An old-fashioned house-warming and
general good time was held out at
^ Strelna last Friday night, when every
body from far and near gathered in
the new cottage built near Dwyer’s
bungalow inn to celebrate the moving
^ in of its owner, Captain Shang Gan
ley, well-known old-timer of the Kus
kolina. Besides twenty-five or more
employes of the railroad company,
there were present the following
ladies: Mrs. Ole Berg, Mrs. Clara
Dwyer, Mrs. Balio, Mrs. Nafsted, from
Tonsina; Mrs. Griffiths, from Gul
hana; Mrs. Angus McLeod and Mrs.
George Scott. Mrs. Berg and Mrs.
Dwyer were in charge of the eats,
which included mountain sheep, trout,
mallard ducks and Boston baked
beans, baked in a hole in the ground.
When everybody actually had enough,
Joe Irvine, who came north ’wav back
in 1861, and expored the Cassair and
Carabon (B. C.) districts, sent forth
the skirl of an old Scotch bagpipe as
an “invitation to the dance.” It was
a day long to be remembered.
