"On October 6, 1916, Captain E.S Barstow, Mr. Williams, and Fin Welhaven escorted the mule-drawn cart on a return journey to Unsan with a load of $75,000 in cash. A guard of two Japanese policemen rode with the three mining company employees in a buckboard wagon whose Chinese driver followed the bullion cart also driven by a Chinese. The wagons were nearing the end of a long uphill trip, only ten miles south of the first mining camp on the road. Suddenly a fusilade of rifle fire from the brush alongside the road shattered the rustic calm. Bullets hit all but one of the unsuspecting travellers. A Japanese policeman and the Chinese driver of the buckboard toppled over dead. Fin Welhaven was mortally wounded..."

Ainmericaini M5k&©e»s Murdered

"AMERICAN MINERS MURDERED IN KOREA. According to an Associated Press dispatch, Oct. 11, from Seul, Fin Welhaven, who is believed to have been an American, has been killed and two other American mining engineers have been wounded in an encounter with armed bandits, who ambushed the party in northern Korea with the object of robbery. The Americans and others connected with the Oriental Consolidated Mining Co. were returning to the mine on Oct. G carrying $75,000 in cash for operating expenses, when they were attacked from the brush by nine highwaymen. A policeman and the Chinese driver of the wagon in which the Americans were riding were shot dead, and Mr. Welhaven was so badly wounded that he died the following day. Two other Americans named Williams and Barstow were shot, though not dangerously. The bandits were driven off and the cash saved.
Mr. Welhaven was a brother of Alfred Welhaven, manager of the Oriental mine, which is about 60 miles from the nearest railroad. Once a month the output of bullion, which is about $150,000 is taken by an armed bullion party to thenearest station and thence to the mint at Osaka, Japan. On the return trip the party usually carries about $75,000 in cash for paying the mine expenses. Upon communication with the New York office of the Oriental Consolidated Mining Co., the report of the death of Mr. Welhaven is confirmed, but no further information is available."
