Notes:

From the “Los Angeles Times” 30 Apr 2015:

Adams' works go to Huntington

The Huntington Library, Art Collections and Botanical Gardens in San Marino has acquired a series of limited-edition Ansel Adams photographic works seven portfolios containing 90 images from throughout his career, representing what he once described as "an excellent cross section of my work."

The California photographer helped to define 20th century landscape photography with his elegant black-and-white portraits of the American West: the geologic face of Yosemite's Half Dome, the stark beauty of his New Mexican churches, the cotton-y forms of billowing clouds floating over scrub-covered hills.

The portfolios were a gift of George Melvin Byrne and Barbara S. Barrett-Byrne. George Byrne, a doctor and amateur photographer, had acquired the portfolios from Adams after becoming acquainted with the artist via one of his photography workshops in Yosemite. Huntington photography curator Jennifer Watts reports that the portfolios were in storage for decades.

Particularly striking are L.A.-area images, such as an image of a cemetery angel surrounded by oil derricks in Long Beach a surreal image of industry and beauty.

Separately, the Huntington announced it also had acquired two 1936 paintings, "Burlesque" by Milton Avery and "Irises (The Sentinels)" by Helen Lundeberg, as well as a sculpture by Sargent Claude Johnson.

• Obituary: From the front page the Santa Cruz Evening News, 29 Dec 1923: Death of George G Byrne Shocks Whole City; Will Be Missed in Business and Social Life of Community A great shock to this community is the sudden death last night of George Grifftng Byrne. No citizen could have seemed more sure of a serene old age, still a long way off. He had lived the useful, moderate, sane life which is the best insurance. But the reaper took him in the twinkling of an eye. He was sitting, about 8 o'clock, with his family, when his heart stopped, and he passed from this life without a struggle. Mr. Byrne was fifty-nine years of age, a native of Michigan, and son of George Griffing Byrne and his wife Henrietta, both of prominent Jackson families. He was in the hardware business even in the early days, and came to Santa Cruz from Jackson thirty-four years ago, to be with his uncle, the late C. B. Byrne, in the firm of Heath and Byrne. The next year he married Miss Helen Graves, between whom and himself there has ever since been perfect harmony. They have brought up a family of whom any one would be proud; have given them all the best education to be had, all who are old enough being now college graduates, and the younger ones at sohool. Twenty-five years ago he, with bis brother Walter, bought out Heath & Byrne, and have made Byrne Bros, a synonym for dependability and progressiveness through a large territory. It is now a large business. Mr. Byrne was interested in civic improvement, was a Mason, a faithful and helpful member of the Congregational church over a period of many years, and, to his death; and a charter member of the Y. M. C. A. here. He was domestic in taste, and was more happy at home than anywhere else. But he was a genial friend and acquaintance, with a large circle of friends. He was a sterling citizen, an example to all who knew him, in his unostentatious way of meeting the problems and duties of life. He leaves a wife, Mrs. Helen Byrne, and children as follows: Walter G., an architect of Los Angeles; Mrs. Harriet Olmstead of Los Angeles; George G., who is connected with the store In Santa Cruz; Gertrude, who after graduating from the University of California, is now taking a course in nursing in a San Francisco hospital; Helen, a teacher: at Covina; Carleton, a student at Stanford university, and, Howard at home. There are two brothers, Robert E. of Florida and Walter C. of this: city, and three sisters, Clara of San Jose, Susan of the faculty of the California Teachers College at San Jose, and Josephine, an instructor in the Drexel school near Palo Alto.

A carpenter by trade, working on his own, or as an employee of the Jackson penitentiary. When my daughter, Zoe, was born in 1988, my grandparents offered me a crib that had been made by George G Byrne. It was lovely, but looked terrible by comparison with modern cribs (e.g. slats that were a perfect fit for catching a baby’s head), so I declined. While I never would have used it, I regret not having a sample of his handiwork.

From the Morning Astorian, 2 Nov 1890:

Caught On Fire Out At Sea

The Steamer "Michigan" Arrives in Port with a Hot Cargo

A Lively Race for the River

Considerable excitement was created in this city early yesterday morning when a dispatch was received from Ft Canby announcing that the steam schooner Michigan was coming in on fire. E. A. Noyes, agent of the Union Pacific Company which owns the vessel, at once dispatched tug boats to meet the incoming steamer. The boats picked the distressed vessel up at the mouth of the river, but Captain S. F. Graves, who was in command of the Michigan, said that all he required was for the tugs to stand by. He reported that his vessel was afire in the forehold and had been burning for several hours. He had the hatches all battened down and the fire smothered in such away that he could make port and turn her over to the agents and underwriters. The tugs stood by and escorted the vessel up the river.

The scene was an exciting one. Wild reportsliad proceeded the arrival of the Michigan, and hundreds flocked to the wharves to see -the burning vessel come up. The crowd was disappointed for save for puffs of smoke issuing from the seams at the bow, through the forward hatch and through the dead light holes of the freight deck, no fire was visible.

The vessel came up the river at full speed, and by 12 o'clock had a line ashore at the Union Pacific dock. The few passengers on board were landed, and then the underwriters' agent, Chief Stockton of the fire department, and others, together with the Union Pacific representatives, went on board. A consultation followed, and the result was that it was decided to scuttle the vessel forward, or rather to sink her by the bow and thus smother the flames. Lines were run out, and with the aid of a tug the vessel was Warped around into a position between the west end of the Union Pacific wharf and the old sturgeon wharf.

No. 1 and No. 2 engines were called out, but considerable delay was occasioned by the fact that the burning vessel was stuck in the mud, and the tugs made an effort to tow her off. This, it was found, could not be done, so orders were given and two lines of hose from each engine were put on board and the work of flooding the steamer commenced.

The hose was put down through the hatch and as the first stream of water struck the fire, a mass of thick black smoke accompanied by a strong odor of burning fish was wafted to the wharf. Throughout the afternoon the engines pumped water into the hold.

It was a veritable volcano. The fire was confined among 500 barrels of lime and 2,300 cases of salmon, with a lot of coal on one side to help it out The combined efforts- of the local engine companies told on the fire after several hours and at 7 o'clock last evening the fire was out.

The damage could not be estimated last night but it will amount to probably 15,000. The vessel is considerably damaged, and of the cargo, the 2,300 cases of salmon, which belonged to Morgan & Sherman, are almost a total loss. The fish was insured for its full value, about $9,000. The lime, to which the origin of the fire is attributed, is also a total loss, but outside of this and the damage to the ship the loss is comparatively small.

Captain Graves, master of the Michigan, stated that the fire was discovered about 2 o'clock yesterday morning when the vessel was about fifty miles off the entrance to Gray's Harbor. The hatches were at once battened down and all the ventilators turned. It was intended to kill the fire at once and the entire crew were summoned. The first attempt showed that this would be impossible, with the appliances at hand so the hatches were battened down again, the course laid direct for the Columbia river and the engineer told to open her wide. This was done, and the little steamer came along at a rate of speed she had seldom attained. The few passeugers were somewhat "frightened but they put their trust in Captain Graves and he saw them through. At first they insisted on the vessel being beached at once, but the skipper preferred to stay by his ship and get her into a place where if it was necessary to scuttle her he could find her again. Seeing he was determined, the passengers withdrew their objections, and the Michigan arrived here as state.

With the exception of the salmon, the lime and other cargo is destined to Portland.
