Lands for the landless 1886
Riley advertises some of his land for sale: "THE SUBSCRIBER. LIVING ON Eagle Harbor, nine miles weat of the city of Seattle, will sell a portion of his homestead in lots of 5, 10 or 20 acres each, at the low rate of $30 per acre, said land has been logged off and burned off until it is quite easily cleared." Likely buyers would be immigrants to Port Blakely seeking work in the Hall brothers saw mill and shipyard.
