A.W.H. Smith was the bookkeeper for the Barringtons’ company Side Stream Navigation Co. established in 1909.((Nancy Warren Ferrell, //White Water Skippers of the North: The Barringtons.// Hancock House, 2008: 101, 113.))
In 1910, Smith was the secretary-treasurer and promoter of Dr. W.E. Thompson’s Dublin Hydraulics Company.((Michael Gates, “History Hunter: Mining on Dublin Gulch has a long history.” //Yukon News// (Whitehorse), 14 February 2019.)) A full-page ad appeared in the //Dawson Daily News// Christmas edition. Preferred shares could be purchased for $2.50 each by contacting Smith at the office of mining broker and fiscal agent T. A. Firth in Dawson. No actual mining took place on the concession for several years.((Michael Gates, //Dublin Gulch: A History of the Eagle Gold Mine.// Lost Moose, 2020: 13.)) 

Smith enlisted in the First World War in 1914. He was in the Canadian Railroad Troops No. 10, part of the Canadian Expeditionary Force, and he fought overseas. He was wounded twice and after he returned he followed the Barringtons when they left the Yukon to work out of Wrangell, Alaska.((Nancy Warren Ferrell, //White Water Skippers of the North: The Barringtons.// Hancock House, 2008: 101, 113.))
