for the betterment of mankind, and Gummow's is really no exception to the rule. However, in inventing the gang plow, he left behind him a monument that will perpetuate his genius in the generations to come when the names of those who profited by it are forgotten.
