Excerpt from Rod and Gun, and Motor Sports in Canada, Vol. 9: July, 1907 Now Jack Clarey was an athlete in the true sense of the word. He was not a trained athlete, a man who could do a world breaking stunt at one particular hobby, and then go all to pieces if he was asked to walk ten miles. Jack was a born athlete with all his nerves, mus cles and mental faculties working in um ison, consequently hardships that some of us would not dare to face, would be undertaken by Jack as lightly as if he was going to play a game of foot-ball. Nearly everything appealed to him as sport. He was a true friend, a jovial companion and every inch a gentleman, and I am sure there was no young'man who left Montreal in the spring of '98 who was better fitted to stand the trials of the Yukon than he was, and I don't think any of us could compare' our chances of success with his.
