Rev. Marquis To
Preach Cordova
I he Rev. R, R. Marquis of Nenana,
who recently took over, temporarily,
the duties attached to the Anchorage
Presbyterian church, arrived in Sew
ard on the last steamer from the
South and departed yesterday for An
chorage. While in the city, Rev.
Marquis conferred with Joe Badger,
proprietor of the Van Gilder hotel,
in the matter of reservations for the
United Society of Christian Endeav
or party, arriving in Seward next
month.
Rev. Marquis has been attending
the Yukon Presbytery which con
vened at Cordova this year. He
reached Cordova via Fairbanks and
he Richardson Highway. Reverend
Scherer has left Alaska, after five
vears of service, and has gone to
Denver to meet Mrs. Scherer. Ua
di a successor can be secured, the
dev. Marquis will intermittantly
uake trips to Cordova from Anchor
age.
The trip over the highway was
vonderful, Rev. Marquis said, little
lifficulty being encountered, regard
ess of the fact the trip over made so
iarly in the season. On one section
>f the road the car became stuck
lue to a submerged piece of roadbed.
V. team was required before the trip
•ould be continued.
