TOWN WHERE TIME STOOD STILL
Before the settlers came to this peacefull little harbor, the Indians called their home here Scabock
The Seabeck mill wasn't the first to begin gnawing into the virgin forests of the Puget Sound country. In 1847 Michael Simmons had harnessed the power of Tumwater Falls at the southern tip of the Sound to a crude log cabin sawmill, and Henry Yesler's steam mill had been bringing coastwise lumber ships to the town of Seattle on Elliott Bay for three years, but Marshall Blinn's Maine-built machinery was the finest and most modern and no town on Puget Sound was more prosperous than Seabeck.
By 1877 Seabeck was a town of 400 population, boasting four saloons, two hotels, two stores, a church, a little red schoolhouse and a five-acre cemetery. An ornately carved wooden marker from that pioneer burial ground is preserved to tell its mute and concise tale of sudden death in boom town Seabeck, "Sacred to the memory of Hyram Bryant, age about 45 years, who was killed in a dispute on the 26th day of January, 1868."
This little bit of trivia came out of a small paper bound booklet published in 1958 by Gordon Newell for the Seabeck Christian Conference Center.
