A ball celebrating Washington's Birthday was given this evening in 1846 by Captain H.M. Knighton and Lady at Oregon City. The celebration postponed until this date because the 22nd was a Sabbath, was well attended by Oregon settlers and officers from H.M.S. Modeste. Everything reportedly went smoothly as "evidence of intoxication was happily absent."
