ALBERT C. GOSS

VT. J F.rskine Co. Mr. Goss then
went to Unalaska and took charge
of the Alaska Commercial Com
pany’s station there. A little later
he purchased the company’s far
west stations on Atka and Attu Is
lands, of the Aleutian chan. At or
about this time he and Samuel Ap
plegate were associated together in
the blue fox farming industry. Lat
er Mr. Goss bought out the Apple ■
gate holdings, and has since oper
ated alone At the time of his death
he held under use permit three of
the Aleutian Islands for blue fox
ranching purposes and had a half
interest in two others. He was al
so engaged in trading and the buy
ing and selling of furs.
Albert Goss in brains, industry
and character was a great man.
And he possessed the imagination,
the vision, of all pioneers; a vision
that could see in this “naked coun
try” of Alaska, what the early
pioneers saw in the great west. He
was an Alaskan of Alaskans. lie
had no desire to live elsewhere. He
-yas happy in his life and his work.
And the spice and tang of the ad
ventures of his occupation, and
danger of confronting the storms
nnd darkness and wild waters, ap
pealed compellingly to the blood
>f this man whose Yankee ances
tors had helped to make the Amer
ican clipper ships the sovereigns of
the sea.
In his personal relations Albert
Goss was the most considerate of
men. He was generous and hospi

table almost to a fault. His door
always stood wide open to his
friends, and the number of his
friends was legion. His name for
many years has been better known
:and more highly honored than
that of any other in Southwestern
Alaska, and no one in distress was
so poor or humble that this joyous
hearted man could not find time to
rended such assistance as was
within his power. Fortune was not
particularly kind to him. While he
left a considerable estate, he met
with many misadventures, but he
met them smilingly. None of the
weaknesses of self-pity came near
nis head or his heart. One by one
the oldtimers are passing. But
there are few whose passage over
fhe great divide will bring grief to
so many hearts as that of Albert
