Alaskans Tidbits

The Alaskan Gold Rush of the 1890s brought Silky, Reno and Rocky to Skagway, Alaska in search of riches. Since hunting for gold proved too strenuous for them, they found other ways of making a living. Rocky sang in the saloon of bad guy Nifty Cronin. Silky and Reno were just a shade shy of honest, but they never did any serious harm.

Passings

Ray Danton died in 1992 of kidney disease. Jeff York died in 1995 and DeKova in 1981.
