* TEDDY TAYLOR
BUYS HOTEL
IN SEATTLE
“Teddy” Taylor, the popular chief
steward on the steamship Alaska, has
decided to desert his old occupation
and embark in the hotel business in
Seattle. Mr. Taylor has been on the
Alaska run for the past nineteen years,
during which time he has made a host
of friends in the Northland, all of
whom wil wish him much success in
nis latest business venture. His pres
ent trip will be his last voyage to
Alaska as a steamship employe, and
when his ship returns to Seattle he
wil permanently locate on land, where
he will continue to welcome the “boys
from the North.”
The following deserved tribute is
(paid to Mr. Taylor in a recent issue
of the Post-Intelligencer:
r “This is to be ‘Teddy’ Taylor's last
voyage to Alaska probably in many
years. When he came into port on
the steamship Alaska the news quickly
spread that he had decided to give up
his sea career and locate in the mas
ter's cabin of a big land hotel.
“In connection with J. A. Farnham,
formerly of the St. Charles and other
hotels in Seattle, ‘Teddy’ has pur
chased the lease, good will, furniture
and equipment of the Hotel Atwood,
a new and thoroughly modern build
ing with 125 rooms, located on First
avenue and Pine street, in Seattle,
the deal being consummated on July
15. The popular chief steward is now
bidding good-bye to his friends
throughout the North, and immedi
ately upon his return to Seattle will
take up the active management of
the hotel jointly with Mr. Farnham.
“Edward Taylor, which is his real
name, is one of the best-known sea
faring men on the Pacific coast. He
came to the coast in 1889, first going
with the Pacific Coast Steamship
Company and later with the Alaska
Commercial Company, and was with
the last-named corporation, when he
was chief steward of the steamship
Portland, remaining with this ship for
ten years. She was wrecked at Spire
island, near Ketchikan, and the wreck
was taken over by the Alaska Coast
Company. Afterward she was ashore
at Entrance island, near Nanaimo, and
finally was a total loss when wrecked
near Katalla in 1910. Taylor was on
board during each of these three mis
haps, as well as having charge of the
passengers during the memorable fifty
six days in 1902 when the Portland
was frozen up in Bering sea.
“About eight years ago he trans
ferred from the Admiral line to the
Alaska Steamship Company, and more
recently has been chief steward of the
Northwestern, Mariposa and Alaska.
He knows the territory like an open
book, and has a speaking acquaintance
with practically every old-timer in the
North, so he will be sorely missed by
those who travel back and forth on
the different steamships.
“He and his partner have entirely
I
refurnished the Hotel Atwood, and in
cluded in the rearrangement is a lit
tle igloo for the exclusive entertain
ment of retired sourdoughs.”
