"Big Bill' n*a-;te a substantial for
tune on Cleary; later made an ex
tensive world tour and wound up in
.Fairbanks with a lot of travel ex
periouce but very Bhort of cash.
Later he went into the Koyukuk and
sptut a couple of seasons there, but
did no particular good for himself
and left for the Idita-rod section in
1910.
Bill's streak oC bad luck followed
hlro to the Idltaronl. and later to
»he Georgetown stampede on the
Kuskokwim, but along in 1911 or
1912 he invented the few remaining
dollars he had in a trading outfit
and went down to the lower Kusk

followed by his death when ouly

Big Bill was a typical Alaskan,

give up altogether and the proof
of his death will be leairned andi re
