Five year anniversary of Hoskinson homestead at Eagle Harbor/Port Blakely 1882
Riley gives brief update on his homestead to The Seattle Post Intelligencer: "Our fruit trees, now five years old, are loaded with fruit; we have all the apples, plums, prunes and cherries we can use, and quite a lot of nice pears. Our strawberry crop was three hundred and thirty-two gallons, sold for $175, all in hard money. Last year our one hundred hens netted as $188; this year they are doing equally as well."
