Louis Levy

Louis Levy lived at Champagne for quite a while before he left for outside. He was Shorty Chamber's backer in the store at Champagne. He spoke Tlingit so well that he would sit around the store and tell stories in the language. Levy used to supply dry goods and stuff from Vancouver for the store at Champagne and he would come up once in a while. Shorty was supposed to pay him off and then own the store. He paid and he paid, and after he died his son George kept paying and finally paid him off. After George died, Phelps was Louie Levy's lawyer and Levy got some more money. George’s wife Sue ended up with nothing, and even had to buy back the horse equipment.¹⁾
