For the housebound everywhere, I'll post a daily (or so) episode of me reading from Pacific Northwest history books that I like. In Episode 15, the fifteenth installment of "Skid Road: An Informal Portrait of Seattle" by Murray Morgan, published by Viking Press, New York, in 1951. We continue with the section about John Considine and live entertainment in Seattle circa 1900, as a political dispute veers toward possible violence.
