Uli was one of three men killed in an avalanche in 1929. All three were buried on Mon 19 August. The avalanche destroyed a number of buildings, including the foundry, cookery, and carpentry shop. These buildings had survived a previous avalanche in 1920 and hence were still in the area known as ‘Jericho’, which had been left when the station moved along the coast a little (to ‘Jeddah’).<\/p>\n

A cutting from the Sandefjords Blad newspaper dated 19\/08\/1929 in the Sandefjord Whaling Museum archives tells us the following:<\/p>\n

Uli was an assistant in the foundry. He was single, and from Lierstrand. He had arrived as a stowaway six years previously, was a good worker and so was allowed to stay. This was his first winter at Leith.<\/p>\n
