4 RESPONSE BY
 KINDRED SPIRITS

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 Club and every one of the 400 resident souls of slagwaI desire to extend their greetings and thanks for the hospitable reception of Mir. George Mowl, skagway's rep resentatiye citizen, in the city of Lon don. The public functions devised in honor of our distinguished eumissary at the center of the world, not only marks an epoch, in the civic history of skagway, but has added rare store of reminiscence and anecdote to the extensive and varied repertoire of our leading conversationalist and raconteur. For several years to come exciting memoirs of war and wild west struggles will be side-tracked fer descriptions of the distinguished and edifying good fellowship our repre- sentative has discovered at old West minister. Heretofore we have always associated Westminster with the illus trious dead. but Brother Mowl 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 of the best of them. While we don't 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 where the rich duke draws his fat rent roll on that account From now on, how ever. Westminster will have a live Her attraction for Us as we feel that 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 pr. Darby and his jolly committee which headquarters at the Cumberland Stores, where the genial Mir. and Mrs. Axtman preside over and puwey the best cheer in Merry England. that from now on. 15 Beak Street. in Lon don w. Cwhatever that isl, will be a guiding star to distract us from the ancient abbey.
 And Maddox Street, in that same incomprehensible London w., at the Mason Arms. where MT. and Mrs. Conyer 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 royalty 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.
