1870réf. 63746Portland OR: Harris & Holman 1870. 8vo. 624 pp. Engraved frontisp. of Astoria in 1811. Black pebbled publisher’s cloth gilt lettering on spine minor edgewear minor bumping to foot of spine slight fraying at a couple corners still a VG unsophisticated copy. First edition of this first-hand account of the settling of the Oregon Country by one of the original pioneers. He describes the Hudson's Bay Company the Fur Trade Mountain Men the early conflicts with the Pacific Northwest Indians and more. William H. Gray 1810-1889 was a young cabinet maker carpenter and house-joiner largely self-educated who had been inspired by the religious fervor of the Second Great Awakening to become a missionary and sought permission from the ABCFM American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions to proselytize amongst the Pacific Northwest Indigenous Peoples and originally was only hired as carpenter and mechanic to travel with Dr. Marcus & Narcissa Whitman Henry & Eliza Spalding and coordinated with Pierre Pambrun the French-Canadian factor at the Hudson’s Bay Co. Fort Walla Walla in 1836. Initially assigned to Lapwai by Dr. Whitman to work under Mr. Spalding Gray abruptly left for the East in 1837 to marry. His betrothed declined to become the third Euro-caucasian white woman in the “wilderness” but he subsequently met and married one Mary Augusta Dix 1810-1881 in 6 days even managing to attend medical college before securing an Associate Missionary certificate from the ABCFM and returned to Waiilatpu with his new wife and additional missionary reinforcements including Elkanah & Mary Walker and Asa Bowen & Sarah Smith along with Cornelius Rogers. Of particular interest within this history is that very little of Gray’s recently discovered unknown daily manuscript 1840-1842 diary was incorporated into this work. Presumably Gray had mislaid the MS or left behind in one of the family properties as it was 30 years later transcribed by daughter Caroline Kamm 1840-1932 noted socialite and philanthropist in Portland and is now held by the University of Washington Special Collections Allen Library.
