 At the tea I met a Mrs. J. 2. Sexton, who wore her Dawson badge. She mentioned having lived next to MT. and Mrs. Guffey on Whidby Island where both had a home for Al years. MT. Guffey died all of 20 years ago and Mrs. Guffey, who planned to attend this reunion, passed away August 21st. There were six sons, all born in Nome None of the sons is liv- ing on the island tho two reside in Seattle. One son is dead.

 Dancing at the ball were Gus Mask, Dick Racine, MT. Siever- son, Charles Holkie and Oliver Anderson. saw Mrs. Dustin and the Bill Kelseys, Andy Box, Mrs Benawa, MT. Debaum @ who worked for Tony Polet, and Bill Pangman, who looks just as young as he did 30 years ago in spite of being blind. He gets by surprisingly we'll, even to dancing.
 Bertha Mckay was enjoying herself to the utmost at the ball. You could see the old-timers are dear to her heart. Slim Rydeen dosen't take a back seat for any old-timer past 8O; and Alice is just as active at 70 as she was at 50. Mrs. Morrison has been their house guest and she so enjoyed this gathering, saying it was just like being in Nome again. I also saw Dave Runyan and daughter, Jane Maddox, Mrs. Dustin, MT. and Mrs. Paul Swartz, and Big. Mcintyre.
 There were 86 couples in the grand march, with far more sit ting on the sidelines. They marched to the old tune "I'm A-Workin' on the Railroad" and it was so poppy the old-timers had to march in spite of them selves.
 Thru all these main events there were many little snack par ties by the different groups, but was lucky to make the main doings, as it kept Art busy driving me to the functions and getting to places on time. This business of covering distances in all this traffic is just beyond me-not to mention the parking situation.
