Flossie de Atley
Flossie de Atley was a favourite subject for a Klondike gold rush era cartoonist with the Klondike Nugget who showed her with her finger in her mouth and staring into space. One miner recalled that Flossie could take a man to the cleaners faster and better than any other girl in town. That was saying a lot because there were many in town that were adept. She would say she had a sick brother in a sanatorium outside and needed money to travel.1)
