John C. McLagan , J.M. O’Brien and John William Gunn started the Vancouver Daily World in 1888 .

The World ran a front-page story on Gunn skipping town, saying he was headed to San Francisco .

Gunn didn’t go to the U.S. with some of the World ’s money, but he had taken a job at another newspaper in Snohomish County .

McLagan died on April 10, 1901 at 62 after a long illness.

[email protected] - Ninety-nine years ago, The Vancouver Sun bought The Vancouver World . - Major James Skitt Matthews sounds like he was quite eccentric, and quite cranky. But his passion for early Vancouver helped create one of the city’s gems, the Vancouver Archives..
