Tom Bradley Finds
77-Year-0ld Memo
From Uncle's Shop
When City Councilman
Thomas G. Bradley was rum
maging through Frank Zell's
curiosity shop in Jacksonville
the other day, he notice 1 a
small piece of paper tacked up
on a window. Upon examination
he discovered that it was a bill
of goods made out on Oct. 28,
1864, by his uncle, A. E. Paine,
who then owned the Yreka
Bakery at Yreka, Cal.
The statement, written In a
hand still easily read, was for
198 pounds of soda crackers at
12Va cents a pound, or total
of $24.30. The crackers were
delivered to H. Heln.s at his
store in Jacksonville, the Helms
being a pioneer family in south
ern Oregon. Mr. Bradley found
the statement on October 27,
almost exactly 77 years to the
day after it had been made out
by his uncle, he related today
He bought the curio and plans
to send it to his uncle's son,
Frank Paine, of San Francisco.
In handwriting over Mr.
Paine's signature the statement
said: t
"We send today per Mr. Por
ter two boxes of crackers. Will
send another box to fill your
order the first of next week."
In a corner of the letterhead
was printed the information:
"Soda crackers, sugar crack
ers, Boston crackers, butter
crackers, ginger snaps, brown
bread, pies, cakes, etc., kept
l constantly on hand."
