- I might agree with your first link, but the second seems to show evidence of scannos that makes me worry.
- Scanning through the hits at google:"阿拉斯加"+"は" (adding the は (ha) to filter for Japanese texts) finds a lot of Chinese ↔ Japanese dictionaries, but not a whole lot of use of this term as Japanese. ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 21:51, 7 November 2019 (UTC)
- Two is concerning (hence the question mark), but フラシクリンポイント is probably a failed OCR of フランクリンポイント (“Franklin Point”), and Point Franklin, Alaska exists. I suspect that 比阿拉斯加の最北端 is similarly 北阿拉斯加の最北端 (“the northernmost point of northern Alaska”). —Suzukaze-c◇◇ 06:13, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
- I confess that OCR scannos of that sort make me leery of trusting such a source for any given spelling. If the OCR system can't distinguish ン (n) and シ (shi), or 北 (“north”) and 比 (“comparison”), even when the system gets those (apparently) correct elsewhere, it raises my level of dubiousness that the core term itself was scanned correctly. ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 21:28, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
- I've found that the full text is viewable on HathiTrust and that Google is just being a jerk. 「此阿拉斯加の最北端なるポイントバローまて僅々のみ。」 —Suzukaze-c◇◇ 20:52, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
