The records of the U. s. Com missioner here show that 1854 was the year of the romantic boom in Wrangell. Whether it was the bet ter fishing season or new teachers and nurses coming to town is any body's guess but the records show that 17 marriages were performed here last year. Compare this with 1853 the year of no fish - when only six marriage knot were tied. or with 1852 when there were nine and 1851 with only 10 and a sharp rise is indicated that hash t been evident since '45-67 when the boys came marching home"
 The year of the bad fishing sea- son. '53. had a new low for births in Wrangell of B. Last year brought that up to 35 but still is far short of the record year of '51 which had 45. Tn 1852 there were 41 births.
 For deaths. 1851 holds the re- cord of 21 and. fortunately, that has dropped off considerably since with only a slight rise from 13 in le52 to IA last year. Low year was 1852 with only II deaths.
