IRE, SATURDAY, APRIL 24, 1937 PIONEER WOMAN IS HONGRED BY: JUNEAU GROUP Mrs. John B. Marshall hcst for Interesting Af- fair This: Week On Thursday aftérnoon, April 23 a small number of women were in- formally entertained at an im- promptu afternoon at the home of Mrs.. John B. Marshall, 509 Gold- stein Apartments, in honor of Mrs. William Tamaree, mothér of at- torney William L. Paul of this city. The afternoon was spent in needle- work dnd in récalling early day Al- askan history. Mrs. Tarmaree and IM!\ Anna Snow, two of Alaska's 'best' known women, seventy-six years of age, respectively, were the au- thorized speakers of the aftérnoon, although everyone present had a hair-raising or a mirth-provoking story to téll wheénever shé got a j§ | chance. Mrs. Tamaree, with sparkling ‘eyes jland snowy white hair, stood tall and straight and with that kindly jj expression she has for everyone, | |told in a clear, modulated voice of learly Ametican happenings in Al- She told briefly how in 1876 Ithe first school was opened in Al- |aska and she was one of its first A shy little orphan girl, she had been cared for by foster i§| parents. Her mother, a young na- ‘tive woman, and a little sister had | died, and her father, James Kinnon, a Scotchman, had remained in Vic- torfa. 'The school was opened by Dr. Jackson and Mrs. McFarland of the Presbyterian Board of Home Missions. The Rev. John G. Brady, later Governor of Alaska, was the first diréctor of the school. Soon f Miss Fannie Kellogg arrived from the "states and took charge of the music départment along with other teachers. Dr. S. Hall Young, a young rhissiondry, arrived about this time. Learned Many Things “They were all wonderful peo- ple,” said Mrs. Tamaree. “I loved them all. Such splendid, wonder- fal characters! T studied hard, but I learned many things outside of books. I tried to absorb their very manner and poise and was careful not to forget what I was told.” And then, she said, “best of all was their religion. Their unfailing faith in God. It gave me peace of mind and hope and great happiness.” The next year after the school opened, the Rev. Mr. Brady selected |a site and began to plan a church. {He called the Indians together and *lold them what he wanted to do | land that he had ‘to-have money. ' remains the They understood and immediately began the task of raising funds.' They sold fish, bead work, mocca- baskets and furs to the, trad-| ers and very soon enough money was raised. One whose name was Mrs. Davis, the mother of a little son, gave twenty dollars and said at the time she hoped her son would preach in that church when he grew up. It came true that her son was the first lay preacher and later ordained to the Presbyterian ministry and did preach in that church many times. Although the original church has been rebuilt and repaired, the site same, Mrs. Tamaree told how Dr. S. Hall Young officiated at her marriage to Louis Paul, a converted missionary who was also part native, in 1881. Some years later Dr. Young and Miss Kellogg were married and be- came the father and mother of Mrs. Alaska Young Norwicka. In 1881, a few months after Mrs. Ta- maree’s first marriage, she and her hushand started out as missionaries to the Chilkat district. They stopped at the site of Juneau. There were several log cabins and a general store. Gold had been discovered in silver Bow Basin and Gold Creek was being placer mined. She said 'she has two vivid pictures of Ju- neau; one of that cold windy day in early spring, with no comforts, just a little mining settlement in the woods; modern city with every modern con- NORTHERN LIGHT PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH SUNDAY SCHOOL well-taugh classes; Indian woman the other of today, a| 'vemence She mentioned the ex-’ cellent schools and lodges and the | many women’s clubs and the splen- did musicales she has attended| since coming to Juneau. | Lectures | Mrs, Tararee has lectured on Al- aska in New York City, Chicago,| and many other eastern cities, and| has spent some time in Elizabeth, New Jersey. | Mrs. Snow, whd needs no intro- | duction to Juneau, stood little and ‘dainty with a mind as clear as lcrystal and told of her harrowing| experience on the trail over the| |summit and many other dangers she has survived on her long tramp into the interior of Alaska. Mrs. Snow said she had told her story several times to Junedau audiences ,and that it will probably be in book 'form within a year. Many beautiful pieces of needle- work were in process of construc- tion. One, a 6500-piece quilt, called Grandmother’s Flower Garden, was just being completed by Mrs. Gertrude Lacker, mother of Mrs. Paui. The guests werc Mrs. Wag- goner, Mrs. Snow, Mrs. Norwicka, Mrs. Carmichael, Mrs. Lackey, Mrs. Paul and Mrs. Tamaree, the guest of honor. | > RUMMAGE SALE { | Trinity Guild, Wednesday, April 28.
