When tlin Boston Ian, tlio Becomi ship that ever crossed In over tho Umpqua bar, was wreck ed, the cargo was put ashore at tho lto of tho present city of Gardlnor. Snelllng, who hailed from lioston and wag n nephew of Mr. Gardiner, the owner of tho cargo, hud tho goods rescued from tho ship tnken up to Scottsburg. Forming Ipnrt of tho cargo was a zinc house. This Yankeo contrlvanco looked like an aristocrat! wncn placed alongside tho moro plo blan log Iioubcb of tho other settlors at Scottsburg. ScottsburK was founded by Cap tain Levi Scott, a pioneer of 184-1, who camo from Burlington, Iowa, but who was born in Illinois, In 184G, Jesso nnd Lindsoy Apple Kate and about a dozen othors, ex plored tho Umpqua Valley and went on into tho Klamath country In search of a road across tho mountains. Tho captain of tho expedition was Cap tain Levi Scott, then 48 years of ago. Captain Scott was so much pleased with tho country that two years later, In tho spring of 1848, ho moved from the Willamette, valley, taking up a claim on Elk Creek, three miles from loncallu, In iwhat was afterwards known ns Scott's Valley. Hi3 two sons, Will and John, settled In Yon calla Valley not far distant . Two pars later Captain Scott went down Into tho valley of tho Umpqua and laid out the town of Scottsburg at the head of navigation on tho Ump fl.ua River, twenty-six miles from Its mouth. Shortly after Captain Scott had put up his cabin, James McTavIsh brought In a stock of goods and put up a can vas store, the canvas being the sails of the Dostonlan, wrecked near the mouth of tho Umpqua. Snelling's zinc store camo next. Dy 1852 there were fifteen stores located there and Scottsburg was the metropolis of Southern Oregon and the supply point for a wide stretch of country. John Heddon Is the sur vivor of this goodly company. He vas born in Scottsburg fifty-seven years ago and has lived there all his Flocd wns president and Jnmcs Wat son wns secretary. A steamer cost ing $8000 wns built and tho govern ment appropriated $22, COO to aid navigation, 114,000 was. spent for blasting out rocks In tho channel. The Enterprise mndo an attempt to go to IlosohiirK. but was unsuccessful, so tho government had to chargo its 122,000 oxpendlturo to profit and loss. Scottsburg became tho county seat of Umpqua county. Tho founding of Crescent City In 1852 took away from Scottsburg tho trade of northern Cnl iropiln and grndually tho city began to wane.
