Yukon fame, had just received the

News. Christie will be remem
bered as the man who fought a
nand-to-hantl battle on the upper
Stewart with a great big grizzly;
bear. Jim's jaw was badly fractured
in. that fight, find' lie wag.frightful
ly lacerated, but after long and care
£ul nursing by Mr. and Mrs. Ferrell
at their nost, he recovered'. Later &e
cam® 10 Dawson, and was further
created here by Dr. W, E. Thomp
son. It was the same fearless spirit
which abused Jim to defy the bear
that prompted him also to defy the
kaiser and to go overseas gunning
for the Hohenzollera grizzly. Miss
Thompson wrote to her parents
March 19 as follows:
"Do you remember an o!d timer,
Jim Christie, who had property on
DublU gujcli? He c-anie up on Sun
day to see ouo of the Sisters, and,
in the course of conversation, iny
name was mentioned. When told

I was nroduced. He recalled' jtour

tricia's Light Infantry. He has
just received the military cross.
He also has the D. C. Al. He must
have done a few brave deeds to
deserve both. He says. Jack Sut
