"...was formed on June 17, 1863 and derived its name from a famous American hero. It is the second oldest volunteer fire company still in existence on the Pacific Coast. The building housed both the gurry and swift volunteer companies previous to 1908 when it became the home to Warren company. Their motto " where duty calls, there you'll find us" still applies to today."
Local Historical Point of Interest: Julia C Bulette chapter 1864. E Clampus Vitus.
