F.M. Fenton

F.M. Fenton was mining company Yukon Gold’s hydraulic supervisor. Yukon Consolidated Gold Corp acquired Yukon Gold’s assets in the Klondike in April 1927. The hydraulic operation depended on water supplied by the Twelve Mile Ditch, last used by Yukon Gold in 1925. In mid-April 1927, Fenton returned to manage the operation.((Lewis Green, //The Gold Hustlers.// Alaska Northwest Publishing Company, 1977: 245.)) He travelled the ditch and in June reported that all repairs were made, and the big hydraulic monitors would start at the end of the month.((//Whitehorse Star// (Whitehorse, 17 June 1927.))
