To the Best People In "London W
Responding to the very flattering
esteem and good will of the Ben Law
Committee, as officially expressed in
the Westminster Express, the Skag
way Commercial Chib and every one
of the 1.400 resident souls of Skagwafl
desire to extend their greetings and
thanks for the hospitable reception
of Mr. George Mowl, Skagway* rei>
resentative citizen, in the city of Lon
don The public functions devised In
honor of our distinguished enonlssao
at the center of the world, not only
v or, onoeh in the civic history

o{ Skagway. but has added a rare
store of reminiscence and anecdote
to the extensive and varied repertoire
of our leading conversationalist and
raconteur. For '?
exciting memoirs of war ad
west struggles will be side-tracked fcB
descriptions of the distinguished and
edifying good fellowship our repre
sentative has discovered at old West
minster. Heretofore we have always
associated Westminster with the
trious dead, but Brother Mqw has
taught us that there are a number
of good live ones within the sound of
the ancient abbey's chimes and thro
him we have come to know a few
the best of them. While we don
know exactly how it happened, there
are a few of us who have not been
informed that we are in some way
connected with illustrious remains in
perpetual storage at Westminster and
: have planned pilgrimages to ?he e
the rich duke draws his fat rent ro
I on that account. From now on, aow
| ever, Westminster will have a 1"
| uer attraction for us as we feel thai
I Brother Mowl has generated a keen
! fellow feeling between the citizens
of Skagway and the best people of
Westminster. We have had such gra
phic descriptions of the versatile Dr.
Darby and his jolly committee which
headquatrera at the Cumberland
Stores, where the genial Mr. and Mrs.
\xtman preside over and purvey the
best cheer in Merry England, that
from now on. 15 Beak Street, in Lon

a guiding star to distract us from the
ancient abbey .

the Mason Arms, where Mr. and Mrs.
Collyer so graciously preside over a
good and jolly company of which
Messrs. R. Butcher, H Ventham and
D. Mackay are shining lights, will be
' a Mecca for pleasant day dreams, al
though we may never meet face to
face our new made friends who so
royally entertained our plneipoten
tiary. Should any of these splendid
people ever visit our gateway to the
Golden North we will make them
realize what an Alaskan welcome
amounts to.
