     DAVID A. PATTULLO.  For over thirty-five years David A. Pattullo has been 
associated with the Balfour-Guthrie Company and for a number of years has 
served very capably as the manager of the Crown Mills, at Portland, one of the 
largest and important flour mills of the Columbia river valley. Mr. Pattullo 
was born in county Angus, Scotland, in 1867, and is a son of Adam and 
Elizabeth (Smith) Pattullo, both of whom are deceased. He received a public 
and high school education in his native country, after which he was employed 
on his father's farms until 1887, when he came to the United States. Locating 
in Minnesota, he engaged in farming for three years, and in 1890 went to 
Tacoma, Washington. Two years later he came to Portland and went to work for 
the Balfour-Guthrie Company, being put in charge of several thousand acres of 
land which the firm owned. After several years he was transferred to that 
company's grain department and for several years, beginning in 1896, served as 
superintendent of the construction of warehouses, over seventy of which he 
built. For a number of years he then had charge of the operation of these 
warehouses. Later he served in the grain and flour end of the business and 
helped to erect the Crown mills, of which he has since been manager, also 
managing the company's feed business. He faithfully and capably discharged 
every responsibility placed on him and is regarded as one of the most valuable 
employees of his company.

     In 1899 Mr. Pattullo was united in marriage to Miss Mabel Brehaut, who 
was born and reared on Prince Edward island, Canada. They have two children, 
David, who is married and has one child and resides in Tacoma, Washington, and 
Marion, who is a student in the University of Oregon. Mr. Pattullo gives his 
political support to the republican party and has always shown a commendable 
interest in public affairs. He belongs to the Portland Chamber of Commerce, is 
a director of the Merchants and Manufacturers Association and is a life member 
of the Portland Golf Club and the Multnomah Athletic Club.
