FIRST AUTO IN iVEST VAN. Editor West Van. News, You have had some mention of "the firs auto i» )Vest Van- ruuver." I woulcl like to say that I vemember that in the year 1909 John Larson had to get out a team to pull an auto out of the ditch at DIavv's Hill (D. L. 555). I believe, though, that AIv. Thompson was the first resident c f West Vancouver to own a car and to bring it here. Mr. Irwin who used to come from North Vancouver drove an auto often before that though. When I divas hauling lumber to build my house at 16th and Es- quimalt, 20 years ago, I met autos coming here but I don' know ivho owned them. JOHiV HARTE.
