History
The current route that SR 113 uses today was first state-maintained in 1937, during the creation of the Primary and secondary system as SSH 9A, extending from Sappho to Port Angeles. The Sappho–Clallam Bay segment was dropped from SSH 9A in 1955 and SSH 9A instead extended west to Neah Bay. SSH 9A later became SR 112 during the 1964 highway renumbering and SR 113 was assigned to a different route. In 1991, SR 113 was given the current route from Sappho to Clallam Bay and no further alignment changes have since happened.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The one duty we owe to history is to rewrite it.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“The second day of July 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more”
—John Adams (1735–1826)
“To summarize the contentions of this paper then. Firstly, the phrase ‘the meaning of a word’ is a spurious phrase. Secondly and consequently, a re-examination is needed of phrases like the two which I discuss, ‘being a part of the meaning of’ and ‘having the same meaning.’ On these matters, dogmatists require prodding: although history indeed suggests that it may sometimes be better to let sleeping dogmatists lie.”
—J.L. (John Langshaw)
