1913
-- Trail Bay waterfront and Robert Straight Camp. Robert Straight, father
of Sun columnist Lee Straight, was an ardent fisherman, a Vancouver school
teacher who devised the Junior High School system and later a senior school
inspector. Son Lee was a friend of Jim Steele (Helen Dawe's brother-in-law).
The camp is at the west end of the Boulevard near Ocean Avenue. In 1913
Ada Dawe walked this trail from her father's house on Lot 7, Block 1,
DL 1331 to the store and post office then located on the east side of
Wharf Road next to the Reserve. She called the route 'Ye Trail of Lantern
and Milk Pail.'
