1889, Washington Territory. Stock certificate for 1 Share. Black. Issued to S. Wilkeson, Jr. and signed by him on verso. Samuel Wilkeson Jr., took interest in the transcontinental project. He had been a journalist for many years for New York City newspapers, including a stint as a war correspondent during the Civil War. He later published newspapers in Buffalo and Albany, New York and then became secretary to the board of the Northern Pacific Railroad in 1869.
