The DAWSON was a stern-wheeled steamer built in 1898 in Port Blakely for the Canadian Pacific Railway Company. She was built under the direction of Captain James W. Troup and she served on the Yukon River. In 1899, she joined the fleet of the White Pass and Yukon route. She was maintained until 1920. The MINNEAPOLIS was also a stern-wheeled steamer. She was built at Tacoma in 1898 for a group of Midwestern mining enthusiasts using the engines from the OTTER. The JULIA B. was a stern-wheeled steamer built by Cook & Lake in 1908 in Ballard for the Yukon Transportation Company. Notes from Gordon Newell, ed., The H.W. McCurdy Marine History of the Pacific Northwest (Seattle: Superior Publishing Co, 1966).
