	1914 Alaskan River Adventure
		The summer was nearly gone and the prospects of a lone winter in a declining stampede camp, shut off from communication with the Outside world; sentenced to the companionship of empty pockets, high prices, and a fading faith in the country, all went to make a strong argument in favor of moving.
