Letter Recalls
 Old Timers

Mir, Worden recently received a letter from Capt. w. D. Moore asking him to send some photos of Wrangell and the Stikine river.
 This letter recalls to a number of Wrangell's oldest citizens rem iniscences of this family of pic. neers, the "Moore's . and a num- Der of the old timers remember Capt. Wm. Moore, who brought the first stern wheeler into Alas ka waters and for number of years made regular trips from Wransell to within few miles of Glenora, B. C.
 This boat was called the Fly ing Dutchman and although we are unable to find out if this boat was named at Wrangell or not it is presumed that she was christ ened with a bottle of book beer in honor of our esteemed friend Ed. Ludecke, as it is said that Lew" was flying some in those days without the aid of a monoplane,
 A little of the inside history of the Moore family can be gleaned by the fact that they all appeared to be pioneers in the steamboat business. The father, Capt. Wm. Moore, made his first trip on the Stikine, from Wrangell to within a few miles of Glenora, in 1862. In 1874, ". D. Moore and ]. w, Moore, sons of Capt. Vim. Moore, came to Wrangell and according to statement made in the letter re- ceived were the discovers of gold on Dease Creek in the Cassiar mining country,
 1 Later on one of the Captains sons went up the Lynn canal and staked off liberal piece of land and built the first wharf In what is now known as Skagway.
 It would appear that a man who had the nerve to tackle the Stikine with a river boat built in those days would have monoply of the business, but this does not appear to be the case, for soon after the Moore's had engaged in the river traffic Capt. J. c. Callbreath pur- chased a river steamer called the Alaskan and soon after became a keen rival of the Moore family for the transportation business. It might be news to many who have paid from sI7,5o to 5000 each for tickets to Telegraph Creek to know that the fare in those days did not exceed S1o, 100 up river to a point near Glenora, and during the days of the Moore and Call breath fight over the transporta- ton business I am told that the fare dropped to s2, 50.
 l Tbe son, Capt. w. D. Moore, who now resides at St. Michael, Alaska, does not give much infor' nation in reference to his present occupation but it is learned thru other sources that he has for . number of years owned or operated boats plying between St. Michael and Dawson Y.' T.
