FORMER 76-YEAR OLD GUIDE
STILL CONTINUES TO FOLLOW
THE TRAILS
RORERVAL, Que., March 3. (£>)—
“Jimmie” Robertson, cook for tour
ist parties in the frozen north, is 76
years old, hut he can follow a dog
team all day, cook and wash dishes,
and then dance a jig to prove how
young he is.
Jimmie has followed the dogs for
60 years and is the father of five
sons, all guides. On occasion he will
discuss trails, hunting, and fishing,
but as for himself—Jimmie has spent
his 76 years learning not to talk.
Recently a party travelled half a
day with him before learning that
he speaks English.
For 15 miles Jimmie’s only conver
sation had been commands to his
dogs—“whoa” or “marchon,” which
has become “mush on” in Alaska.
One of the party, assuming that all
guides in this region were French
or half-breed, asked Jimmie a ques
tion in halting French. He was em
barassed by a reply in perfect Eng
lish and further embarassed by learn
ing that Jimmie’s last name is Rob
ertson.
A companion told of the jig episode
which took place after Jimmie had
fed seven hungry men. This other
guide declares that Jimmie thinks
nothing of the 35 mile jaunts which
constitute an average day’s journey,
and that he is often fresh when
others are fagged out. Jimmie can
help his team and heavily loaded
sled over hills with the best
Jimmie has piloted Hudson’s Bay
Company officials, railway survey
ors, traders, hunters, and fishermen
in his time. He now works on the
‘ Blanc Bee” or “white nose” trails,
so called because they have been
developed to accomodate tourists,
whose nasal organs unaccustomed to
the severe cold, are more likely to
freeze than those of the oldtimers.
