Quotes 

• [Frank puts another prisoner in Jeff's jail cell] 

  Frank Newberry : Company for you; Doc Vallon, best doc in Skagway.

  Frank Newberry : I wouldn't crowd him, Doc, he's pretty sore - figures you could have saved Diggy's hand.

  Doc Vallon : But the bones were crushed! There was nothing but to do but amputate!

  Frank Newberry : Maybe, but you sure ruined a good piano player.

  Doc Vallon : But the bones were crushed! There was nothing but to amputate!

• Doc Vallon : [In a jail cell]  Oh, the medical profession, it is most difficult in Alaska!
