Fred Lockley, the man who writes up personal biography and pioneer his tory for the Portland Journal, was in the city last Friday, accompanied by Mrs. Lockley. Fred has interviewed more people and told more interest­ ing stories of Oregonians and has giv­ en mere of pioneer history than any­ one, perhaps, since the day* of Fran­ ces Fuller Victor and Junius Henry Browne. His interviews with Oregon people are especially valuable since they contain so much of previously unwritten history that has escaped the eye of the historian. The writer first knew Fred when he was a mail carrier in Salem. Later worked on the Salem Journal and later became identified with the cific Monthly magazine. After the lat ter went out of existence, Fred be­ came a writer for the Portland Jour- nal, and for many­ years has been its free lance special writer going and j coming when and where he pleased but always producing something for the people to read. His letters in the Journal are a daily contribution and thousands of persons each evening look fur Lockley's story which never fails to appear on the editorial page of his paper. Mr. Lockley and wife are both strong for the Tillamook beaches, and have many friends in all the towns and resorts along this part of the Oregon coast and as Mr. Ixick ley always has something nice to say of Tillamook and the other outlying communities that fact no doubt adds to his popularity as a writer in this ■ection of the state.
