immediately applied to the governor
for help, with the result that they will
soon have a school for children. Mr.
N. M. Sweetser was elected director,
with Mr. J. G. Ellis as treasurer, and
Mr. John Wick, secretary.

Juneau Pioneer Dies.
John G. Peterson, the first tinner to
locate in Juneau, is dead at Pearl har
bor as the result of cancer of the
stomach. Doomed to d^ath by the ad
vice of the best medical experts of
the United States and) Europe, the
pioneer uncomplainingly awaited
death’s summons surrounded by his
family at Pearl Harbor, a place which
he loved and where he wished to be
buried.
John G. Peterson came to Juneau
over 20 years ago. He had learned
his trade as tinner in Germany, and
was an expert in that line. Later he
acquired lode claims at Pearl Harbor,
and at one time made considerable
money out of a bond on them. Even
tually the claims reverted to him and
for the past few years he operated a
small mill on the property.
