Capt. Mellick is now postmaster

“I want to be one of the first 'o
give you1 credit for the new lignts
at Sand Point and Range Island
which we know were brought about
by your insistent demands”, writes
one captain to the other. “I want
to say also that many of the old
timers hereabouts express reg -et
that they do not see your jovial face
as in the old days of your regulai
trips to our section.”
“Now then, this man Capt. Mellick
is giving me too much credit,’” said
Capt. Johansen. “It is tru'e that I
have been agitating for batter beacon
service to the Westward ever since
I have sailed those waters, but w'e
are now getting real action thm
Capt. Walter C. Dibrell, superintend
ent of the Alaska lighthouse service,
16th District, and Capt. John W.
Lead better of the lighthouse tender
Cedar.
“These men are doing all that is
humanly possible to light up the
more important capes and points
alcng the lanes of Westward navi
gation, doing all that they can with
the funds that are grudgingly vouch
safed them. They are picking out
most stragetic spots for the first
lights, hoping that additional funds
will be granted for other lights
where needs exist. I might add that
another light has just been installed
at Seal Cape and I want^to go em
phatically on l'ecord as thanking
Capt. Dibrell and Leadbetter fcr
what has already been accomplish
ed. I am sure also that the resi
dent population and the mariners to
the Westward are extermely grateful
for the efforts made in their behalf.
We Alaskans are pathetically grate
ful for the small favors -we receive,
[but the moral is that if we keep
hammering away we will eventually
get somewhere.”
