WRANGELL
William Lloyd, for many years i
t resident of Wrangell and pio- ^
iecr of Alaska died Sunday in {
he General Hospital after only
i very short illness. Taken to the ^
lospital with what he called an (
lilmetn of the stomack, exam- 1
nation was made by Dr. Turner ^
vho found nothing wrong. It ,
afer developed that he was suf- •
tering from heart trouble and
in the afternoon passed away.
He was buried Tuesday in the
Redmen’s Cemetery. His fishing
gear he gave away last spring
to one of the fishermen, his real
estate properties he gave to Mr.
and Mrs. John Kusunk and it is
said his cash in various banks,
estimated at $13,000 was left to
the Red Men of Wrangell.
Lloyd was close on to seventy
years of age and had been in the
Wrangell district for more than
30 years, fishing, packing and
selling fish and clams and oth
er lines of endeaver. He was a
good citizen.
Work on the first unit of the
Indian Industrial School was in
stituted last week by contract
ors, Libe. Anderson and Hatton.
Two shifts cf men were put on
to expedite the work by taking
advantage of the good weather.
By last Friday almost two-thirds
of the excavating work had
been completed. Lumber was
delivered to the works from the
Ketchikan Lumber Mills.
Jerry G. Galvin is up with a
crew of men and equipment to

pany was low bidder on the se

The corner stone of the Pres
byterian Church was laid by
Reverend Pederson. The second
stone to be laid in 52 years. Rev.
S. Hall Young laid the first stone
and built the first Protes
ant church in Alaska in 1879.
Few still remain in Wrangell
who witnessed the first cere
mony which has meant so much
to the entire Territory.
Little Bobby Sheldon pulled
his three-year-old sister out of
the bay and called for help. Un
able to bring life back to the
little one workmen called for the
doctor who, after "getting a lot
'f water out of the lungs of the
baby, brought back her breath.
Frank S. Barnes, for many
years owner and operator of the
Lake Bay cannery, died in his
home in Portland recently. Since
1901 Mr. Barnes has been in the
Wrangell district and during
the years he operated his can
nery in Lake Bay, his fishermen
and workmen learned to love
and respect him for his kindli
ness and fairness in all of his
dealings. Are still employed by
his son Frank S. Barnes in the
cannery of the Wrangell Pack
ing Company, men who worked
with and for the senior Barnes
in 1901. Not many other can
ners can point to such a record.
The sympathy of the many
friends of both men in Wrangell
and other communities, is ex
tended to the family in their
hour of bereavement.
Bad weather prevented Rev.!
H. P. Corser from hooking up(
