Jason Lee's Diary On This Day In Oregon

"Arrived at Fort Vancouver at 3 o'clock, found the governor and other gentlemen connected with the fort on shore awaiting our arrival, and conducted us to the fort and gave us food, which was very acceptable, as we had eaten our last for breakfast...Our baggage was brought and put into a spacious room without consulting us and the room assigned for our use...The dinner was good and served in as good style as any gentleman's house in the east...After dinner took a turn in the garden and was astonished to find it in such a high state of cultivation."
