      Word has been received here of the death of Charles Sumner McDuffee, 72, former Portland resident, at his home in Seattle lastweek. Mr. McDuffee was well known as an old time Alaskan "sourdough" who startled the north with his experiments with goats for freighting in the arctic in lieu of husky dogs.
       He crossed the continent on the first train running from Boston to San Francisco, and was at one time publisher of the Western Trail magazine in Seattle. While in Portland, he was a prominent member of the St. Stephens Pro-cathedral and of St. David’s church. Surviving are his widow, Mrs. Adelia Lord McDuffee, and several sons and daughters. One son, Vere McDuffee, is connected with the Fleischner-Mayer company of Portland.
