ca. 1946. Congressman Thor Tollefson, on right in photo, shakes hands with Patrick M. Steele, his successor as Pierce County Prosecutor. Mr. Tollefson vacated the prosecuting attorney's office to make a successful run for a seat in the House of Representatives in 1946. Mr. Steele defeated Democrat Hugh Roselllini by roughly 5,000 votes. Patrick Steele later became a representative for the 26th District in the state legislature. (TNT 11-6-46, p. 1 ) ALBUM 4.
