‘Captain Sutherland Relires

In 1054 the Elco 11 was retired
and “Cap” Sutherland became mas-
ter of the Celco (named after the

Rupert) and the log-tower Keetow
which .was put into service here
from the Fraser river.

Celgar's Iarge.cabin cruiser, the
Allce Lynne, also saw’ Captain Su-
theriand at her wheel as Celgar of-
ficlals travelied up and down the
Arrow Lakes.

In looking back over his many,
years on tho lakes, Captain Suther-
land recalls that “as long as the
mills were going a fellow’s cheque
was good.”

Be said that in 1916 there was

@ Secar ferry which charged $1 a
ise after 6 p.m, The ferry opeta-

jhe recalls, closed the ferry
cond at lunch time and went home
to eat, finiil one day “some govern-
ment man came mene and put o
stop to it,” :

The closest accident Captain
Sutherland had in all his years on
the lake was the time he cut the
main cable on the Castlegar ferry.
He was coming down the lake with
a heavily-loaded barge, tooted his
whistle, the ferry didn’t stop, and
he cut the main cable.

If he had tried to back the
tug up, he said, the barge would
have come down sideways into the
ferry. After the cable was cut he
nosed his tug up against the ferry
and pushed it to shore,

Nothing ever came of the in-
cident. The department of highways
tried’ to get the price of a new
eable from the Waldie Sawmill but
“Cap” Sutherland “showed “em the
rules of the road. I’d done my part.”
