Old Timer Recalls
50 Year Ago Xmas
SANDY, Dec. 26 While enjoying
the Christmas time of 1921 Paul
Dunn's memory drifted back to the
holidays of 50 years ago before he lo
cated in the Sandy country, and he
told the story of the "Oregon Baby"
which will be recalled by many an old
timer.
The "baby" was only a hog
and was raffled off by the Odd Fellow
j lodge about Xmas time, 1S71, for the
benefit of a widow and her children
that lived on the old slough road, now
the Sandy boulevard.
"The tickets were sold at $1.00 each
and the "baby" was won by Henry
Garling, who was a partner of Pete
Cline and one had a butcher shop at
First and Morrison and the other at
First and Alder where the station is
now located," said Mr.. Dunn.. "Big
foot Kellar," another butcher bought
50 tickets and was much beat when
he lost the desired prize-
"There was much interest and so
much strife about the winning of the
bog that Cline and Garling hired the
six handsomest white horses in Port
land, decorated them and the big
dray with evergreens and bunting and
paraded up and down the streets to
"show iff" for the "baby." Portland
it that time was about small enough
fi-r tilt; .v, i Je town to fall in with any
unusual proceeding and crowds gath
ered and there was much merriment
over the baby and the rivalry of the
( i.tf l.ors and others that failed to win
Vc rafpii.
'"i'he process-ion went out on the
liiacMilunifxed road to the slaug ii'
house, two miles south of town on the
old toll road which was at that time
the only real drive that Portland had.
Dunn was with the procession and
helped to butcher the hog and get it
on the block in Cline's shop where it
sold at 50 cents per pound.
"It was claimed that the "Oregon
Baby" was the biggest hog ever bue
cbered in Portland up to that time."
