Hmmmmmmmm, Now you have my interest. Milo Heman Lee.....now is that a
brother of M.J. Lee who also lived in Canby? The ferry that was named after
him, crosses the Willamette river from Canby to the farms on the other side.
I remember M.J. Lee as he road his bicycle around town carrying his needs
from the store to home in a gunnysack.
