The Sitka Sentinel, Sitka, Alasaka, on September 9, 1942 gave an updated on wrestler Milton
Harnden.  Harnden was the captain of the trolling boat "Margie Claire" and was also a part
time carpenter for Slems Drake.  He claimed that he was still prepared to wrestle any
challengers at 135 pounds.  On June 12, 1914, he won the World Lightweight championship
with a victory over Johnny Billiter of Cleveland.  In 1916, he added to his laurels when he won
a trophy in a match with Eugene Trembley of Montreal.
