Tillamook Rock Lighthouse keeper Walter T. Lawrence uses the government issued lighthouse service telescope to spot the incoming tender on its approach to the light in 1920. The tender’s arrival was greatly anticipated because of the mail and fresh provisions it always brought and the opportunity for one of the keepers to go on shore leave.
