"Dick Kent with the Malemute Mail" by Milton Richards is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The book follows the adventures of Dick Kent, who, along with his companions, is tasked with delivering crucial medical aid during a smallpox epidemic in the northern territories, highlighting their courage and resilience against numerous challenges they face along their journey. At the start of the story, we are introduced to a bleak wilderness where the protagonist, a young prospector named Davis, returns to a cabin and reveals to an old man, Mr. Harbinson, that he has failed to fulfill a critical mission to seek help regarding a devastating smallpox outbreak that threatens the local population. The narrative quickly escalates as Davis decides to notify the police about the outbreak, and we learn of his plans to journey to Mackenzie River Barracks to seek assistance. The situation intensifies with a series of events, including Davis feeling the weight of embarrassment over his failure, as well as the unsettling sense of a creeping menace in the desolate wilderness, setting up a suspenseful plot filled with urgency and the struggle against overwhelming odds.
