After
the
death
of
her
partner,
Mrs.
Stanford
spent
some
time
beyond
the
Arctic
Circle
working
in
the
Anglican
Church
hospital
at
Fort
Yukon.
In
1935
sue
accepted
the
position
of
commissioner
and
recorder.
She
didn't
particularly
want
the
)ob
but
she
took
it
in
order
to
let
the
regular
commissioner
have
a
year's
holiday.
Mrs.
Stanford
worked
In
the
hospital
during
Uie
day
and
did
the
recording
in
the
evenings
but
an
epidemic
of
measles
swept
into
the
little
settlement
and
the
extra
burden
proved
too
much
for
her
and
the
doctor
ordered
her
to
leave
the
interior.
Fort
Yukon
was
originally
ereated
as
a
Hudson's
Bay
Company
fur
post
and
Mrs.
Stanford
said
there
are
still
native
living
in
the
community
whose
parents
came
from
the
MacKen-ie
River
basin.
Forced
to
take
a
rest
Mrs.
Stanford
spent
the
winter
of
1S35-36
in
California
and
Texas
but
spring
called
her
norm
again.

as

Stanford."
has
fully
qualified
for
a
place
among
the
Sourdoughs
of
the
two
countries.
She
and
her
husband
left
Chilli
wack
in
J
902
to
seek
their
.fortune
in
Alaska.
Nome
was
then-first
step
but
they
soon
moved
to
Council
which
is
about
80
miles
overland
but
much
farther
by
gasboat
and
horse-drawn
scow
along
the
coast
and
up
the
Neuckllk
River,
as
the
Sun
fords
travelled.
.
After
2
or
3
years
in
Council
Mr.
and
Mrs.
Stanford
returned
to
Nome.
Whenever
their
mining
luck
ran
out
the
couple
turned
to
the
restaurant
business.
There
was
always
a
demand
for
wholesome
home-cooked
meats
and,
when
the
stake
was
made,
the
Stantords
hit
the
adventure
trail
again.
March
of
1908
found
them
on
their
way
to
Ophir,
a
540-mile
trip
with
a
team
of
nine
dogs.
Describing
the
trip
in
her
forthright
speech
that
still
holds
the
burr
of
lier
native
Scotland,
"Mother
Stanford"
declared:
"l
enjoyed
the
trip
fine.
There
were
roadhouses
practicaily
all
the
way
and
we
only
slept
out
2
or
3
nights."
It
was
gold
that
took
them
to
Ophir
and
It
was
gold
that
took
them
dwn
the
Yukon
again
as
far
as
Ruby.
They
-were
there
a
year
when
word
went
around
that
a
strike
had
been
made
at
Tolstoy,
40
miles
from
Ophir
o
back
they
went.
They
built
a
roadhouae
at
Tolstoy
but
Mrs.
Stanford
dotftrts
if
there
is
a
building
left
standing
to
mark
the
spot
today.

Alfred
Charles
Kinsey,
author
of
the
scientific

What
most

Is
that
there
is
also
a
Mrs.
Kinsey

In

it

down
