"ALIKOMIAK, convicted murderer; b. probably in the Bathurst Inlet–Coronation Gulf region, N.W.T.; d. by hanging 1 Feb. 1924 at Herschel Island, Y.T."

... officials responsible for law in the north had come to believe that leniency had had the opposite effect to the one intended and that the Inuit thought murder was taken lightly by the government. Partly as a display of authority, therefore, and partly as a demonstration of Canadian sovereignty, a number of additional mounted police detachments were established on the Arctic coast and islands after World War I.

"The post at Tree River, in the Coppermine–Coronation Gulf region, was manned by Corporal William A. Doak and Constable D. H. Woolams. In December 1921 Doak patrolled to Kent Peninsula to investigate some killings of Inuit by other Inuit. He arrested Alikomiak, a man in his late teens, and Tatamigana, whose age is not known, and took them to Tree River. "
