Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Dick Kent, Fur Trader" by Milton Richards is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Dick Kent, a young fur trader, who becomes involved in a tense mystery involving the search for a fabled mountain pass known as Blind Man’s Pass. As Dick interacts with various characters, including a prospector named Murky Nichols and members of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police, the narrative builds around themes of adventure, crime, and the survival instincts in the harsh Northern wilderness. At the start of the book, Dick Kent is introduced while he listens to a conversation in a trading post about the late Daddy McInnes, a trapper whose journey through the mountains has become a topic of intrigue. The discussion reveals suspicions surrounding McInnes's death and the possibility of a secret pass known to the Indigenous people but dismissed by others as myth. As Dick eavesdrops, he learns that Corporal Rand of the Mounted Police is investigating Murky Nichols, who has been acting suspiciously due to his possible involvement with crime and the location of the pass. The opening sets a suspenseful tone as Dick's curiosity propels him into the unfolding mystery surrounding potential illegal activities intertwined with the wilderness trapper's life.
