AWFUL HAVOC
IN DAWSON
(Continued from page 1.)
because be lias won fame in tlie
literary world, but because of bis
manly attributes. Northerners al
so have a sentimental regard for
Soivice's cabin, and they are ever
hoping for the day when he will
ec.nie back to Inhabit it. .
Far be It from these people of
the uorth to be inhospitable. They
are the embodiment of the spirit
of hospitality which Service immor
talized in many of his versos.
Strangers may come and help
themselves to the game of the
country, to their furs, even to the
gold dust from their mines, but
taking Bob Service's cabin, piece
by •iece, is stretching the bounds
of hospitality to tlie breaking point,
and they have written to the Times
in protest against it.
The northern people love this
cabin as they love Dob Service.
Service is a quiet, diffident man—
yet one who always did bis share
and more of the work on, the trail.
He never was too tired to do the
thousand chores around a camp In
winter. When he made the long
mush troni Edmonton to the mouth
of the Mackenzie river and thence
across the dread Rat Portage to
tort Yukon, a journey that occu
pied a year and a hall' in the wil
derness, Service bore more than his
share ot the hardship and agony of
the journey.
When fame and recognition had
come to this northern bard and he
was called to ine. outside, ho did
not want to leave the north and
the peoplo he had come to know
and who had come to know him. In
the cabin on the hill that he oc
cupied they found pinned to the
wall the verses ol' which the follow
ing stanzas are a part:
"Oil, dear little c-abin, I vo loved you
so long,
And now I must bid you goodbye;
I've tilled you with laughter, I've
cheered you with soaig,
And sometimes I've wished I
could cry.
You; walls, they have witnessed a
weariful 'iglit,
And rung to a won Waterloo,
But ch, In my triumph I'm wea.ry
tonight—
Goodbye, little cabin, to you.
"I hear the world call and the
clang of the fight;
I hear the hoarse cry of my kind;
Yet well do I know as 1 quit you
tonight,
It's Youth that I'm leaving1 u«
hind.
And often I'll think of you, empty
and black.
Moose antlers nailed over your
door;
Oh, if I should perish my soul will
come back
To dwell in you, caMn, once
more."
Same critics say the lines are not
true poetry, but that makes no dif
ference to tho northerners. The
versos have an appeal to them, for
they express the feelings which
northerners can understand.
Iiu'ido of the cabin are a number
of inscriptions and liiottos written
by Service when ho was struggling
for the recognition which later came
to hiui. The raspberry bushes and
flowers which Service planted are
still in the yard.
The cabin belougs to 'Mrs. Esther
Clark, whose husband purchased it
because of the magnificent north
and south view of t}ie Yukon which
it furnished. Mrs. Clark rented j
the cabin to Service and when the ■
northern poet left the Yukon he
turned it over to Major Noble, j
Mrs. Clark's will provides that tho 1
cabin must not be sold but must:
be kept as Service left it, tout if |
