Hi,

Has any of you heard a news story today about an auction going on (in San Francisco, I think) of personal property that belonged to Gov. Isaac Stevens of Washington Territory / State?  A minimum bid of $60,000 is called for, I understand, but the contents of the auction lot weren't mentioned in the brief radio report I just heard.  Perhaps some of his writings are included, with the occasional bit of Chinook Jargon?
