100 Years Ago
From the February 17, 1899, Mason County Journal:
The Siwashes are beginning to move to Lillewaup to await the
coming of herring and spring salmon.
We have had a game of "freeze-out" here on the Canal. It was
closed up with ice for miles. Jacob Hauptly was three days last week
breaking ice from Clifton to Union City with a boat-load of meat.
"J. Bert Forbes and bride" arrived in Shelton on the steamer
Wednesday evening and are at home at the Dipman. Bert went to
Alderton Monday where he was married to Miss Marie E. Bowman
at the home of her parents. The groom is the youngest son of
Pioneer John B. Forbes, of Kamilche and is a Mason County boy
born and raised while his bride also has many friends gained by her
occasioned visits to Shelton. The JOURNAL wishes the happy cou-
ple success in life.
