Description
KLONDIKE MINER'S LETTER
Unidentified Klondike miner's letter on illustrated hotel letterhead, 5pp. 8vo., Seattle, June 13, 1900 to his mother. In small part: "...Here I am at the Gateway to the Klondike...Everybody is flocking to the new gold fields of 'Cape Nome'...consequently everything here is booking...I had planned to go over to Victoria...and from there across the Sound...but the steamer broke down..." The writer also describes a visit to Mt. Shasta and stopping to take water there, and his anticipated trip home to Philadelphia. Very good. With envelope touting "The Great Flyer" train of the Great Northern railway.
