Those who were carefuland provident in the matter of their earnings were enabled to and diddeposit some portion each year of the same with the Alaska CommercialCompany or in the banks of San Francisco. The comjDany furnished to each native family, without charge, a com-fortable frame dwelling, employed a physi{;ian on each island, and sup-plied medicines and medical attendance gratuitously. It may be said,perhaps, that it was plainly in the interest of the company to faithfullycarry out all of its obligations designated or implied by the terms of itslease. Such was undoubtedly the fact, but, in justice to the lessees,it should be stated that they always interi)reted their contracts in amost liberal spirit, and in many ways exceeded their obligations as faras their treatment of the native people was concerned.
