Last week a CCC crew working in An- goon dug up what appears to be a high explosive siell, or at least the biggest part of one, and today it w being carefully examined in the U. S Forest Service office here. The theory was advanced that it might be one of the shells fired by the Waschusetts on that historic oc- casion back in 1881. The legend is that the villagers of Angoon had seized a couple of white trappers and were holding them be- cause it was claimed a white man action had resulted in the death of their medicine man. Word was sent to Sitka and the Waschsetts raced to the scene. A squad of marines went ashore and released the twc trappers and later orders were is- sued to the Chief of the village to decamp and take his wrought up tribesmen with him. He failed to follow out instructions with the re-* sult that the gunboat dropped a few shells about town with, it is reported. effective results, .o Try The Empire classifieds results. - D TONSILECTOMY Joe Reidi, Jr, of Douglas, had his tonsils removed this morning at the Juneau Medical and Surgical Clinic.
