Angeler
In going ovJr old files the other day, A. J. (Gus) Russell, of the Santa Fe Lumber Company, San Francisco, encountered an interesting memento of the bad wreck and fire, caused by train robbers, at Siskiyou, Oregon, in 1923.
The reproduction above is of a check sent by the Santa Fe Lumber Company, to the Patrick Lumber Company, and delivered many weeks later to the payee, with the notation, "This mail damaged by fire and dynamite in hold-up of Ashland & Gerber Train No. 13, at Siskiyou, Oregon, October ll,1923."
In spite of its badly mutilated condition, the Patrick Lumber Company did not hesitate to clear the document, with their endorsement.
LUMBER HAULED BY DOGS
A team of dogs, five Malamutes, was used last winter in hauling lumber from a sawmill near Cordova to the Alaska railroad, a distance of two miles. Each load weighed about three-quarters of a ton, and a shipment of 15,00O feet was hauled by the dogs, for shipment to Seward and Anchorage markets.
