Residents
of
Terrace
have
a
dally
air
service
which
wafts
them
to
Vancouver
in
three
hours
Their
forebears
were
not
so
fortunate
The
first
Inhabitants
of
the
village
90
miles
east
of
Prince
Rupert
were
a
band
of
Halda
Indians
They
werent
Inter
Interested
¬
ested
In
leaving
In
fact
they
fought
like
demons
to
stay
The
Haldas
came
to
the
dis
district
¬
trict
up
the
valley
from
Kltl
mat
to
find
another
tribe
had
already
taken
squatters
rights
and
who
were
Inclined
to
regard
the
area
as
their
personal
property
This
didnt
deter
the
Haldas
Bitter
battles
were
fought
The
Intruders
eventually
won
and
established
a
village
at
the
Junc
Junction
¬
tion
of
the
Skeena
and
Kltsum
gallum
rivers
about
two
miles
from
present

Tom
Thornhlll
was
the
first
white
settler
He
arrived
in
1892
and
has
the
distinction
of
being
commemorated
with
perhaps
the
largest
memorial
ever
given
a
plonoor
A
dominant
C
500
foot
mountain
three
miles
cast
of
Terrace
bears
his
name
A
few
years
after
Thornhill
arrived
a
huge
rock
was
blast
blasted
¬
ed
from
the
main
channel
of
the
skeena
and
sternwheelers
started
freighting
upstream
to
Hazelton
The
districts
first
pre-emption
was
taken
up
In
1905
by
Harry
Frank
and
his
farm
was
soon
a
calling
point
for
the
sternwheelers
It
also
became
the
first
post
office
and
on
April
18
1909
was
singularly
honored
That
day
the
districts
first
white
child
was
born
to
Mrs
Frank
who
was
presented
with
a
silver
cup
for
her
splendid
maternal
accomplish
accomplishment

ment
About
1906
the
Grand
Trunk
Pacific
railway
was
being
built
from
Winnipeg
to
Prince
Ru
Rupert
¬
pert
and
although
It
spelled
doom
for
the
sternwheelers
it
gave
birth
to
Terrace
The
village
was
laid
out
four
years
later
on
a
farm
owned
by
one
George
Little
who
had
hiked
in
over
the
Kitimat
trail
In
1005
He
arrived
with
snow
shoes
a
rifle
and
two
days
food
and
after
working
on
gov
government
¬
ernment
survey
parties
took
out
a
pre
emption
The

location
engi
engineers
¬
neers
originally
intended
to
put
the
townsite
near
Kltsum
gallum
but
George
Little
took
a
hand
in
things
and
offered
them
free
right-of-way
and
all
the
land
they
required
for
a
station
and
freight
yards
They
accepted
and
as
a
gesture
to
him
named
the
new
centre
Littleton
Here
was
a
snag
There
was
already
a
Canadian
centre
call
called
¬
ed
Littleton
so
a
new
name
had
to
be

Someone
suggested
that
as
the
land
rose
in
a
series
of
natural
terraces
from
the
Skeena
niver
Terrace
might
be
an
appropriate
name
It
was
enthusiastically
adopted
Dy
1914
the
last
spike
had
been
driven
in
the
eastward
railway
extension
from
Prince
