UNION ........ A most remarkable]
story of un.selfisll devotion and ]
effoi't lo a fine cause is evidenced I
in the construction of the new
Skokomisi Shaker Chnrch, on pre-
cisely tle same spot on which
the ancient old Shaker edificel
tood.
i
The nmterials used were donat-
ed to the Shaker group by Henry
Cultee Sr. Most. of the labor imv-
ing also been that of Cultee and
his son l%ichard. The two men
,tarted the chnrch July 10, 1961,
and although neither Henry Cultee
Sr., or son Richard, belon K to the
;haker chnrch, or are of that
faith, they consider it t labor of
gratitude and o£ brotherly love, in
appreciation for wimt they consi-
der a most remarkable instance
of faith-healing for small Henry
Cultee.
Tim young child was striiken
with a paralysis some time ago,
and his condition was admittedly
most serious by the pediatricians
;md specialists to whom tm was
taken, and who also observed him
while iu was hospitalized both
in Seattle and Tacoma. It was
while small Henry Cultee was in
Tacoma that the Shaker group
toolt over and began their prayers
and also shaking over the sick
child, it was stated he began to
improve. Later he was able to re-
turn to Iris lmme aL Skokomish
place. The faitlfful Shakers kept
up their prayers and treatments
of shaking sez,¢iee.
PODAY the child is completely
normal and playing about out in
the yard with other children of
the familY, and playmates. Ever
since that time the entire Cultee
lamlly have wanted to express
their feeling of thankfulness, m
prayer, but also in a more sub-
stantial manner to the church.
Two years ago when there ap-
peared to be a "rift in the lute"
of the Skokomish Shaker group,
and which brought a temporary

imlt to the work which had
been started on the foundation of
lhe new building, tbe Cultees saw
their opportunity to express their
good will, and also their feeling'
of gratitude. Henry Cultee Sr.,
grandfather of the little child, and
Richard, the son who is working]
along daily with ills father in l
completing the fine new church,
eel to work and have siuce devoted
their days to labor on the build-!
ing. Another son, Henry Jr., load-
er at Simpsons camp, and son-in-
law Mike Davis, and another son
Edward, have each worked on wir-
ing of the building after their
days' labor in the woods, Edward
being a hooktender at Mr. Walker.
FItlI)A¥ at'termmn Mr. Cultee
Sr. and Richazxl were kemtouing
the interior and paused long en-
ough to pose for a photo or two
before the building. The dome and
tall steeple are projects next in
line. It is interesting to note that
the ancient bell which stood in
the old-time church over 100 years
old will be hung in the steeple, The
chimney to accomodate the wood
leater is next in line.
As there is still a debt of $1800
hanging over the structure, and
which when completed will be
worth as Henry Cultee estinmted
$30,000, women of the church
have been having bake sale to!
aid. Last Saturday a combirdl
bake sale, plate dinner served, in
the "Long house", or community!
hall at $1 per plate, and which
included both baked salmon and
turkey, and all the trimmings
drew a crowd from distant places.
The Shaker groups of Ozgon,
iorthem California and east of
the mountains, and some from Bri-
tish Columbia are now lending a
hand with funds donated to com-
pletion of the church. Soon Hen-
ry Cultee and son Rlclard, both
of whom are fishermen, as well
as carpenters emd craftsmen, will
be leaving for the fishing grounds
to worlCtheir drift gill nets along
the ocean beaches north of West-
port and nearby fishing grounds
available to them as former Qui-
naults, and now with Skokomish
fishing rights through marriage
with a Skokomish woman.
IN ADDITION to the celebra-
tion of the new churches' dedica-
tion of early September, is also
the large convention to follow,
when shakers of the Pacific
Northwest will c0ngegate.
Starting over half a century
ngo the Shaker religion has'spread
over the Pacific northwest, in-
cluding tribes east of the Cas-
cades, and on up the west coast
to Canada and Alaska. All day
and most of the night the preach-
mg and singing or chanting will
go on sometimes in Chinook ann
also a little in delate, and also
some in English.
Lee Cash is leader of the Sko-
komish Church and Mrs, .Cash-one
of its dedicated workers.
Neophytes oz' those slightly
touched With the fever, others on
the verge of back-sliding will be
prayed and sung and shook over
until they feel the manifestations
and join with the rest of the
throng of believers. Igor is the in-
ner man to be slightedbaked
almon, balbecued beef, clams,
and all sorts of baked goods, and
bushels of toiled potatoes will

Mr, nad Mrs. A. C. Mercier have
Lad a had time during the past
couple of x,eeks with the smnmer
flu, and had evidently made a re-
covery of sorts, where they made
a trip to Seattle to take in the

RONNIE ALLEN, son of Mr.

has been living in San Francisco
during the past yem ol- so, has
returned to Union. He )rought
with him Lucas Re'yes, a friend,
who is also a clever hand with a

Mr. and Mrs. Basler, Chicago,
who have been visiting at the
Randall Updyke home for the past
two weeks left last Monday for
their home.
CaseySupple, 14, Encino, Calif.,
who has spent his entire sumnler
vacation with the Updykea, left
Tuesday for his home. Casey made
the trip to Westport Monday with
Randall Updyke for a fishing ex-
pedition, the remflt being the duo
limited in sahnon. A pleasant me-
mory for the lad.
A BABY swallow, falling out
of its nest at the McConkey home
last week and landing in the wa-
ters of the Canal, was the cause
of Mrs. Paul Jones casting off her
shoes, and taking a sudden plunge
into the brine to rescue the fled-
gling, which was being carried
lurther off shin's. The fact that
she didn't stop to remove her
clothing before taking the phmge,
also that her spirits were not
dampened by the Canal waters in
the rescue, but happily returned
the small bird to its nest, and then
took a quick glance around to
see if anyone had noticed her
sudden take-off---clothing and all
made the tale more interesting
At last hearing all was well with
the swallow family.
Mrs. Midge Stark, Pulhnan, was
a visitor at the Stark home Thurs-
day night and Friday. She left
for the return to Pullman Friday
evening with a young woman
friend who accompanied her. Miss
Merrilee Stark will remain on at
her grandparents' home a few
cays before her return home.

The Union home of Mrs. Pat
(Wanda) Nilson was sold the lat-
ter part of July to Mr. and Mrs.
H. Barnett, who are now once

ALTItOUGI! it is hard to be-
lieve, former residents of the old
hatchery house of 42 years ago,
had an acre or lwo of fine gar-
dan where the river now flows
loday. The family enjoyed a real
adventm'e witb their first garden,
• a lil tle Jersey cow they pur-!
chased from Tom Vtebb, and also
a Titian cohwed pig--all part of:
the interesting and oft times am-
using experience of "really living"
and which would be interesting
writing material fox' the late Bet-
ty McDonald, or her sister, Mary
Bard Jensen of Seattle.
CLO, I0, TO THE old fislLhatch-
cry site beside the roadway there
still nmy be seen a hole leading
down into the tmmel of the coal
mine Wlfich old Rodney White of
Tahuya made on one of his ex-
ploring trips a half century or
more ago. Old Rodney found a vein
of coal but which proved to be
bituminous, and was abandoned
by the old negro. Many of these
ohl-time tales were written down
by the late Ed J. Datby in 1942,
bnt his book was never completed
at the time of his passing in late
1946.
Many improvements have been
noted around the vicinity of late,
and the attempt to turn the Skok
back in is former channel, and
cut back the long bat" across the
river, may aid in restoring the
land where the river took over
years ago. Blasting and work of
road crews may lmlp do the trick.
Miss Mary Buechel left Mon-
day of last week for Seattle, where
she boarded a bus for Vancouver,
B.C. to transfer by boat for a six-
hour, trip to the Young Life camp,
Camp Malibu, where she will
spend a week on vacation before
retm'ning to make ready for her
departure after Labor Day for Se-
attle, where she will attend Acad-
emy of Holy. Names.
MR. AND MRS. BILL Timm
and children attended a family
reunion at Snohomish at the home
of Helen's parents, Mr. and :Mrs.
Carl Chaffee recently. On their
return home son Bill remained on
joy a trip out in the hills with
his grandfather, who was fortun-
ate in drawing a permit for a
goat hunt in tim Cascades at the
opening of the season after La-
bor Day. This is Chaffee's secon(1
,treak of good luck in drawing
the lucky ticket for a permit to
hunt goats. The permils are m'awn
at Olympia, and Chalice drew a
ticket permit two years in suc-
cession and which is also aid to
be most unusual. Meanwhile Diane
'Pimm is the house guest of Mrs.
Olson, Helen's sister in Bremerton
fox' the week.
Mrs. Don Beckman is visiting
her sister-in-law, Mrs. Jean Reed,
Seattle.
Fritz Wilbur and Ed Dalby
made a fishing trip last week,
which resulted in Dr. Wilbur say-
ing "You take all the fish this
time Ed", and with a fish dinner
in mind, the cook found, no fml!
When neither of these two "Isaac
.Waltons" bring home a fish, they
are really off in deep water, or
scarce, or not biting.
Guests in the Merritt Stack
home Thursday evening were Mr.
and Mrs. Harvey Jenson, Ben to-
mend, Calif., and Mr. and Mrs.
Victor Lattier, Bremerton. Mrs.
Jenson and Mrs. Lattier are sis-
ters and all are former Iowa
friends of the Stacks.
