The Late Isabel Briggs.
In MEMORIAM.


The subject of this sketch, Isabel
Cook, was born in Central Township,
Guernsey Co., Ohio, Feb. 8, 1872
At the same place. August Ii, 1888,
she was united in marriage with Al
bert Briggs She was a daughter of
John and Julia Ann Cook of Ohio,
and came of sturdy race of pioneers.
The young couple moved to Seneca
Co.. Ohio, and thence in 1874 to
Noble Co. From there, in 1916, they
removed to Chicago, and from there
to Jackson Co., Iowa. In 1S47 they
joined the westward bound tide of
immigration, and settled in Oregon.
In 1852 they came to Port Townsend
and settled on the shore of our beaus
tiful bay where they lived in undis-
turbed domestic happiness till the
day Of Mrs. Briggs death, Nov. 22,
1888. Last August the tifty-ffth
anniversary of their wedding was
celebrated at the old homestead, at.
tended by a few intimate friends.
Judge Briggs. who was brother OF
the late Ansell Briggs, first governor
of Iowa, and who has held various
positions of public trust in Washing
ton Territory, from member of the
legislature down to county judge,
has faithfully carried out in his life
the true spirit of frontier adventure.
Never satisfied till he found Port
Townsend Bay, he located here and
patiently waited for the civilization
of the older states to catch up to
him.
Through all the vicissitudes, and
the ups and downs of more than
half century the faithful and de-
voted wife of his youth walke1 by
his side-trusting, loving, and shar-
ing fortune still death do US part. ;"
Somewhat older than her husband,
she first departed for her long home
beyond the unseen shadows" there
to await, let US hope, a glad re-un-
ion on Resurrection morn.
Mrs. Briggs was a devoted mem-
ber of the Nj. E. church, and died
happy and peaceful in. the. faith.
Her life and domestic virtues were
such as to commend her to ala
bright example for the rising gener-
alton. 1t was a singular coincidence
that Mrs. Briggs and the late Mrs.
S. H. Hill-founders of the H. E.
church in Port Townsend-both
went to their glory hottie within a
few days. Mrs. Briggs had lived
through all the phases of frontie-
| life. and had onls Jew months ago
, aeslsted in breaking ground for the
railroad for which grading was be-
gun within a few rods of her home.
Judge Briggs has the sympathy Of
hosts of friends in his loneliness.
Childless and alone, he can still re-
| fleet that the memory of her whose
life was SO inseparably linked with
his own is a precious legacy in it
self.

Saturday afternoon, near Port
Townsend, the crew of Greek fisher
men captured large octopus, or
devil fish, weighing about $50 pounds
and measuring 16 feet in length.
This marine monster lived for sew
eral hours after leaving its native
sea. His capture was a complete
surprise to the captors, and for a
considerable time they were at a
loss to know whether they should re-
lease this most hideous terror of the
seas or whether they should bring 1t
to Seattle to satiate the never firing
zeal of the tourist aad curiosity seek
er, as well as that of the student of
natural history. Fortunately the
latter idea prevailed, and now it is
on exhibition at the museum of Mr.
Collins, corner of Third and Marion
streets. No fabulous work of an
cient sculpture or deified image of
the idolator ever presented a more
hideous or awful aspect than this
immense devil fish, now an acquisi-
tion to the marine collection of one
of our established museums. This
fish is indeed a study of itself, and
Mas perhaps be a puzzle to the Ia, .av-
uralist. Its GGiutiey appearance, with
spots OF pink and purple, its eight
long arms, each with about 200 suck
ers, the formidable appearance of its
mouth and its glaring eyes makes
this fish an object which may we'll be
said to be awe insDirinp- The
strength of its arms is enormous, and
when it lays hold Of its prey its
suckers at once fasten deathly
grip upon its victim. In fact, this
octopus is a deep study for the nat
uralist and rare sight worth be-
holding by both citizens and tourists
