sister, and Skookum Jim’s
daughter, a chunky little body
styling herself Miss Daisey

consists of old time friends of
the two men, and some who are
just lagging along to be in on
the deal. The distance to be
covered by dog team is in the
neighborhood of two hundred
miles. Several of the party ac
knowledged that the best they
could hope to do at this time

which they would be unable to
prove before July or August.
