ANDERSON, Gus (d. 1901)
Gus Anderson, a logger, was found dead in his room over the Mint saloon last evening at 8 o'clock by the porter who has charge of the rooms. The body was lying in a reclining position on the bed and the man had evidently died without a struggle. He had been bleeding at the mouth but that was probably caused by the rush of blood to the head. Dr. Kirkpatrick, the city health officer, was called and after an examination decided that the man had died of heart disease, which opinion was acquiesced in by Coroner Warinner when he arrived. Anderson was a native of Sweden. He was about 40 years of age and nearly six feet in height. He had been employed on the construction of the B. B. & E. extension around the lake, but quit there on Thursday and came into the city. He expected to go to work for Contractor Lind tomorrow. The deceased leaved two brothers who are working on the steamship City of Seattle.

The Blaine Journal
Tuesday, September 18, 1894:
Young NELSON, of Mountain View, is under the care of Dr. VANZANDT, of Whatcom, for terrible bruises and perhaps internal injuries received at the hands of Charles LIND at Birch Bay.
I am thinking this is not our Charles E. Lind as the newspapers have been very consistent about using his middle initial.

PLEASANT VALLEY NEWS
After spending 18 months in the county jail, convicted of embezzlement, H. St. John DIX was on Saturday morning allowed to walk out on a bond of $5,000. Mrs. St. John has been indefatigable in her work to release her husband and has worked under the most trying circumstances, circumstances that would have made any woman who did not believe in her husband's innocence give up the fight. It is reported that St. John will furnish some startling evidence to prove that he was not as guilty as he seems to be and that he will convict others engaged in the late Scandinavian bank.
The bondsmen are:
T. W. GILLETTE, $500; Charles E. BELL, $500; Charles E. LIND, $500; Thomas S. DAHLQUIST and A. G. DAHLQUIST, his wife, $500; Mrs. Freda STRANDELL, $500; Michael EARLES, $250; A. G. WICKMAN, $250; Wm. COX, $250; Simon McLEOD, $250; George SPEIRS, $250; P. L. HEGG, $250; Wm. COX, $200; D. H. DeCAN, $200; E. A. BERENS, $100; W. D. KIRKPATRICK, $100; Agnes Barnes ONFLROY, $100; Charles S.
