| Date | n.d. |
| Notes | Caption on image: Mollie Walsh, the wonder girl of White Pass Trail. Alone and without help in the winter of 1897-8 she ran a tent road-house and fed and lodged the wildest and most persistent men Alaska ever saw and remained as clean morally as the snow that fell on her tent. If there are still men on earth who ate Mollie's frugal meals, and were sheltered by her tent, let them thank their God for having had that lucky chance, for as sure and as long as snow falls on Alaska, Mollie Walsh will be remembered as the girl on whose headstone could be most fittingly inscribed: Here Lies Drama! Mollie Walsh was murdered by her husband, October 28th, 1902.
