“ Unlike her father, Sealth, who remained quietly on the reservation allotted to him, Angeline persisted in living near the white people in Seattle. For a long time in her old age she lived in a little shack on the water front with Joe Foster, her grandson. She was a Catholic, and a good woman according to her light. She worked for white people until too old, and was then provided for by the pioneers.

“ The aim of the school, as set forth in the catalogue, is "to teach pupils how to study, to help them to gain a mastery over self, and to develop character."

The school building, located at the corner of Sixth and Main streets, Portland, Oregon, has recently been enlarged to accommodate the largely increased attendance. ”
