 neat and orderly business house that

Down near the south end of San
Juan island, near the site of old "Calnp

troops during the period of the joint
American and British military occu-
pancy of the San Juan archipelago, all
aged Indian and his squaw are living
in an old "rancherie" we'll up on the
side of q sandy hill, sloping down to a
little beach, where the Canal de HarO
begins to reach out to the nOrthward
from the broad expanse of Fuca strait.
There, for two score years at least, and
not unlikely for half q century or more,
the eyes of the old couple have looked
out upon the waters toward the setting
sun, watching the flooding and the ebb-
ing of the tides. They have lived in
the usual fashion of the Indians of the
Sound, ilnprovident and careless, TAX
ing little thought for the morrow, and
obtaining scant livelihood from fish
ing and hunting and the meager boun-
ty of occasional visitors since the end of
the old military regime. They were

all the years of the joint occupancy,
