Brotchie, Capts. Scarborough, Sangster, Mouat and others, all of whom passedaway long since, but have left their names behind them. We believewe are correct in saying that not a single person who came out inthe _Beaver_ in 1835 is now alive; and nearly all the Company'sofficers, with a few exceptions, who received her on her arrival atColumbia River, are gone, too.
[Portrait: Captain "Willie" Mitchell. ] "Yesterday, through the courtesy of Capt. Rudlin (one of her newowners and future commander...) we visited the old ship. On board we metthe venerable Captain William Mitchell, who has had charge of thevessel for some years. He was busily engaged in packing his clothesinto chests preparatory to going ashore. He remembers well the_Beaver_ in her early days. Every room, every plank possesseshistoric interest to him. He pointed out the Captain's room.
