When Joseph Caples took up his donation land claim in 1846, the surrounding area was inha- bited only by Indians, the tnbal leader being Chief Kusnihi. Many utensils such as ston? bowls, pestles, and weights for <i<'hor- ing their nets are still in exis tence, but are becoming rarer as time goes on. After the proper- ty was divided between Joseph Caples two sons and one daugh- ters in 1869, it was plotted and named by them. Columbia City. It is interesting to note that the first schoolhouse known as the Academy was built in 1872. This was built by a private venture by Dr. C. J. Caples and his sister, Mrs. J. L. Maxwell, since there was little prqvision for public schools in thos? early days. The little schoolhouse where the Society met was built and used after the Academy was discon tinued. Another interesting building remembered by early settlers was a large hotel with 52 rooms, which was built on the water front in 1883. This was later d:smantled and floated down the Columbia in sections to Kelso, Two Complete Eighth Grade WANTED HIGHEST cash prices paid for cream and eggs at your door— picked up once or twice weekly— call or write Forest Grove Cream ery, Forest Grove, Oregon..
