The Heaun center Is now estab

which has stood for more titan half
a century on the Government Re

whfch during the past ten years was
Used for a time as u United States

Flort Wrangell. With the exception
of. the Custom House It is the only

comprised the garrison.
The garrison was abandoned in

In 1914 the building was repaired
by order of the District Court for
use as a court room and recording
office. * • • In 1921 the new jail
and recording office was built, but
the old building is still used at
times «s a court room. Judge Road
