Frank Zimmer built a cabin on the Yukon River in Carmacks in the 1920s. He worked as a trapper and had a mink ranch.((“LaPage Garage.” Carmacks Historical Buildings: Walking Tour. Yukon Historic Sites, no date: 4.)) In 1936, Zimmer saw un upturned canoe pass his cabin and he took his boat out to rescue A.R. Hayes who was clinging to the side of the boat. Hayes was unconscious when they reached shore but Zimmer was able to revive him. RCMP Constable J.P. Hartnett drowned in the accident. He had been paddling in the back while Hayes, who could not swim, was in the bow with no paddle.((“Drowning fatality occurs at Carmacks when canoe upsets in Yukon River: Police Constable Drowns While telegrapher has Narrow Escape.” //The Whitehorse Star// (Whitehorse), 11 September 1936.))
