W. J. Moorhead
	
W.J. Moorhead was born in the north of Ireland. He joined the North-West Mounted Police around 1910 and spent four of his years with the Force fighting in the First World War as captain in charge of a Canadian field battalion from Alberta. Capt. Moorhead arrived in the Yukon in March 1920 as the new commanding officer of the RNWMP.((//The Whitehorse Star// (Whitehorse), 10 March 1920.)) The Yukon Rife Association was re-organized at Hamacher’s store in Whitehorse in June 1920.  Capt. Moorhead was elected Captain and F. G. Berton Secretary-Treasurer.((//The Whitehorse Star// (Whitehorse), 4 June 1920.)) In December, Captain Moorhead advised all stampeders planning to travel to the new oil strike at Fort Norman that regulations required them to travel with a year’s subsistence before leaving the territory.((//The Whitehorse Star// (Whitehorse), 17 December 1920.)) The police were flooded with applications from stampeders who wanted to accompany the annual police patrol to Herschel Island and reach the oil fields from that point.((//The Whitehorse Star// (Whitehorse), 17 December 1920.)) 
	
In October 1924, //The Whitehorse Star// reported that another radio was purchased by a Whitehorse resident to bring the number of sets to four. E.H. Johnson joined Judge Bell, Lyle Geary, and Capt. Moorhead would be kept aware of events outside the Yukon through radio reports. It was thought that Moorhead was leaving Whitehorse and his position with the police.((//Whitehorse Star// (Whitehorse), 10 October 1924.)) In April 1925, Captain Moorhead and Constable Cruikshank returned to Dawson from Fortymile, travelling by dog team.((//Whitehorse Star// (Whitehorse), 24 April 1925.)) I have not yet found when Capt. Moorehead left the Yukon.
