| Stella Erland (schooner) | Another incident typical of gold rush navigation was the case of the little schooner Stella Erland, Seattle for Copper River. Between Middleton Island and Prince William Sound she fell in with the steam schooner Albion, Portland for Valdez with 98 passengers. The Albion's master, no doubt an expert in the dog hole navigation of the Redwood coast, had not the slightest idea where he was. The pilot, who claimed to be an expert Alaska navigator, was equally bewildered. The skipper of the Erland, who had been there before, agreed to pilot the steamer in return for a tow for his schooner, the two vessels thus reaching their destination safely, and the Stella Erland more rapidly than her crew had expected her to.
