Nearly B0 years bro Enoch Meeker, who had a rancli in the northern part of Multnomah county, discovered that a spring on lils place had a decidedly salty taste. Mr. Meeker deepened tho well and boiled down some of the water, securing a fair quality of salt. The salt, however. had a slightly bitter taste so he gave up the idea- of the manufacture of salt. Henry C. Victor had heard of this spring and in the spring of -1867 he leased not only the spring but the ranch and the adjonlng land and started the manufacture of salt. The output of salt soon amounted to two tons a day. It was used for salting butter and for curing nam, bacon and other meats. A sample of Multnomah county salt was sent 'to the Paris Exposition where it received favorable mention. The manu facture of salt, however, did .not prove a financial success and Mr. Victor gave it UP. ;:.' .:'.', ' : Henry C. Victor's life was an adven turous one. He was born on, October 11, 1828, in Pennsylvania. While atlll a boy lie went to Sandusky, Ohio, and later went to Nor walk where he secured art excellent education, talcing up the study of naval engineering. - -At the time when Perry was outfitting to go to Japan, Victor entered the Unit ed States naval service... He was a si signed to the San Jacinto and during the opium war which was forced on China, by England, ?his vessel was In Chinese waters looking put for Amer ican interests. . : During the capture of the .Barriers Forts in which he took part, he became acquainted with Sir John Bowering, be tween whom and himself there sprang up a warm friendship which existed throughout their lives. - i After spending ' three ' years in the orient he returned re the United States. He was sent to Africa to protect AmeYi can Interests there. It so happened that most -of - the officers aboard the . war ship were southerners, and. in a discus sion rcl.itho to tl:n fxtciision of tliej Hlave ti;il'fl', to which ho was hittcl'ly opposed, oiid of the officers tnal,a very ; insulting remark to hiin. Ills Immedi ate response was a blow In the face of the officer. For this -he was mmponded and sent back to tho United States. Some time 'thereafter the Civil war began and ho was reinstated and served with the Union fleet, being in the block ading squadron More Charleston.' . The Princess Ttoyal war captured and he was put in charge of this prize and took It to Philadelphia in February, 1863. . On account of tho serious situation in Mexico, the vessel upon w;hlcTi he was an officer was ordered to.Paciflo waters, In patrolling the Mexican coast the bad water which they were com pelled to use brought on a return Of his African fever and he resigned from the service. . - ' 1 He came to Oregon in 1864. He was a passenger aboard the steamer Pacific) which foundered in November, 1875, and was lost with the other passengers. Ills death threw His wife, Mrs. Frn ces Fuller Victor, upon her own re sources. For years she lived. at .Salem. She was the author of several works on Oregon and was also one of 'the ed itors of Bancroft's Pacific Coat History, her wtfrk dealing particularly with Ore gon 'and Washington.'?'" '-.v,:?1 .
