Accidental Death
of David S. Troy
The Seattle Times of recent date
tells of the killing of David S. Troy,
brother of John \V. Troy, of the Ju
neau Empire, as follows:
“Something went wrong when for
mer state Senator David S. Troy
started his automobile on the wharf
of the Glendale dairy at Port Town
send yesterday afternoon and the
car shot into the bay, precipitating
Troy, his mother, Mr. and Mrs. Al
len Weir into the bay. Early this
morning Troy died as a result of the
injuries he received; Mrs. Troy, who
is 75 years of age, is suffering from
a severe shock, and Allen Weir, an
early secretary of state anil one of
best historians in Washington, lies in
a critical condition in a Port Town
send hospital.
Senator Troy was one of three
brothers prominent in democratic po
litics in this state and in Alaska.
He was the author of the bill that
created the department of agricul
ture in this state and could have had
the appointment as commissioner last
year had he been willing to accept
it. Troy had an ambition to reor
ganize the bureau as he planned it to
be and attempted to arrange his af
fairs to accept the appointment.
He had been manager and partner
of the Ladd estate, of Portland, in a
big dairy farm at Chimacum and
branches scattered through Jefferson
and Clallam counties. Senator Troy
found it impossible to dispose of his
interests of the Ladd estate.”
Captain R. O. Lenoir, formerly in
charge of the cable and land lines at
Valdez, now stationed at Seattle with
enlarged powers, was recently oper
ated on for appendicitis and is about
again.
Interesting Legend
of the Aborigines
The Indian legends, with their mix
ture of superstitions and poetry, are
not uninteresting in connection with
the story of this great country. One
pertaining to the origin of the na
tive tribe of Alaska is thus told:
“A long time ago it is said the
earth sank beneath the water, and
the water rose and covered the high
est places, so that no man could live.
It rained so hard it was as if a sea
fell from the sky. All was black,
and it became s odark that no man
kn°w another. Then a few people
ran here and there and made rafts
of cedar logs, but nothing could
stand together against the white
waves ,and the raft was broken in
two . On one part floated the an-,
cestors of the Thlinkets, on the other
the parents of all the other nations.
The water tore them apart and they
never saw each other again. Now
their children are all different and do
not understand each other.—Ex.
