Frank Mitzemberg was the fer- ryman who would take the mall bag across the river to the post of- fice at Skinner’s Place, And now just a bit on the vil- lage of Kilselas, located seven Miles east of Terrace, The name Kitselas means ‘*people of the canyon”? because that’s where they lived. The ramparts of Kitselas can- yon, like a natural fortress, gave them safety from unfriendly tribes, From the beginning, the canyon was the most important site on, the Skeena River. The Kitselas band of the Tsim- shian who lived there used the canyon for centuries to control all trade on the river. By 1910, Kitselas was in full swing. There was the Kitselas Con- tracting and Building Company, the Lu Bakery, the OK Mountain Restaurant, ihe Big Canyon Hotel, Big Canyon Weekly, W.B, Bateman’s Tobacco and Soft Drinks, the Bornite Mountain Mining Company, J.E. Bennett Agent, Joseph E. McEwen, Merry Field General Store, Riverside Hotel, the Hudson Bay Company, Dr. Traynor M.D. as well as the watehouse of Foley, Welch and Stewart. This was the latgest white settlement between Port Essing- ton and Hazelton. One of the frequent visilors to Kitselas at this time, who did nol share the optimism of the local residents, was George Little. Although Kitselas appeared to be a fine site for a town, he said his pre-emption downriver was a better place. Litile, of course, owned the land that would become the loca- tion of present downtown Terrace and he would become known as the founder of Terrace. The cause of the seeds for its downfall. When the railway was com- plete, river boal transportation — which was the lifeblood of Kit- sclas — came to an end. Many native people moved © away to Port Essington, Porl Simpson and Meilakaila. And so the whites moved to other settlemnents. The wewspaper moved to Hazeiton, the storekecpers to Pa- cific and Hazelton, and miners to Usk. ; The river ate into the banks, flood obliterated the townsite and the forest reclaimed the cleared land, Kilselas had been a town of op- portunists and as the . op- portunities moved to — other centres, So did they, Wien. the attendance dropped too low at the little schoolhouse in Kitselas, Miss. Bailey joined them, The school was closed - in 1944, She went on to teach al the can- nery in Port: Edward and -now lives retired in Prince Rupert, The school she taught atin Kit- ° selas was the second ‘one thers — the first one had burnt down in a. fire. Thanks to Isabelle McKee for some info and pictures, She was a Student of Miss Bailey. Of course thanks to Mrs. Timms in Prince Rupert for all her information, Support The aa April Cancer 714] Al Big Altsumkalum Sisterhood Parents Coalition 2 Terrace 3 4 Tertace Cadel Sac, 6 Brothers 7 se Adee at Minor Kermode Peaks Nisga'a Tribal insmen Clu of Education Hockey Friendship | Gymnastics Tetrace Councl-Terrace Shamas in Tettace Association Society Club Anti-Poverty Mountain Al Terrace Art 8 1 0 11 | 2 ne 1 canadian 1 Oa er seiian Patenis Gealtion Terrace k d Terrace pave Paraplegic fevace or the Minor ermade Community Y Ad t j | ‘ /outh Soscer of Educatien Hockey Friendship | Volunteer Terrate Nisga'a Tribal |—Torace Figure in Tarraca Association Society Bureau Anti-Poverty | Council- Terrace Skating Oider of Sk, Valle 1 5 1 6 1 t 1 Bac 1 Royal 20 Canadian 21 Runners, Parents Coalition Terrace Kermode Peaks Purple Paraplegic | can, Patents tor Advancement Hockey Friendship Gymnastics ’ Tarvace Nisga'a Tribal Taace Figure in Tenvace Association Society Club Anti-Poverty Councll-Terrace Skating Order of .
