includes fisheries and mining.

LORANE - Residents of the .the ; stage Jack Where-
Lorane community read with in
terest several weeks ago of the
placing of the historical marker at
Elmira, and of the plan to later
mark other historical spots on the
old Territorial Road.
One hardly needs read a mark--
at fho nlH Hartwrieht house
three miles south of here; just a
glance at the nuge om r,-snapea
house, with its many twelve
paned windows, gables, and elab
orate cornice at the eaves, will
make one realize that here is a
landmark of many years standing.
Rnllt around 1R53. it took five
years to complete the original fif
teen rooms, from hand-split cedar,
put together with square-headed
nails. A nine-inch key was used
to lock the thick front door. Tne
L contained the kitchen, dining
roo"hi and two bedrooms, while in
tViA main hnilHin?. uDstairs and
down, was a living room on both
floors. The remaining rooms were
hotel bed rooms.

One famous person said to
have slept there, n route to San

later President of the U.S. No

has replaced the original L with
s newer one, and has lnsianea
modern conveniences throughout
the sturdy old home. The old barn
whinh hniicoH th stage COach

ago witn a modern nuuaing.
Mr. Addison recalls that some
time ajter he had purchased the
place, an elderly woman of per
haps seventy-five, alighting from a
n.atfnn rasra nnrimiclv Amund
and asked if the huge old black
walnut trees growing jusi norm
of the house ever produced any
nuts. .
In further conversation, she
stated she could remember when
her father, D. B. Cartwright, left
Illinois to come west, a neighbor
gave him some black walnut
sprouts to bring with him, and
she was, in passing, checking on
Crowe place on Cottage uruvo
road.
Next postmaster was Rufus
Robertson, who moved the office
to his store at the present site of
the B. C. Addispn store. Succeed
ing postmasters were D. G. Palm,
I. p. Inman, then Mrs. Delia
Jackson moved it to their store at
the top of the hill. When Roy V.
Foster became postmaster, around
1912, it was moved to the present
location, the I.O.O.F. building.
Harold M. Foster, present post
master, took office in 1940.
Another of the older buildings
of the community, the Lerane
Christian Church, built in 1859,
recently received a portion of a
"fai ri lift" with a shining new sign,
placed across the front of the
porch, its name thereon, and date
of establishment.

The nnstnfflpa hnilfieH here was
known as Cartwright P.O. and the
entire community, which now
comprises Lorane School District,
was known as Siuslaw Valley.
Within this territory were two
other postoffices; since the early
day settler had no rural daily mail
delivery he still had a postoffice
within a ride of perhaps six miles
for perhaps a weekly paper. The
other two postoffices were Amro,
which was six miles down the
Siuslaw River, west of the present
Lorane. Another was the Siuslaw
P.O. in the home of I. L. Simpson,
about seven miles north of Lorane,
on the present Everett Runk place.
This postoffice was established
around 1851.
Lorane postoffice as known
today, was established many
years later (no old-time resident
can recall the exact date) and
was thus named by Wm. N.
Crowe who had the postoffice in
