BUILDINGS At FORT
N|SQUALLY RESTORED

TACOMA. Wash, May 24.-(A. P)
Buildings at Fort Nisqually, which,
i is believed. are the oldest standing
n the Puget Sound country. have been
estored to the state they were in
when they were used by the Hudson's
Bay Co, as a trading post more than
icventy five years ago.
Fort Nisqually is located at Dupont.
near Tacoma, and the buildings were
estored by the Dupont Powder Com
pany, which operates a plant there.
Dupont is not far from Camp Lewis.
The company intends to maintain the
I'D fort in its restored state.
The fort was established by the
,Hudson's Pay people in 1888 and the
Oldest building now standing on the
site was constructed in lS4S, accord
ing to local records. Until recently
the structure was used as a store
house, its historical importance not
being realized,
Many marks of age are on the build
ing but its hand forged hinges still
hold the doors and windows securely.
Cedar slabs from nearby forests were
used in the construction.
What pioneers say was the first
building constructed by white men in
the Puget Sound country was also at
Nisqually but was torn down years
ago.
Nisqually was established by the old
trading company as a halfway point
