with his brother, the late Charles H. Arland and by himself.
In CANADA
Twenty-five years ago he went to Garfield in Eastern Washington, where he engaged in farming for a couple of years. He then went to ALBERTA, CANADA, where he spent 12 years on a ranch. He and his family returned here about ten years ago.
Mr. Arland was the son of Richard and Sarah Goodwin Arland, and was born in Cross Plains, Wis., January 8, 1862. Both of his parents were born in ENGLAND and had come to this country as children.
Via PANAMA
When George was a year old the family were in New York City on its way to the pacific Coast. The trip from Wisconsin was made via the Great Lakes to New York, where they were awaiting ship for Panama on George Arland's first birthday. It required six weeks to sail to the isthmus, which was crossed overland, and from there another ship took them to Vallejo, Cal. They remained for some time at Napa, and then started north by ship from San Franciso. This required another six weeks.
Reaching Astoria they crossed Baker's bay in a severe storm to Ilwaco and came up the beach to Willapa Harbor, then Shoalwater bay. They crossed this to North Cove and came up the beach to Peterson's Point, the present site of Westport. There they made arrangements to have their goods hauled to Montesano by Mr. English and M. J. Luark.
They then came up the harbor and river, arriving at Scammons, South Montesano.
The family settled on land lying east of town, which they bought from Richard Pilkington and which wad the Arland home for 55 years.
Survivors
Mr. Arland was a member of the Woodmen of the World lodge and the Methodist church.
He was married May 10, 1891, in South Bend to Miss Blanche Bell, who survives him.
Also surviving are three children, Harold in Montana, Mrs. Beth McCallum, Yakima, and Mrs. Helen Anderson, Montesano; four grandchildren, Montesano, two sisters, Mrs. Etta B. Parcells, Los Angeles, Cal., and Mrs. Newton Gilkey, Centralia.
Called here by Mr. Arland's death were Mr. And Mrs. George H. Arland and daughter Marian of Garfield, Harold Arland and Morris McGlothlon of Cut Bank, Mont., and Mrs. Beth McCallum of Yakima, as well as a number of relatives from Western Washington.
