Vitals from The Hood River Glacier (From its beginnings in 1889 through 1903) Many Thanks to Mr. Jeffrey W. Bryant and Mrs. Wayne Gurley, and Jeffrey Elmer whose earlier gleanings were the incentive for me to provide the following. The resources of the Hood River County Library have provided this information. For the years listed above, the bound issues currently available (Dec. 2006) are: 1894, 1895, 1896, 1897, 1898, 1900, 1901, and 1903. The microfilm coverage is: Reel 1 contains 1889 - 1901 (no 1894, 1895, 1895 or 1898). Reel 2 contains 1901 - 1904. The bound issues seemed fairly complete for a particular year, however I would find numerous issues missing on the microfilm, therefore both were checked to provide the most complete coverage. I hope this information will assist in your research. 1889 Vitals At the Hood River County Library this year is available only on microfilm. All available issues were gleaned for Vitals, and the results appear below. Surnames: Use the EDIT key to search for a Surname. Remember, it might be listed more than once.

Thursday Feb. 19, Marian, wife of Dr. C.F. Newcomb, aged about 30 years. Dr. and Mrs. Newcomb resided here a number of years and the entire community is their friend. The bereaved husband and motherless little ones have the tenderest sympathies of this neighborhood in their sad affliction. Mrs. Newcomb was a cousin of Mr. George Mathias of this place, who left Friday to attend the funeral. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., February 21, 1891, page 3 "From the Dalles Chronicle" License to wed was issued to R. Prather and Mrs. M.J. Huskey, both of Hood River. A few days ago Mrs. Huskey's son was married to Mr. Prather's daughter. This is entirely a family affair, and by a happy stroke of policy prevents a multiplicity of mother-in-law. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., March 14, 1891, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" George Mathias who was called to Victoria, B.C. a few weeks ago, on account of the death of his cousin, Mrs. Dr. Newcombe, returned home last Saturday. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., March 7, 1891, page 3 RESOLUTIONS OF SYMPATHY Whereas, Sister L.R. Thomas, has been so greatly bereaved in the death of her only child a precious boy. Resolved, the the members of Canby W.R. Corps de extend to sister L.R. Thomas and Dr. Thomas, their heartfelt sympathy. Resolved, that in the death of Newton Thomas we feel a personal loss, and grieve that his voice and presence will be missed from the little company of boys who have brightened our gatherings with their patriotic songs. Resolved, that in the going out of this young life, his country has sustained a loss, for this youth was early taught the debt of gratitude a man owes his native land. Resolved, that we tenderly admonish our sad companion: "Of all we know Of all that we can dream below Of that far land to when we go This one expression, hath expressed To us, its blessedness, the best, He giveth his beloved rest." Resolved, that a copy of these resolutions be sent to sister L.R. Thomas, and a copy to the GLACIER and be transcribed upon our Journal. By order of the Committee. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., March 14, 1891, page 3 "Born" In Hood River Valley March 6th, to Mr. and Mrs. R.E. Harbison, a daughter. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., April 14, 1891, page 3 "Married" At the home of M.J. Ward, on Monday evening, March 30th, 1891, by Elder Fleming, Mr. B.F. Ward, of Marble Rock, to Miss Isadora Feak, of Hood River, Oregon. The weekly with a host of friends wishes the young couple success and happiness through their matrimonial life. -- Marble Rock Iowa Weekly. The bride resided here for several years and had a host of friends here whose best wishes will follow them through life. Mr. Ward was here only a short time but won the respect of all with whom he came in contact. It is a long trip from Iowa here, for a bride, but when one knows the Hood River girls, he knows they are worth a thousand such journeys. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., May 9, 1891, page 2 The body of William Barbour, the missing Lebanon merchant, was found Monday in the Willamette river near Pennoyer's mill at Portland. There was a bullet hole in the head, and the coroner's jury returned a verdict that he had been murdered. Barbour was last seen in the saloons of Portland, spending money freely, and this no doubt caused his death, the party murdering him for his money. Portland is a cosmopolitan city and contains toughs from all nations and it is the part of wisdom to steer clear of the saloons and exhibit as little money as possible. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., May 23, 1891, page 3 DEATH OF WILLIAM ODELL William Odell died at his home on the east side last Friday evening at 7 o'clock. He had been under Dr. Vanderpool's care at Dafur for several months, being treated for cancer, and about a month ago became partially paralyzed. Giving up all hope of being cured he was brought home, and although his death was momentarily expected he lived for nearly three weeks, suffering agony all the time, until death came to his relief. He was a native of Tennessee and came to Oregon in 1861, settling in this valley, and has resided here ever since. He was well known all over the county, and served a term as county commissioner. Mr. Odell was a man of generous impulses, a good neighbor, a true friend, and an honest and valuable citizen. He was in his 59th year, and leaves a wife and six children. The funeral took place last Sunday, Rev. Troy Shelly conducting the services.

Backus, died at 5 o'clock Sunday afternoon, of consumption. The funeral took place Monday from the family residence in Spokane, Falls, Washington. Interment at Fairmont cemetery. Mrs. Backus was 43 years of age and leaves two daughters to mourn her loss. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 15, 1891, page 3 "Died" At the home of her parents, four miles southwest of town, Thursday morning, Aug. 13th, Jessie, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas McKay, aged 9 years. It was rumored that the death was caused by diphtheria, but this does not seem to be well authenticated, it being also stated that she died of lung fever, which latter seems more probable, as the child had not been exposed to the disease. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 15, 1891, page 2 CARD OF THANKS We hereby tender our sincere thanks to our neighbors for kindly sympathy and aid in our recent bereavement. MR. AND MRS. THOMAS McKAY. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 29, 1891, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" On account of the nature of the disease there was no funeral services at the burial of Mr. McKay's daughter. There will therefore be a memorial service in the valley Congregational church tomorrow. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 29, 1891, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" The sad intelligence reached us Saturday morning that Miss Etta McKay had succumbed to that dread disease, diphtheria. What makes it more sad is the fact that she is the second one from the same family taken within ten days. The parents are almost heart-broken, and serious doubts were entertained as to whether Mr. McKay would survive the shock, being afflicted with heart trouble; but we are glad to state that he is out of danger. Miss McKay was a very intelligent and agreeable young lady and had many friends in this community. The funeral took place Sunday. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 29, 1891, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" W.H. Dunn, who died at The Dalles last Saturday, was a brother-in-law of Mrs. A.H. Jewett. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 29, 1891, page 3 "Died" Drowned in Spring lake below Hood River Saturday August 22, Daisy Curtis aged 11 years. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 29, 1891, page 3 DROWNING OF DAISY CURTIS On last Saturday little Daisy Curtis, only daughter of Anson and Mrs. Curtis, of Portland, was drowned in Spring lake, below Idlewilde. At 11 o'clock Saturday morning a party consisting of Mrs. T.J. Watson, Miss Dollie Martin, Miss Annie Martin, Daisy Curtis and Len Curtis and Leonard C. Jones, of Portland, together with Miss Ethel Cook and Stanley Stowell, of Hood River, went to the lake for the purpose of bathing. On arriving at the lake, the children, Len and Daisy Curtis, together with Miss Cook and Mr. Jones, boarded a raft, which had been made for them a few days before, while the other ladies and Mr. Stowell floated in the water, only placing their hands on the timbers. Mr. Jones propelled the raft, by means of an oar, to the sand bar on the other side of the lake, where they all enjoyed swimming and bathing for an hour. Starting back, Mr. Stowell, together with Miss Cook and the children, remained on the raft, the others floating in the water with their hands on the raft and Mr. Jones swimming ahead. When about fifty feet from the shore, and where the water was twelve feet deep, the raft was by some unknown cause capsized, and in a moment all were struggling for their lives. Mr. Stowell and Mr. Jones were the only ones who could swim, and they at once swam to the aid of the drowning ones. Mr. Stowell grabbed Miss Annie Martin and Miss Cook and took them safely to shore. Mrs. Watson climbed up on the raft, and throwing out the oar, begged the men to save the children. Mr. Jones, who was a long way off, came up to Miss Dollie Martin, after she had sunk twice, and she grasping him in a death grip, pulled him to the bottom with her. They rose to the surface, and through a superhuman effort on the part of Mr. Jones, reached the shore, with the young lady in an exhausted condition. Throwing her from him high up on the bank, Mr. Jones started back for the children and reached the little boy just as he was sinking for the last time. Nothing was to be seen of the little girl, so the boy was drawn to shore safely, when the men at once started back to look for Daisy. She had not come to the surface after sinking the first time, and the supposition is that she swallowed a great deal of water, and that with her heavy bathing dress kept her down. Mr. Stowell and Mr. Jones, both of whom are expert swimmers, dove repeatedly from the raft to recover the little girl, but to no avail, and then came the awful fact that Daisy was drowned. Mrs. Watson had started immediately upon reaching shore for town, and on reaching the hotel shouted that someone had been drowned in the lake, and they must bring ropes and grapnel irons at once. Never did people respond more nobly to a call for aid, and in a few moments they had arrived at the scene of the accident, and regardless of clothing, many rushed into the lake and searched for the child's body, hoping that she might be brought to life if found; but all to no purpose until Jack Lucky arrived with a grapnel iron made of a piece of gas pipe, eighteen feet long, with wire hooks attached, which he made and brought to the lake within thirty minutes from his first arrival there. At the first drawing of the grapnel the body was brought to the surface and was borne to the shore by the willing and tender hands of the searchers. The child had been in water then two hours, but hoping still to revive her, Dr. Thomas worked over her for an hour, but to no avail -- little Daisy was drowned! Dr. Thomas notified her mother at once, breaking the news to her very gently and kindly. Mr. Curtis arrived here on a special train at 6:30 p.m., and they bore all that was mortal of the little girl back to Portland. No blame is attached to any one of the bathers, as the accident was unforeseen and everything possible was done to save the child's life. It is remarkable that all the others were saved, as the water was deep and all were struggling for their lives at once. Daisy was 11 years old and Len 9, the children of Mr. Anson Curtis, who is well known here. He was engineer for the O.R. & N. Co for thirteen years, running between Portland and The Dalles, and is now foreman of the shops of the Union Pacific at Albina. The residents of Hood River can well be called the kindliest and most sympathetic of people, for, forgetting their business and homes, they rushed to the rescue and worked nobly for two hours to save a human life. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 29, 1891, page 3 "Died" At the planer, three miles below town, Sunday, August 23, 1891, William Stewart Geddes, aged 35 years, 3 months and 11 days. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 29, 1891, page 3 DEATH OF MR. GEDDES William Stewart Geddes, a member of the Oregon Lumber Co., and bookkeeper ever since the firm was established here, five years ago, died suddenly last Sunday of brain fever or heart disease. He had been sick but a few days, complaining of a pain in his head Tuesday last, but was not confined to his bed until the day he died. Dr. Adams was called Thursday and stated that he had brain fever, but as if he was getting along so well, was not considered dangerously sick. Mr. Ed Miller and Frank Davenport, with his wife, were caring for him, and they remained up Saturday night till about half-past 12, when, as he was resting well, all retired but Mr. Davenport. About 3 o'clock he called his wife, and placing his hand over his heart, said, "This is awful!" Mr. Miller was called, and by the time he reached his side he was bleeding his last. The remains were embalmed by Undertakers Crandall & Burget, of The Dalles, and shipped to his old home at Planer, Utah, Monday night, accompanied by his family and a brother, Grant Geddes, and Mr. West, who arrived here from North Powder Monday morning. He leaves a wife and five children, the eldest about 10 and the youngest aged 3 years. His family are well provided for and will remain in Utah. Mr. Geddes was an honest, upright man and the company will fill his loss severely. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 29, 1891, page 3 "Born" Saturday, August 22d, to Mr. and Mrs. J.T. Delk, a son. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 29, 1891, page 3 "Died" In Hood River valley, Saturday August 22, 1891, Miss Etta McKay, aged 19 years. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 29, 1891, page 3 RESCUED BY THE STEAMER BAKER Last Monday morning, about 8 o'clock, Mrs. Aleck and three children left the camp on the White Salmon, where they have been laying in their winter supply of fish, in their sail boat for this side of the Columbia, coming home for the day. When nearly over to this side, the boat, which is a leaky affair, filled with water and sunk, throwing them all out. The mother succeeding in catching hold of the two youngest children, a girl aged 8 and a boy 5. In the meantime the boat had drifted so far from her that she was unable to reach it. The oldest boy, George, aged 11 years, swam to the boat and got in and drifted ashore. The mother with her right hand clutch the boy's coat and the girl's dress and paddled with her left, succeeding in keeping up until she was rescued by the steamer Baker, which came along soon after she was in the water. The captain tried to reach her with the steamer, but finding that impossible, sent out a small boat, by which she was picked up. Being unable, of course, to hold the heads of her children above water, they were both drowned. Every means was used to restore them, but all were unavailing. Jo. Aleck, the father of the children, is an Indian, civilized, as is also the mother. Mr. Aleck was at the time across the river with the mail, being the mail carrier between this point and White Salmon, and knew nothing of the accident until his return several hours later. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Father Bronsgest, of The Dalles, Wednesday morning, and the children were buried at the home place. The community sympathizes with the parents in their said bereavement. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., September 5, 1891, page 3 "Married" At the rectory in The Dalles, by Rev. E.D.

Mrs. Graham came to the coast about a year ago from Newago county, Michigan, hoping to regain her health, but while being temporarily benefited, disease had too firm a hold to be shaken off.

Hayes, and Henry and Willard Udell. Mr. and Mrs. Hoag have gone to housekeeping in Mrs. A.R. Middlefon's residence on Oak street. It is unnecessary, perhaps, to add that the GLACIER has extended to them its paternal blessing and has bespoken for them the kindest treatment from the chief clerk of Kismet. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., November 7, 1891, page 3 "Died" At Hood River Saturday morning, October 31st, Lillian, daughter of Mrs. Mattie Oiler, aged 5 years. The funeral took place Monday morning. Lillian was the only child of Mrs. Oiler, who is indeed bereft, her husband dying about a year ago. Lillian was a bright child if happy disposition and sunny temperament. In such cases words of consolation are but mockery, idle, hollow, useless. The tenderest sympathies of the entire community are with the bereaved mother in her doubly sad bereavement.

The best wishes of all go with the young couple to their new home.

Wednesday evening Mr. Harrison received a big box by express which on being opened disclosed a double shipment of wedding cake, one consignment being to Mr. and Mrs. Bartmess. There were five kinds of it, each better than the other, at least that's the way they seems to us, and they were packed so nicely that the frosting on them was not broken.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., November 28, 1891, page 3 ANOTHER DROWNING Last Friday night an Indian was drowned in the Columbia near the mouth of the little White Salmon. It seems there was a dance to be given at William's place that evening and the boats went over from this side. Indian Peter was in the rear boat, though but a short distance behind his friends, and alone. The wind was blowing quite hard and the river was very rough. When near the shore, and beating down against the wind the sail jibed, throwing Peter out. He called twice but his friends could not reach him, and though a good swimmer he was weighed down with a heavy overcoat, and sunk in a few moments. At this writing the body has not been recovered.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., November 19, 1892, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" At the court house Wednesday morning during the session of circuit court the people in attendance were startled by seeing a man in the audience suddenly throw himself backward in his seat with a groan and then collapse in a senseless heap on the floor. Help quickly reached him, and he was lifted up and carried into the corridor, where it was found that he was past all earthly help. It was supposed that heart disease or apoplexy was the cause of his sudden death, but nothing can be determined definitely as to this before the inquest, which will be held this evening. His name as we learn from Mr. Hans, is U.S. Becknall, and he is a member of the local carpenter's union, 26 years of age, single, and a native of Ohio. Mr. Becknall has been in the employ of Mr. Louis Ostland, the contractor, for some time, was a steady workman and held in high esteem by his associates. His sudden and tragic death so far away from relatives and loved ones will be a sad blow to them. -- Wasco Sun. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., November 19, 1892, page 3 "Died" (very poor copy and difficult to read) Saturday, Nov. 19th, Mrs. Julia Howell, aged 23 years 2 months 9 days. The funeral took place from the Barrett residence Sunday afternoon, the body being interred beside that of Mrs. Barrett's father, the late Velorus Hodge, in a beautiful spot on the farm. Mrs. Howell was the only child of Dr. and Mrs. P.G. Barrett, and was married to Mr. O. Howell August 9th, 1891. Soon after the wedding she accompanied her husband to Truxillo, Honduras, and her bright and convincing description of the country furnished the Denver papers, did much to counteract the influence of the flood of misleading and untruthful circulars concerning that country which were scattered broadcast throughout the United states. She was a bright and ____ writer, possessed of fine descriptive powers; a talented musician, possessing a sweet and well trained voice, and that added to a vivacious disposition and sunny temperament made her a universal favorite. Besides her beloved husband and parents, she leaves twin boys aged but a few weeks and to them all the sympathy of the entire community is extended.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., January 14, 1893, page 3 BEN BUTLER DEAD Benjamin F. Butler died at his Washington residence at 1:30 Wednesday morning. His death was "sudden and unexpected," the death said by Caesar to be the most desirable. Butler was one of the most picturesque figures of the late war, and withal a man of great talents, albeit they did not run to military affairs. As a lawyer he was the peer of any in the world, and as a politician he had few equals, and yet he loved notoriety and managed always to get it. He was indeed a strange make up, for in him were mingled the sage and the clown, the philosopher and the montebank; the shrewd business man, and the professional agitator. He burned the midnight oil at the shrine of Wisdom and aired himself freely in the sunshine of Folly. He was, and is not; and being the only specimen of his type, there shall be no other like him forever.

In January, 1854, she joined her husband, who had preceded her to Oregon 2 years, in Portland, and in the fall of the same year moved with him to Hood River, where she remained until her death. At an early age she joined the Baptist church, of which she remained a member through life. The following lines were her composition, and these she continued to repeat, even after all else had faded from memory: My God, my life, my light, To Thee, to Thee I call; I cannot live if Thou remove, Thou are my All in All.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., April 29, 1893, page 3 A SAD ACCIDENT Wednesday, as the steamer Regulator was returning from the Cascade Locks with the Odd Fellows' excursion, and when near Wind River, Martin Schroeder, a boy 11 years old, slipped, while near the foot of the starboard gangway, and fell to the bottom. The steps end near the guard, on the forward lower deck, which is without guard rails, and the boy, striking on the deck, pitched overboard. The steamer was backed and a boat lowered. As the steamer neared the boy a deck-hand named Scott seized a life-preserver and leaped into the river to rescue him. The waves were running high, and Scott's efforts were unsuccessful, but the boy was finally reached with a boat hook from the steamer. The boat in the meanwhile had drifted a quarter of a mile downstream, and a second boat was launched and the brave Scott rescued. Every effort was made to resuscitate the boy, but without avail, and Dr. Brosius being telegraphed for from Viento, met the boat here and went on to The Dalles. He soon found there was no life in the little body, and is of the opinion that he was beyond all hope when pulled out of the water. The father of the boy was killed in the wreck at the Cascades three years ago. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., May 6, 1893, page 3 "Born" April 23rd, to Mr. and Mrs. J.H.

Murphy, about a quarter of a mile from the latter's cabin. The body was lying by a log and, from appearances, death had taken place nearly a week before. Justice Knox of Baldwin precinct held the inquest on the body Sunday, with the following jury: Dave Wishart, D.R. Cooper, George Perkins, George Wishart, Thomas A. Connor and Frank Reis. The body was badly decomposed, and an examination disclosed a bruise three or four inches in diameter on the top of the head with the skin broken in several places. All around the body were horse tracks, and the marks of a dragging rope. The evidence of Mr. Francesco, was that several days before he had walked a short distance with deceased who was then going toward the place where the body was found, for the purpose of catching his horse. The jury found that his death was caused by the horse kicking him. Deceased had received some $_00. 00 recently, from the government in payment of Indian depredation claim, and had deposited it in The Dalles National bank. His check book showed that it had all been paid, or loaned out to different parties. Murphy was a pioneer, and was, we understand, in the battle with the Indians at the Lower Cascades.

They had been to Grant in a small boat, after a sack of wheat, and the first intimation of the accident was the finding of the boat filled with water near Biggs.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 5, 1893, page 3 A VAIN EFFORT Indian Jim's daughter aged about 12 years, died Tuesday. Monday evening a lot of squaws gathered near Jim's camp and catching a dog tied it in a tree and beat him to death with clubs, to "exorcise the evil spirit." The unearthly yells of the "exorcised" dog swelled by the chorus joined in by all the other dogs was enough to put the chief of evil spirits to flight, but it had no effect except to exorcise the spirit of the canine. From the noise, one could be easily persuaded that Mayor Rinehart had deported The Dalles contingent, and that they were all here.

FERGUSON The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., October 7, 1893, page 3 CARL PERHAM KILLED A said accident occurred at the Clackamas bridge, on the East Side of electric railway line, at Oregon City, Wednesday evening of last week. It resulted in the death of Carl Perham, who, with other bridgemen was repairing the bridge, which two weeks ago sprung out of line. The men had been at work all day upon the upper chords of the bridge, tightening up the rods, and had been passing to and fro on the lateral bases between the chords. They used the electric wires, which are strung upon the bridge, for support as they passed. A little before 5 o'clock Carl went across the bridge after an auger. In taking hold of the wires, he probably seized a live wire at a point where the insulation was broken. The first his fellow-work men knew of the accident was seeing him stagger and hearing the buzzing sound usual to a connection between live electric wires. In a moment he fell back with his head across another wire. They were powerless to help him, and were obliged to stand by and see the flames burn his hands. A half minute later he fell from the upper chords to the main chords of the bridge, where he was caught by his brother, H.W. Perham, the foreman in charge of the work. His body was apparently lifeless when he fell. He was immediately taken to the bank, where his body was carefully examined. It was found that aside from his hands, which were burned to a crisp back to the palms, there was no other mark. Death had probably been instantaneous with the first contact of the live wires, which were carrying 5000 volts. They are the wires used in supplying East Portland with its commercial lights. These wires were not used until 4:20 when the current was turned on, and this probably accounts for the fact no accident had occurred earlier in the day. Perham was a young man of good habits and had no family aside from several brothers and his mother, who live in East Portland. The body was taken in charge of Coroner Holman, who decided that it was not necessary to hold an inquest, for the facts connected with his death were all known. Deceased was formerly a resident of this place, being a son of Judge Perham.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., November 25, 1893, page 3 FATAL ACCIDENT Friday last Fred Kemp, Jr., met with an accident which resulted in his death Tuesday. He was coming to town with a load of wood, and in coming down the Tucker hill the wood crowded out against the brake rod, so that it would not work. The horses could not hold the wagon, and just at the turn in the road Fred pulled them into the bank. The momentum was such that instead of stopping, the wheel was pushed up on the bank, upsetting the wagon. The poor boy was thrown on his back in the road, the load falling on him. The accident was seen from Tucker's and willing hands soon released him. When found, a side stake was lying across his hips, the weight of the load resting on the pelvis. He was taken home at once, but was not thought to be seriously hurt, as there were no bruises on him except on his back, where he struck in the road. Later he began to experience terrible pains, and Dr. Brosius was called. He found the public arch had been injured by the great weight, splinters of bone being broken from the inner side, one of which had cut the urethra. Drs. Morgan and Barrett were called in consultation and everything possible was done, but in vain, and after terrible suffering, death came to his relief Tuesday morning. Fred was a bright, happy dispositioned boy who was loved by all. The funeral took place Thursday morning, at ten o'clock, the interment being in Pine Grove cemetery.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., December 2, 1893, page 3 HELD FOR IDENTIFICATION A man giving his name as George Fuller was arrested as a hobo by Mr. Maloney last night, and he answered the description of Frank Martin, who was wanted for murder committed at Evanston, Wyoming, October 19th. Of course he pretended to have no knowledge of having been guilty of any crime in Wyoming, but on being closely questioned acknowledged he was in Evanston about that date, and be evasive answers to other questions gave strong indications of having done something of which he was not proud. His description was given in a printed circular, offering $100 for his apprehension, and accompanying this was a half-tone photogravure, which resembled him very much. When arrested he had a full beard of dark brown color, and when the photograph was taken he was clean shaved. Mr. Maloney had a photograph of him taken with his whiskers, and also one when those were shaved. He was found to have on three coats and two pairs of trousers, one of which that answered the description in the circular, being turned inside out. The name of the firm of which the hat was purchased was in embossed letters on the band; but this has been torn off, which is rather suspicious. Henry Wade was the man whom he killed; but no further particulars of the crime were given. Martin three away the coat in which he left Evanston, which he acknowledged to the recorder. As soon as the sheriff is heard from, he will either be taken back or discharged; but very likely the former. -- Mountaineer.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., December 16, 1893, page 3 HOW ALBERT WALLACE DIED From Mr. Perry we learned the particulars of the wreck in which Albert Wallace was killed. There was a train standing on the main track taking water. This train had orders to meet the train on which Wallace was, but the latter train had no such orders but would have received them at the station. The engineer pulled in rapidly, intending to stop the caboose in front of the station, but a few feet beyond it stood the other train. The morning was very foggy, the testimony at the inquest showing that one could not see beyond three car lengths. The head brakeman was on the engine, sitting in Wallace's place, while he was in the tender breaking down coal. The brakeman saw the engine when only a few feet from it and threw himself through the window, and escaped with only a few bruises. The engineer and Wallace were killed instantly, the latter not even knowing the collision was to happen. Two oil cars just back of the engine exploded and took fire, and the bodies of the unfortunate men were badly burned and would have been consumed but for being protected by the wreck of the engine. Mr. Perry arrived here with Albert's remains Tuesday morning, and at 10 o'clock they were buried in the K. of P. cemetery, a large number of friends attending the last said rites.

Varney, who died at Oakland, Oregon, September 20th, was born in Maine in 1825. In 1861 he was appointed chaplain of the Seventh Maine regiment and served in all of the battles and engagement of the peninsula campaign under General McClellan. At the close of the war he returned to Maine, where he spent several years in business pursuits, leaving that state in 1877 to engage in sheep business in Oregon with his brother-in-law, Thomas S. Lang of The Dalles. In 1882 he sold his flocks and moved to The Dalles, where he resided ten years. In 1891 he became a member and manager in charge of the Chenowith Park Association, a corporation owning several thousand acres of orchards and vineyards in the vicinity of Oakland. General Varney was a member of the Trinity Commandery of Knights Templars of Augusta, Me., a member of the Loyal Legion, and in 1890 was commander of the department of Oregon, Grand Army of the Republic. For years he was a member of the Oregon state board of horticulture that was high authority on all questions connected with the fruit industry. The following tribute to his memory from the Times-Mountaineer can be subscribed to by all who knew him in this section: "General Varney's life was remarkably pure, blameless and useful, and wherever he sojourned his neighbors became his warm and admiring friends. Although he had almost reached the mark of three score years and ten and, his manner of life had been so temperate and correct that his appearance was that of a man under 50, and his bearing erect and soldierly."

F. Boswell and Miss Edith A. Straight, both of Straightsburg, Hood River valley. Mr. J.N. Hartley of Portland acted as groomsman and the bride's sister, Miss Ida, as bridesmaid. The groom was attired in a navy blue suit, with a rose of Sharon on the lapel of his coat. The bride was dressed in light tan, trimmed in rich silk, with a wreath of orange blossoms in her hair, and her neat form encased in a handsome bridal veil, which added greatly to her appearance and made the young men present envy Mr. Boswell's position. After the ceremony those present were repaired to the dining room, where a fine wedding dinner was served, and judging from the manner in which it was gotten up, Mr. Boswell has a cook that can beat the French. Mr. Boswell is to be complimented in his choice, as he has for his companion one from the first rank of Hood River's society. Miss Edith (now Mrs. Boswell) is a young lady of true Christian character, who by pleasant smiles and kind words makes friends with all whom she meets. She is in truth one of the earth's angels. Mr. Boswell is a young man of sober, industrious habits, and during his residence here has won a host of friends. He has just erected a neat cottage on his farm here, where him and his wife will be domiciled. We are glad to have them remain with us, and wish them all the happiness this world can give. H.

O'er thy grave we're standing, Eddie, Peaceful slumber be they rest; For we know what that thou art numbered With the pure, the truth and blest. With sorrowing hearts we gathered 'round him, His little form so fair and bright, That the angel of Death had taken To a home of pure delight. Eddie's sorrows are ended In this great world below; In Heaven his reward was waiting, And the Angels let him now. Well, we know that he was welcome When he entered that pearly gate; Met with the loved ones gone before -- Oh! how pure and sweet his fate. Yes, little Eddie has left us -- His spirit has taken its flight, To dwell in Heaven for evermore, The land of love and light. With saddened hearts we bid him farewell; O'er his grave the flowers we strew; Made the God of Heaven protect us all Till we meet on the golden shore.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., December 29, 1894, page 2 A HUNTER'S FATE A correspondent at Trout Lake send the GLACIER the following account of the death of C. L. Allison. Mr. Allison was a valued correspondent of this paper, and we are pained to learn of his sad death: "Clinton Allison, aged about 35, a rancher at Trout Lake, Klickitat county, Washington, very little expected that it would be his last journey on earth when he started in pursuit of a dear of the 12th of this month. His brother, Edward Allison, was with him at the time, but feeling somewhat indisposed, went home to his own ranch, situated about three miles from the one of his brother. On the 18th Edward concluded to pay another visit to Clinton, and on coming to the house, found that his brother had not returned from his hunt. He alarmed his neighbors, and next morning, the 19th, a searching party started for the mountains. It was not an easy task, for there had been a fresh fall of 10 or 12 inches of snow. At last one man succeeded in finding Allison's snow shoes leaning against a tree, and from that place faint tracks could be seen at intervals leading up the mountain side. The first day, however, passed by without any further results, but the second day, December 20th, at about 11 o'clock a.m., one of the party found the body, covered with snow. He was lying stretched out on his back, and seemed to have died without a struggle. His hunting-knife was sticking into the snow, and his rifle, ready to shoot, was lying beside him. Just what manner he came to his death will probably remain forever a mystery. The party took the body down to his house, where it was buried on the 21st. The place where Clinton Allison met his death is about six miles southwest of Trout Lake and two and one-half miles from his house. Clifton Allison had lived at Trout Lake five years. He was like very much by his neighbors and his untimely death is regretted by all." The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., December 29, 1894, page 3 FATAL RAILROAD ACCIDENT At 3:30 Christmas morning as No. 1, the west bound passenger train, was passing what is known as the Summit, eight miles east of The Dalles, it came in collision with a freight train on the side track, wrecking both locomotives in a fearful manner. W. J. Sherman was engineer on the passenger train, and he and his fireman with thrown out without receiving injury; but the engineer of the freight train, J.W. Ready, was caught by the overturned tank, and it is presumed, instantly killed. His fireman escaped by jumping from the cab. Descriptions of the accident differ in some particulars, but they all agree that the freight train was on the side track, and the open switch was the direct cause of the collision. The freight had forty cars attached to the locomotive, while the switch would only hold thirty-eight. A long train like this managed to pass another by what is termed "sawing," and Mr. Ready was forced to do this to let the passenger train pass.

Morton, a former resident of Hood River, died at Salem, Oregon, November 19, 1894. Charles Reed Morton was born January 5, 1820, in the state of Ohio, of sturdy pioneer stock, and with his parents emigrated to Illinois in the early days of that state. He remained with his parents until fully matured manhood, and in the year 1852 crossed the plains to the state of Oregon, and re-crossed again to the state of Iowa, in 1854, and married Carolina Wallace in 1859, by whom he had six children. He remained in Iowa until 1875, when he again came to Oregon, where he remained until his death. He leaves a wife and four children to mourn their loss. This good and honest man died near the close of life's setting sun, and while its last rays were still shining o'er the western slope. He may not have reached the highest point that marks life's highway, but he climbed far up the heights, leaving all of the dogmas and superstitions below. The only religion he knew was his duty to his fellow man, and in doing this he cast aside all hypocrisy and met the world with an open face. He had an abiding hope in something better and grander than this world can bestow upon humanity, in the short race from the cradle to the grave. We that are living know that birth, by natural consequences, brings death, but we do not know whether death is the end of this life or the door of another, or whether the darkness here is not to somewhere else a ray of light. Every cradle asks us, whence? and every coffin, whither? We do not know; we cannot tell. The heathen Hindoo mother weeping over her innocent dead answer the question just as intelligently and satisfactorily as the robed priest of the most authentic creed. There is one satisfaction to all of us; we know the dead do not suffer. Mother Earth that nourished them claims them back to her relentless bosom, where all sorrow and pain ceases forever. Those sorrowing ones who, with bleeding hearts, stand around this grave have no fear, for as life wears on they, too, will follow those who have gone before, in the same footsteps and run the same race our father's have run, until these graves will finally come to them to be a place of peace and rest, almost of joy. We have no fear; we are content to journey on life's road, learning and doing our duty. We believe in religion, and it is this: "Help for the living, hope for the dead." "Oh, what is life? 'Tis like a flower that blooms and is gone. Youth in the morning, bright and gay with all its beauty on; But alas! old age comes in a wintry day And cuts that lovely flower away." The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., December 29, 1894, page 3 A PERILOUS TRIP IN THE MOUNTAINS William Otto of Portland passed through Hood River on his way to Portland from Trout Lake. He was one of the searching party that went out after Clinton Allison. While at the lake he had quite an adventure himself. In company with one of the Coonhausen brothers of Camas prairie, about a month ago he went on a hunting and trapping expedition in the mountains north of Mt. Adams. They met with good success, killing four bears, a number of foxes and other fur-bearing animals. While in the mountains a terrific snowstorm came on, and they started for home in the driving blizzard. They lost their way and were compelled to throw away their skins and furs, and even their blankets, to make headway in the deep snow. For five days they wandered through the trackless forest in the storm, without food and blankets. Finally they cut down green tamarac trees and he hewed out snow-shoes with an ax, and thus were enabled to reach the settlements. During the five days they were without food they saw no game, not even a jaybird. Mr. Otto is one of the best mountaineers in the country. Seven or eight years ago he had an encounter with a cougar, near Trout Lake, in which he received scars he will carry through life. He had shot a cougar, and while engaged in skinning it, the cougar's mate came on the scene and sprang upon his back. He could not use his gun and was compelled to fight the cougar with his hands and feet until he managed to reach his knife that had fallen to the ground, when he ended the battle by stabbing the cougar to the heart. The cougar managed to about strip him of his clothing and scratched him fearfully about the face and breast. 1895 Vitals At the Hood River County Library this year is available only in bound issues.

Buskirk, aged 76 years, 9 months and 28 days. Funeral services were held in the Congregational church January 3d, at 10 a.m.; Rev. J. L. Hershner officiating. Sarah Allen Childers was born in Grant county, Kentucky, March 3, 1818. She was united in marriage to William A. Buskirk July 23, 1840. Eight children, six sons and two daughters, were born to them. She leaves an aged husband and six children to mourn their loss, two sons having preceded her to the spirit world. Two sons and one daughter were with her to administer to her every want in her last sickness. She united with the Baptist church at the early age of 15, of which church she remained a faithful member through life. She was an affectionate wife, an intelligent mother, a true friend and kind neighbor, loved by all who knew her. Those who knew her best loved her most. She bore her sickness as she did the trials of life, uncomplainingly. She was stricken with paralysis December 23d, and then realized that her life work was done. During her sickness she gave her family and friends bright testimony of her hope beyond the grave, and was anxious to meet her blessed Redeemer in mansions of bliss. Just a short time before her speech left her she grew weary and explained, "Dear Jesus, how long on earth have I to stay? Roll along the wheels of time and bring the glad-some day, She also repeated the twenty-third Psalm at 11:30 p.m. She sweetly fell asleep in the arms of Jesus, resting in full hope of meeting her loved ones in Heaven.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., January 19, 1895, page 2 DEATH OF EX-GOVERNOR CHADWICK Salem, Jan. 12 - This city was again thrown into great excitement this evening when it was reported that ex-Governor S.F. Chadwick had dropped dead at his residence while eating supper. The cause of his death was heart disease, and the stricken family had no warning of the great bereavement that awaited them. Governor Chadwick, as he was familiarly called, was present at the state house during most of the day greeting old friends and visiting the legislature; he was apparently in the best of health, and was exceptionally jolly. He returned to his home shortly after 5 o'clock, when he partook of a hearty supper, and was in the act of rising from the table as the first attack came; this was immediately followed by another, which proved fatal. Ex-Governor Chadwick has been a resident of Salem for many years, and was loved and respected by all who knew him. In 1870 he was elected to the office of secretary of state, which honor was again conferred upon him in 1874. In 1876, when Governor Grover was elected to the United States senate, Mr. Chadwick, by virtue of his office, took the governor's chair, the duties of which he performed with great ability and dignity. Since that time he has been practicing law in this city, and has been prominent in all matters of public welfare. He was born in Middletown, Conn., in 1825, where he resided until he moved to Oregon. The deceased was a member of the Masonic lodge, which order will conduct the funeral. He had a son and daughter residing at Colfax, Wash., who have been sent for and will arrive Thursday. There are also two daughters residing in this city. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., January 26, 1895, page 2 "Born" In Hood River, Sunday, January 13, 1895, to Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Yates, a son. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., January 26, 1895, page 2 DEATH OF F.W. TRAVERS The very sudden and unexpected death of Mr. Frank William Travers at his residence in Hood River on last Monday morning was a great shock to the people and is profoundly regretted. He was taken sick last Thursday, and on Friday he developed a bad case of tonsillitis, but it was not thought that his illness was of a serious nature. But on Sunday night other complications arose which terminated fatally in a few hours. During their short residence in Hood River Mr. and Mrs. Travers have made many friends among our people by their varied accomplishments and affable manners, and Mrs. Travers, in this sad bereavement and irreparable loss, has the heartfelt sympathy of all our people. Mr. Travers was born in England, June 9, 1869, and at his death was 25 years, 7 months and 12 days old. To his bereft companion he was united in holy wedlock only last July, and after a most happy and promising married life of about six months she is so unexpectedly led into the deep waters of affliction, but she mourns not as one who has no hope. Mr. Travers was a member of the church of England, and by request the beautiful and impressive burial service of this church, was read at a private funeral service on Tuesday afternoon, Rev. J. L. Hershner officiating. The mortal remains of Mr. Travers were taken to Portland Wednesday evening, where they will be placed in a temporary vault until late in the spring, when they will be taken by his sorrowing companion and her sister and family to England. It seems providential that Mr. James Lewis and wife, who is a sister to Mrs. Travers, should have been guided in their extensive travels to be with Mr. Travers in his fatal illness.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., February 9, 1895, page 3 THE LATE G.H. PALMER Gurden H. Palmer, whose death was announced last week, was a pioneer of Oregon. He was born in Danville, Illinois, in 1832, when he resided till 1851, when he crossed the plains to Oregon. He lived at the Cascades until 1857, and was there at the time of the Indian massacre. He then went to Tygh Valley, where he resided three years. Coming back to The Dalles, he soon after settled at White Salmon. Two years ago he rented his farm at White Salmon and removed to Hood River, where he resided until his death, February 1st. He leaves a wife and adopted child. Pneumonia was the cause of his death, of which he had the second relapse. Mr. Palmer was of that class of hearty frontiersmen who are fast passing away. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., February 9, 1895, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" A family named Frost came to Hood River, about a year ago, from the neighborhood of Dufur. The husband was an invalid, and the wife, in caring for the sick man, overtaxed her strength, and Sunday last was paralyzed and died. The remains were shipped to Dufur for interment. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., February 16, 1895, page 3 IN MEMORIAM Mrs. Samantha M. Frost, had been a resident of Hood River but two and a half years, leaves many friends in Dufur and in the county where she formerly lived, who sincerely feel a personal loss. She will be missed in the neighborhood where she lived by young and old; they will miss the warm clasp of her hand, the quiet, cordial agreement, the sunny smile. The children will miss their never-forgetting friend, and those bound to her by ties of kinship will find life far poorer than her on the other side of the silent sea. Her humility, patience and brooding mother love, reaching out to any in need of comfort, was the secret of her perennial charm, which kept her heart young and her human interests awake to the very last; and it was in the quiet springs of a deeply religious nature that she found the source of her beautiful life.

Mr. and Mrs. I.R. Birt. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 9, 1895, page 2 THREE MEN SUPPOSED TO BE DROWNED Tuesday morning, about 9 o'clock, while a high wind was blowing on the river, the fishermen on the sandbar below town noticed three men in a large fishing boat heading towards them from the Washington side. Mr. Hubert Ellsworth, who was engaged in hauling in a seine on the bar, saw the men in the boat. He says they were about clear of the breakers when the boat and its crew disappeared. The men were rowing standing up, and very little of the boat could be seen. The waves were rolling at least fifteen feet high. He saw them rise on the crest of the huge waves three times, and realizing that they were in great danger, started up the river for the large fishing boat belonging to Elliott & Kellish. The steamer Regulator was passing down at the time, and the captain reports that he saw the boat swamp with four men in it, but on reaching the point where they disappeared, nothing could be seen of the men or the boat. A large fishing boat was manned by five men, who immediately pulled for the breakers where the missing men were last seen, but no one was found. The five men who went out in the fishing boat to attempt the rescue of the drowning men went at the peril of their lives. Their boat half filled with water, and they were compelled to pull on through the breakers to the Washington shore to bail out their boat. A fishermen named Dolph, at work for Elliott & Kellish, was in command of the party. Billy Olsen was another of the rescuing party, but the names of the others we failed to learn. The names of the unfortunate men, or where they belonged, has not been learned. Mr. Ellsworth says the gunwales of the boat were painted white and the hull painted red. It was reported in town Wednesday that Mr. Metcalf, a fishermen of Wyeth, and two or three others had started this way prospecting for fishing grounds, and it was thought they might be the missing party. Mr. J.E. Hanna, merchant of this place, boarded a train Wednesday and went to Wyeth, when he found Metcalf and party at home. Mr. Hanna learned of a fishermen's camp of four men up the river towards Viento. He walked up to their camp and found them all right. He then came on to Viento, when he took the night train for home, after satisfying himself there was no one missing on this side of the river between here and Wyeth. Thursday morning, young McCrory, who was working for Elliott & Kellish, found a straw hat on the Washington side of the river, washed ashore near where the men was last seen in the boat. He brought the hat back to town and it is now at West Bros.' butcher shop. It is very strange that three days after the occurrence no one knows who the missing men could be. There is not much doubt but that the men were drowned, but who they were remains a mystery. They may have been tramps who got possession of the boat at The Dalles and were making their way down the river. But the fact that they stood up and rowed their boat would indicate that they were fishermen, as Mr. Ellsworth informs us fishermen generally rowed their boats in this manner. The captain of the Regulator saw four men in the boat when it went down, while Mr. Ellsworth saw but three; but the latter says he could not see something low in the boat, which might have been a man bailing out the water. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 9, 1895, page 2 SO CAROLINE DIED Times-Mountaineer Caroline, she of the majestic figure and arid throat, has gone over the river into the happy hunting ground provided for her race. There, lest us hope, she will be judged not according to her deeds but her lights. She was a remarkable woman for an Indian, both physically and intellectually, being of regal height, and mentally far superior to raise her race. She was about fifty years old and known by every-body in the country. The victim of the white man's vices, she took early to hard drink, and had put enough whiskey inside her copper-colored skin to pass for a still. As an all-around fighter she had few equals and no superiors, being able to knock out any half dozen of her tribe and a few white men thrown in, when she got on her muscle, and was, in fact, a regular copper-colored cyclone from Celilo. But her battles and her bottles have been fought, and the end came in the jail which to her was about a home. The fierce, wild nature is stilled, and the moccasin-covered feet pointed skyward today in the undertaking rooms as she submitted, for the first time peacefully, to be sat upon. More sinned against than sinning, she has passed over to the whither, laid low by the wiles of her dusky brethren, two of whom life in jail awaiting examination. She was found last night about 8 o'clock at the corner of First and Washington streets by Watchman Connolly. At that time she was accusing an Indian of poisoning her, and in a few moments she fell to the sidewalk in convulsions. She claimed at that time two Indians had poisoned her, and the assertion seems to be borne out by her death which occurred in the jail an hour later. Poor old Caroline! Victim of circumstances and of surrounding. The earth in the Potter's field will open and close over her, the west wind will whisper through the pines, the night owl will hoot over her head; who, living, would not stand hooting from any one. The grand old Columbia will continue its dashings, the salmon will run yet again by Celilo, where first her infantile feet made dainty tracks in the sand, and where her baby teeth first met through the rich pinkness of the royal chinook. The seasons will come and go, the leaves will fall, and the zephyrs light out for Grant, but never, never again shall the red-forked lightning from the white man's still gurgle down that patrician neck; never, never shall hard cider bite nor Jamaica ginger deceive to her hurt, or favoring extracts and burning fluid seek to mingled in harmony beneath the mid-sections of her calico gown. The mightiest of her tribe has fallen, fallen, like Wilkins' Dinah, and besides, she is dead. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 9, 1895, page 3 MATRIMONIAL A very pretty wedding took place on Wednesday evening, August 7, 1895, that the home of Mr. and Mrs. O.B. Hartley, the contracting parties being Prof. Charles Wilson Greene of Palo Alto, Cal., and Miss Flora Rachel Hartley of Hood River, Oregon. The wedding was very quiet, only the immediate relatives of the happy couple being present. Rev. J.L. Hershner, pastor of the Congregational church, performed the ceremony, the beautiful and impressive ritual of the Episcopal Church being used by request. Promptly at 8 o'clock, the contracting parties entered the front parlor, while Mrs. O.B. Hartley presided at the organ, and taking their places surrounded with a bower of floral decorations, they pledged their troth, each with the other, observing the beautiful ring service. At the conclusion of the ceremony, congratulations were informally extended to the happy pair, after which a delicate supper, consisting of the dainties of the market, was served. Prof. Greene is a teacher in the department of physiology in Leland Stanford university, California. The bride was graduated by that institution in June, and will teach in the department of zoology the coming year. They will return to this famous institution of learning in time to resume their work in September. Happiness and prosperity abide with them.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 16, 1895, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" Nothing further has been learned of the three men who were seen to go down in their boat in the river below town during the hard blow Aug. 5th.

Cordes in San Francisco, January 16, 1886, and in the same year came with her husband to Hood River. Deceased leaves a husband and two children - a girl aged 7 and a boy 6 -- to mourn the loss of a good wife and true Christian mother. She has gone from her pain to a haven of rest, On the banks of the evergreen shore, Where the storms that beset her poor life here below Will darken her pathway no more. F.R.A. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 30, 1895, page 3 "Died" In Hood River, Tuesday, August 27, 1895, Walter Harvey Mayes, aged 13 years, 9 months and 7 days. Interment was in Idlewilde cemetery Wednesday, Rev. Criss Nickelsen conducting services. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 30, 1895, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" Walter Mayes, aged about 14, one of the boys who have been herding the town cows during the summer, died of typhoid fever Tuesday. About a month ago he was thrown from his pony and received injuries that at the time were not considered serious. But while suffering from the accident he was taken with typhoid, which caused his death. He was a worthy young fellow and his family have the sympathy of the community. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., September 6, 1895, page 3 "Born" In Hood River, September 3, 1895, to Mr. and Mrs. M.F. Sloper, a son. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., September 13, 1895, page 3 "Born" In Hood River valley, Sept. 13, 1895, to Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Morton, a ten-pound boy. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., September 20, 1895, page 3 "Died" In Hood River, September 18, 1895, Mrs. Lyman Smith, aged 57 years, 4 months and 28 days. Helen Jackson was born May 21, 1838, in Chemung, Chemung county, New York. Married to Lyman Smith on November 2, 1858. Mrs. Helen Smith was the mother of four children, three of whom survive her -- Mrs. Eleanor LaFrance, W. J. Smith and Dorrance Smith. In 1875, Mr. and Mrs. Lyman Smith, with their three children, came to Hood River with the company from Pennsylvania under the leadership of the lamented Rev. Parkhurst. Today, all who knew Mrs. Lyman Smith are full of grief at their personal loss, yet in their sadness they are conscious of the blessing her friendship brought to them, and that the influence she ever held in the community was one of the best factors in our pioneer settlement. Our hospitality had been so generous and her ministrations so numerous that it seemed as if the whole neighborhood owed her tribute, and to her may be applied the phrase, "To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die." One other characteristic things of Mrs. Smith's ways was her habit of anticipating a want, and for several winters, when the community united in worship in the school house near her home, she always, with her son's assistance, made the room comfortable for those who came from a distance. So quietly were her favors bestowed that, now she is gone as we reach recount them, we only wish she might know that we are richer in gratitude and quickened to deeds of service because she lived so well. She was a member of the Methodist church, and when there was no church in Hood River valley, she worked faithfully in the union Sunday school. Eight years ago she visited her friends in the East, and her memories of that visit lightened many an hour of weakness. Helen Jackson Smith had the faith to say, "I go to life, and not to death; From darkness to life's native sky; I go from sickness and from pain To health and immortality. Let our farewell then be tearless, Since I bid farewell to tears; Write this day of my departure Festive and your coming years."

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., September 20, 1895, page 3 IN MEMORY OF ELLIS MORSE Could tears and prayers have held him here, He had not passed away; Could love have bound him to our home, He had been ours today. But tears and prayers and love were vain The messenger to stay. Though wearily the day goes by, And drearily falls the night, And when the morning comes again, We do not bless the light; Though change, nor thought, nor earnest prayers, Bring back our lost delight. Still on this darkness of our grief, There shines a distant star, And Heaven's own luster makes it bright, E'en though it shines afar. Our sweet, loving little Ellis Is where the angels are. Pain never more shall shade his brow, Nor tears his beauteous eyes, Nor grief the pure and loving lips, Whose musical cries Are falling soft upon our ears, Like deaf words from the skies. Our Father, who in tender love, Hath taken from our care Little Ellis, our fond heart loved so much, Here this our earnest prayer -- Our loss, such wondrous gain to him, O, give us strength to bear.

McKAY The following account of the death of Mr. Thomas H. McKay is taken from the Port Townsend Leader of January 16th, and is published in full at the request of the family of deceased. Mr. McKay and family resided several years in this valley, on the farm now owned by Mr. John Sipma. They were universally respected, and the loss of the father will be mourned by his many friends here: One of the saddest deaths ever recorded in Port Townsend was that of Thomas H. McKay, which occurred a few minutes before 6 o'clock last evening at his home on Taylor street. Death was due directly to blood poisoning, superinduced by a surgical operation to relieve an abscess. Mr. McKay was under the care of a physician but a few days. Last Friday afternoon he returned from the country apparently well, but complained so much next day that the family physician, Dr. Lyall, was called in. An examination proved that the case was a serious one, and he was from that time given the best of medical attention and the most careful nursing. But the patient gradually grew worse, and on Tuesday Dr. Willison and Dr. Tucker were called in consultation. Later in the day Dr. Cobb was also called in. It was then decided to perform an operation, and this was done yesterday afternoon by the physicians mentioned. The patient scarcely rallied after the operation, although at times it seemed that he would. He passed peacefully away without again recognizing any of those around him. He had prepared for the worst and dictated his will just before submitting to the knife. Deceased was in active, energetic, Christian man in life, and his years were full of activity and push. He was born in Perth, Scotland, July 31, 1850. When three years of age he was brought by his parents to Nova Scotia, where he remained until he was 19, and was brought up in the railroad contacting business. In 1870 he was married and the following year came out to Oregon, coming here in the year 1887. While doing railroad work he operated in the different capacities of contractor, road master and superintendent, his most extensive operations in this line being in connection with the Grand Trunk line in Canada. He subsequently worked on the Wisconsin and Central, the O.R. and N., the Great Northern, the Northern Pacific and the Union Pacific as contractor or superintendent. At the time of his death he was interested in the development of what gives promise of being rich mining claims in British Columbia. He was the father of five children, three of whom are dead. The other two are his son, Thomas A., aged 17 at, and his daughter, Leona, aged 12. He leaves two sisters, one of whom has been employed in the department of the interior at Washington for a number of years. The other is living in Nova Scotia. Deceased was a member of the Methodist church of this place and also of the A.O.U.W. The funeral will be held under the auspices of the latter organization.

He was converted and united with the Methodist Episcopal church when a child. In 1843 he was married to Mary Ann Hilyer and moved to Wisconsin in 1845, living there 25 years. He moved to Iowa, and from there to Hood River valley ten years ago, where he lived until called to his reward. This strong, active man was a good steward in the church; a lover of camp meeting. His home has always been the preacher's home. It is anyone wonder that his children and grand children are all Christians and that his two sons are preaching the gospel which he so loved? His last days were triumphant; among his last words, "Jesus and glory." He leaves an aged wife, two sons and five daughters. One son preceded him to glory. His remains were followed to the grave by a large concourse of relatives and friends after a sermon preached by the writer from John, xiv., 2. FRANK L. JOHNS.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., July 17, 1896, page 2 AN INDIAN FUNERAL Sacred to the memory of the relatives of Hood River Jim. Hood River, Oregon, July 10, 1896. On the above date the undersigned attended the solemn and somewhat elaborate transfer and consignment to Mother Earth of the mortal remains of 21 "children of the forest." Infancy and age were represented. They were removed from Memaloose island, a burial place in the Columbia river, dating back in the misty past, perhaps, to the foundation of the world. Seventeen squaws and eight red men participated in the event. The grave was in readiness, but we assisted in making a rude coffin, 2 feet deep, 3 feet wide and 6 feet long, of rough boards. A new quilt was spread into this receptacle, extending up and over the sides; next a large new blanket, then two gaudily colored blankets, and then a pure white spread of some cotton goods. But two bodies remained intact, an adult woman and an infant. These were wrapped in brilliant textures and laid first in the soft bed already prepared; then five skulls of grown people were deposited in a row at the head, each being enveloped in a richly colored silk handkerchief. The bones and the parts of the bodies which had returned to dust were distributed wherever space could be found; the minor trinkets belongings of the dead, such as beads, stones, knives, rings and toys, were placed with them. The Indian frequently places into the mouth of the dead, "chickamum" (money). On asking one of the relatives what induced them to remove their dead, we received the reply that the "Boston man" desecrated the graves of the Indians for the purpose of obtaining relics as mementos and the money they sometimes find. While the men were engaged in preparing for the burial, one woman had a lot of calico which she was very busy and measuring off in sections preparatory to distribution amongst the relative. Quilts, blankets, shells, calico and handkerchiefs were bestowed, each Indian receiving a gift. Twenty-five Indians were present, 17 of which were females, and at that juncture "Earth to earth, dust to dust," they filed past the open grave and each went through the ceremony of depositing a handful of earth upon the rude coffin. They also indulged in a wild, inarticulate, plaintive cadence which caused a thrill of melancholy to travel through our souls. Tears filled the furrows worn in ancient faces: "Rachel weeping for her children and would not be comforted, because they are not." These dissolving forms now quietly rest in Oak Grove cemetery.

While going into camp at Chenowith creek, three miles west of The Dalles, they heard the noise of a runaway. Looking up in the direction of The Dalles, they saw a horse and cart dashing towards them. They stopped the horse and found a young girl that had been dragged all the way from town, and who died in Mr. Boorman's arms soon after he had picked her up. The girl proved to be the daughter of Mr. Paul Kreft, and was about 15 years of age. The horse shied just before crossing the Mill creek bridge, and the wheel struck a rock and threw out two younger sisters of the unfortunate girl. Her foot caught between one of the shafts and a brace to the shaft and she was dragged the whole distance of three miles in that position.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., October 9, 1896, page 3 IN MEMORY OF MRS. ANNIE RICH [Selected.] The spirit hath flown to the Receiver; and lo! that recipient of the spirit is some aerial world, an oasis midway on the desert space, separating earth from heaven. O Death, what art thou? A lawgiver that never altereth, fixing the consummating seal whereby the deeds of life become established; a stern and silent usher, leading to the judgment for eternity after the trial scene of Time; a husbandman that reapeth always, out of season as in season, with the sickle on his hand. O Death, what art thou? Nurse of dreamless slumbers; freshening the fevered flesh to a wakefulness eternal; antitype of Nature's marvels; the calm, safe anchorage, thou spot of gelid shade, after the hot-breathed desert. How full of dread, how full of hope loometh inevitable Death -- the dread is drowned in joy, the hope is filled with immortality. B.B.

Resolved, That as a society we shall hold her name in grateful remembrance, and to our sisters say, Regard the example of her as one of worthy of imitation. Resolved, That while the friends weep for their earthly companion and we mingle our tears with theirs, we in our lesser grief can say to the afflicted ones: The dove with its emblem of peace will surely return to you in this your said affliction. Resolved, That out of respect to our departed sister, the charter of our chapter be draped in mourning for 30 days. Resolved, That these resolutions be spread upon the records of this chapter, a copy sent to the family of the deceased sister, and a copy to the Hood River GLACIER for publication. We loved thee, sister, oh! how much; Our love there's none can tell. But Death, the spoiler, came and took Her whom we loved so well. Thy husband dear will miss thee most, Thy child will share his gloom; They fondly hoped that thou wouldst cheer Their pathway to the tomb. We miss thee in the "Star," Thy place is vacant there. Thy neighbors feel that one is gone Whose loss we all must share. Then weep no more for sister gone, Eternal bliss to share; So live that we, when life is o'er, May meet our loved one's there.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., October 30, 1896, page 3 Lines in memory of Muriel Husbands, departed this life Friday, September 25, 1896, at Mosier, Oregon. Once more Death has called us to mourn over an angel of God. Little Muriel, the pride and jewel of the household, has been called to heaven to claim her reward. Shall we weep for her departed spirit? No, we shall not weep. The Angel of Death came and little Muriel was welcomed into heaven, where her Heavenly Father was waiting to welcome her. It would be cruel to call her back to this wicked world to grieve over sorrow and trouble while she is sweetly resting in Jesus. God knows best. She, as pure and spotless as snow, is numbered among the angels, sweetly resting in the arms of her Savior. With saddened hearts we gathered 'Round the form of one so fair; An angel of God that was taken from earth To dwell in heaven so fair. With sorrowing hearts we laid her to rest -- Parents and friends most dear; We bid her farewell, her spotless form, An angel who has taken its flight. Call not back the departed, The treasure and chief most dear; In heaven she's waiting to greet again The friends she has left here. In heaven she's sweetly resting, With angels bright and fair. Her crown is a crown of whiteness, In her hand a harp of gold. A FRIEND. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., October 30, 1896, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" George M. Wilson, brother of John A.

After leaving the old home at Blooming Grove, he learned the trade of millwright. In 1852 he came to Oregon by way of the isthmus of Panama and worked at his trade at Silverton, Salem and other places. He was married to Mrs. Polly L. Coon at Silverton, Sept. 27, 1885. An only son, Eugene, now resides at Bonner, Montana. He became a step-father to Cornelia and Thomas Coon. Besides these children, their cousin, Ida Hutton, became, in infancy, a member of the family, and all shared equally his affection and consideration. He was a charter member of Chemeketa lodge, I.O.O.F., at Salem, and for many years took an active part in temperance work, being a charter member of Capital Lodge, No. 11, I.O.G.T. Always unassuming, it was his habit to perform every duty with the utmost faithfulness. He was governed by his sense of duty. He practiced virtue, and his virtues were many. A more honest man never lived. In his exercise of self-sacrifice, of patience, forbearance and charity, he was a remarkable man. He was generous to the extreme, and in all things which go to make up true manhood he had few peers. A grateful step-son would pay this just tribute to a good man. THOMAS R. COON.

BERGER ILLICILLEWART, B.C., Nov. 18, 1896 - EDITOR GLACIER: We have had a terrible accident here in which one of your old citizens, Charles Berger, met a swift and awful death. Mr. Berger and Chris Miller went out about nine miles from here to do some work in a mine which is being opened up. They were last seen on Monday, Nov. 9th. There was then three boxes of dynamite in the cabin. A heavy shot was heard that evening at dusk. On Wednesday the cabin was blown to atoms. Search parties have been out almost all the time since and have succeeded in finding parts of the body of Miller but nothing has been found that can be identified as part of Mr. Berger. The family is with us here and they are bearing up bravely in their terrible trouble. Mr. Berger was respected by all who knew him here, and his wife and children have our sincerest and most practical sympathy. H.L. LOVERING.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., December 25, 1896, page 2 DROWNING OF CARL WOOD AND I.W. DEITRICH. A frightful accident happened on Hood river last Monday, which resulted in the drowning of Carl Wood and I. W. Deitrich. A boat was built at the Davenport Bros. saw mill to be used as a ferry boat at the point where the Improvement company is building the bridge to carry the flume across the river. Deitrich had built the boat, which was 18 feet long, 18 inches deep and about four feet in width. While the boat was being built there was considerable dispute among the men of the works as to whether it would be safe for a party of men to undertake to navigate the boat in the swift waters to where the bridge is being built, half a mile below the mill. Some contended that the boat could not be managed in the treacherous stream, while others thought there was no danger. Three men, C.A. Bell, Carl Wood and I. W. Deitrich, volunteered to steer the boat to its destination. All were familiar with the river, and as they shoved into the stream, had no thought of danger. They had not proceeded far till the boat struck a rock and went to pieces in the angry current of the river. Mr. Bell managed to gain the shore, but the other two men were drowned. Their bodies were seen floating down past where men were at work on the bridge. The accident happened about 1 o'clock in the afternoon, and a search was at once begun for the bodies. Some time after night Deitrich's body was found by Mike and Frank Neff, at the Divers place, about three miles below where the boat was wrecked. Mr. Bell and Bruce Lindsay brought the body to S.E. Bartmess' undertaking rooms at 12 o'clock Monday night. A watch found in Deitrich's pockets showed that the watch stopped and the accident occurred at 16 minutes past 1 o'clock. The body of Carl Wood was found Tuesday forenoon, lodged on an island just below R. Pealer's place. It was discovered by Joseph A. Wilson, Will Langille and William Graham, who had followed up the river from town on the east side, while another search party followed up the west side. Trees were cut to make a foot-log on which to reach the island, but as they failed to strike in the right place as to be of benefit, Will Langille waded to the island. A rope was thrown from the party on the west bank, and the body was hauled to shore. John Kroeger went for his team and hauled the body to the house of Wm. Slingerland, when it was dressed and taken to the home of his parents Wednesday morning. Funeral services over the remains of both men were held Wednesday afternoon and they were buried in Idlewilde cemetery. Carl Wood was a young man, unmarried, 23 years of age. He was a member of the saw mill and flume company of Davenport Bros. His parents, Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Wood, reside in the Odell neighborhood, on the East Side. He is highly spoken of by all who knew him as being a very worthy young man. I.W. Deitrich had been in the employ of Davenport Bros. for some time and was also known by the name of W.W. Edgerman. His age was 52. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., December 25, 1896, page 3 IN LOVING REMEMBRANCE OF BESSIE MILLER We watched her breathing through the night, Her breathing soft and low. As in her breast the wave of life Kept ebbing to and fro. So silently we spoke her name, So softly moved about; As we had lent her half our powers To eke her being out. But when the morn came, still and sad, And chill with early showers, Her quiet eyelids closed, and she had Another morn than ours. Sleep sweetly, Bessie, dear in your haven of rest Where all is peace and love; And though the body slumbers here, The soul is safe in heaven above.

Baker, Rogers The Hood River Glacier, Hood River,OR., August 27, 1897, page 3 LINES COMPOSED ON THE DEATH OF AMY ROGERS By Her Mother, M.A. Rogers Come, all my friends and neighbors dear, The death of Amy Rogers hear, Almighty God, inspire my heart That I may act the poet's part. Through pain and sorrow she did wade, Which caused her gradually to fade; At length the solemn day commenced When Amy Rogers must go hence. On June the eighth, as noon drew near, The happy spirit did appear To waft her soul to God on high, To dwell with him eternally. And then her spirit quickly fled, And her body rests among the dead; Her happy soul in realms of love, To live with God in heaven above. Oh, who can tell how our hearts did swell When Amy bid us all farewell, And left a sorrowful world behind, With all her friends both dear and kind! Now she has gone to heaven above, To sail in free unbounded love; The golden street she now explores, Where parting scenes are known no more. No more to bid her friends farewell, But with the saints in heaven to dwell; The wonders of redeeming love That took her soul to heaven above. Oh, loving friends, now do not mourn, Though she is from your bosom torn; Her ransomed spirit is set free To join the white-robed company. Admiring angels view the sight -- That lovely form in raiment white; With golden palms upon her hands, Safe in that fair celestial land. Oh, sinners, hear her warning voice And make religion now your choice; She speaks to you though she is dead -- Prepare in time to meet your God.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., January 21, 1898, page 3 BODY IDENTIFIED On the 7th of October last, George Alleck and Edwin Thomas, Indians, found the body of a man floating in the river below town. The coroner was summoned and an inquest failed to identify the body. Pockets cut open and bruises on the head showed that the man had been murdered and thrown into the river.

He was 62 years old and an old settler in Eastern Oregon, having for years been the proprietor of the Meacham toll road, and was well known.

Yes, our darling Maggie left us For a brighter home above, Where sickness never enters, Nor parting never comes. Oh! How hard it is to part With one we loved so well; But was our Father called her home; We must bow before his will. Folded the snow-white fingers, Dimmed are those laughing eyes; But robed in glory now she treads The palace of the skies. There, where life's work is ended, And our labor all is done, She will bid us welcome, Were death can never come. Dear father, mother, brother, sister, do not weep, She has gone to her long last rest; Her life was full of suffering, And God on high knows best. CARRIE BAILEY Hood River, February 12, 1898.

May 28, 1897, she was married to Mr. Lyman Smith, long a resident of Hood River and now residing at a Astoria. Two months ago Mrs. Smith was taken ill and came up from Astoria to Hood River, hoping to regain her health among the health-giving hills where she had spent so many days in vigorous womanhood. But fate ruled otherwise. Physicians pronounced her malady cancer of the stomach. She was taken to Portland, where specialists could do nothing for her, and she returned to Hood River to die. Mrs. Smith was a true hearted Christian woman, loved by all who knew her. She did much for charity in her quiet way, and many friends outside of her immediate relatives will mourn the loss of this noble woman. She leaves a sorrowing husband; an adopted son, Wm. Haynes; a grandson, Bruce Morton, 12 years old, and three sisters. Deceased was a profound Christian and a member of the M.E. church. Rev. J. T.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., July 22, 1898, page 2 THREE INDIANS DROWNED GRAND DALLES, Wash., July 14, 1898, -- Editor Glacier: Three children belonging to Bill Calwash, a Tum-Water Indian, were drowned in the rapids today, nearly opposite Seufert Bros.' cannery. One was a girl about 18, one a boy of 12, the other a baby about a year old. Five of them had gone in a boat to visit some Indians on a fish scow and were returning across the big eddy when the boat was caught in a swirl and sucked under. Two boys came up about 30 feet from the bluffs and swam in and were rescued, but the other three did come up. Calwash is nearly distracted and has gone down the river, hoping the bodies of his children will come to the surface and he can get them. He wanted me to write to residents along the river to get them if seen, and he will pay for any service. It occurred to me if it were published in the GLACIER it would become generally known in your locality, where bodies of persons drowned here are most often seen floating, and if you will kindly make an item of it and notify me if the bodies are found, it will be a favor.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 5, 1898, page 3 OBITUARY Emiline Allen Hodge, known to a large circle of neighbors and friends as Grandma Hodge, was born at Litchfield, Conn. Sept. 28, 1807, and died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Dr. Barrett, Hood River, Or., on July 29, 1898. She spent the most of her long and happy life at the place of her birth and at Jefferson, Ohio, coming to Hood River when an elderly lady, yet was given many years here in peace and quietude. For husband died in 1892, they having enjoyed the almost unprecedented period of 64 years of married life, sharing each others joys and sorrows, defeats and successes. Nine children were born to this union, of whom only three remain. Two children met their death by accidental drowning at the same time, in 1840, when the fond mother exhibited a sense of complete resignation. Indeed all her life, from her 18th year when she became a member of the Baptist church, she reposed in calm confidence upon God, being conscious of His love and strength and the varied experiences in life, and never murmuring with his dealings. In the lengthening declining period of her life she was blessed with unusual cheerful and happy surroundings in the home of her daughter, Mrs. Barrett, to which, by her unimpaired faculties of mind and saintly qualities of soul, she contributed much of the good and Divine, so that she will be greatly missed. It seemed to be a special guidance that brought her son, Mr. F.A. Hodge from his home in Pueblo, Col., to visit his aged mother three or four days before her death. Another son lives at Buffalo, N.Y. Funeral services were conducted at the home of Dr. Barrett on last Saturday, after which she was laid to rest in the family cemetery beside her husband.

Prather, J.P., and acting coroner of Wasco county, Oregon, to inquire into the cause of death of the body of deceased now before us, find that the name of deceased was Homer Houghton; his age about 21; height about 5 feet 8 inches; weight about 150 pounds; fair complexion, blue eyes, dark hair; that he came to his death by accidental drowning while bathing in the slough opposite Mason's camp, on the O.R. & N., near railroad bridge No. 117, on the afternoon of Sunday, September 18, 1898."

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., October 7, 1898, page 3 READ OF HIS OWN DEATH Mr. Fred Hertz will make final proof on his homestead at The Dalles land office next month. Mr. Hertz about three years ago had an experience that not often happens. He read of his own death and was mourned by his friends as having crossed the dark river. The circumstances of his reported death were as follows: He had met with an accident in a saw mill and received injuries to his head which caused a loss of memory, and he sometimes was unable to recognize acquaintances. Realizing that something was wrong with him, without saying anything to his friends he decided to go to Portland and consult the advice of physicians. None of his acquaintances saw him leave, but the last seen of him he was sitting on a rock on the river bank near Viento. A few days after his disappearance the body of a man was found washed ashore on a point of land some distance below Viento, on the opposite side of the river. Some of his most intimate acquaintances pronounced the find the body of Fred Hertz. Hertz read of his death in the Oregonian. After spending a few days in Portland he went to California and placed himself under the care of the skilled doctors in the asylum at Stockton. The doctors trepanned his skull and he got well. On returning to Hood River he found that his old neighbors had believed the report of his death. His cabin had been broken into and all his personal property, including a kit of millwright tools, and even the top of his cook stove, was carried off. His trip to California cost him $500, but he will never begrudge the money, as he is now a sound man and his memory is as good as ever.

In Portland, where he held meetings on the streets, before the advent of the Salvation Army, he was considered a religious crank. With Gen. Howard he organized the Y.M.C.A. in Portland.

Clark to Miss Annie Mercer, one of Hood River's most esteemed young ladies, at the M.E. church on last Saturday evening, was a matter of general interest to the community. The church had been beautifully decorated with flowers, vines and autumn leaves, and immediately after the close of the evening service, while a march was played by the organist, the bride and groom entered. The audience room, though ample in, was unequal to the accommodation of the many friends and acquaintances who had gathered to witness the ceremony and bid the young couple bon voyage through life. The bride was dressed in taste appropriate for the occasion, and after the words were spoken by the pastor which made them one, they retired without delay. A number of intimate friends followed to the home of the bride's mother to tender their congratulations. A little later at the depot another crowd awaited the east-bound train. There was pleasantries, there was rice, there was good wishes in abundance, but the train bore away all the interest and the crowds scattered to their homes. Young Mr. and Mrs. Clark are to make their home in Stevenson, where he has business interests. Life opens fair before them. May the future fulfill all that the present promises is the heart-felt wish of their many friends. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., October 28, 1898, page 2 In the death of Mrs. Polly Price, one of the brightest and most intelligent of Oregon's pioneer women passes away. She was a most lovable woman and well known throughout the state. Many of those who knew her in her younger days will drop a tear to her memory when they read of her death. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., October 28, 1898, page 2 OBITUARY Polly L. Price was born at Alfred, N.Y., Nov. 24, 1825, and departed this life at Salem, Oregon, Oct. 21, 1898. On her father's side she was descended in the fifth generation from the celebrated John Crandall, who was associated with Roger Williams, Samuel Gorton and others and held many offices of trust and responsibility. He was one of a committee to draft the famous letter presented to "his highness and councell of England, asking for protection against the hostile efforts of the other colonies of New England insisting that Rhode Island should prevent the quakers from having their liberty amongst us, as entertayned into our houses or into any of our assemblies." In religious matters he was not less prominent, being an associate with Dr. John Clarke, and was himself a minister. John Crandall married Elizabeth, the daughter of Samuel Gorton, a cultured, independent, somewhat eccentric and influential character who supported from the beginning the other founders of Rhode Island in holding their lands west of Narragansett Bay. To John and Elizabeth Crandall were born five sons, Joseph, the third son, was pastor of the Newport church for twenty years. Phineas was one of the younger sons of Joseph Crandall. Silas, the eldest son of Phineas, settled at Waterford and was a sea captain. With two brothers he was owner of the fishing smack Lucy, which was shot to pieces by a British vessel in the war of 1812. Paul, a younger son of Silas, was born in Connecticut, in 1802, and enjoyed superior advantages of instruction in Boston, Mass. Paul married Sally Stillman and settled in Allegheny county, N.Y. To them the first born was Polly, the subject of this sketch. Paul Crandall at an early day settled in Rock county, Wis., and as stated by the author of Fathers of Wisconsin, "at once took a prominent position among the people then striving to build up a new country. In 1847, Mr. Crandall was elected as a member of the constitutional convention from the county of Rock." "He was one of the substantial and useful members of the convention, highly esteemed by his associates. After state organization Mr. Crandall was elected to the second state assembly." Paul Crandall, with most of his children, came across the plains to Oregon in 1852, settling in Marion county, where he died in 1889. Early in life, Polly Crandall united with the Seventh Day Baptist church of Alfred, N.Y. Here, as a school-mate, she became acquainted with Thomas L. Coon, to whom she was married in Wisconsin Jan. 1, 1845. In 1850 Mr. Coon and a brother, Clarke P. Crandall, went to California and Oregon, and Mr. Coon located a claim at the present site of Silverton, at which place he died, Jan. 10, 1854. On Sept. 27, 1855, Polly Crandall Coon was married to Stephen Price, who departed this life Sept. 25, 1896. Of the two children of the first marriage, Cornelia died April 8, 1868, and Thomas lives at Hood River, Oregon. Of the second marriage an only son, Eugene C. Price, lives in Butte, Montana. All the sisters have been many years deceased. Of the brothers, Clarke P. Crandall died at Atlantic City in 1893. R.W. Crandall of The Dalles died Nov. 19, 1896. The two surviving brothers are D.W. Crandall of Portland, Or., and Luke Crandall of Victor, Colorado. As a pioneer woman of Oregon, Mrs. Price was ever active in an all good works. Hundreds of grown up children will remember her earnest work as teacher in Salem, Portland and The Dalles. Hers was a life well spent, given for the good of others.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., November 4, 1898, page 3 FATAL ACCIDENT Our community was startled the last Saturday by a most distressing run-away accident, which resulted in the death of Mrs. J. J. Gibbons. She was driving to town in a road cart, accompanied by her little son, about 10 years old. When coming down the school house hill, the boy, who was driving, espied a horseshoe in the road. He stopped the horse and jumped out of the cart to pick up the horseshoe, taking the lines with him as he jumped from the cart. Thoughtlessly, he let go of the lines, which fell under the wheels of the cart, and as the horse moved a few steps forward the lines jerked him back and he commenced to rare up and kick and started to run. Mrs. Gibbons was thrown out of the cart and struck violently on the side of her face and head. The injured woman was carried into the residence of Dr. Shaw, who was absent, and Dr. Watt was sent for, who immediately answered the call and found on his arrival that the woman was dead. The doctors said she was killed instantly. Deceased was a most estimable woman and universal sorrow is expressed over the sad occurrence. She leaves a husband and five children, the youngest a daughter six years old. One son is a volunteer soldier in the Second Oregon at Manila. Another son died last than two months ago.

When a child she moved with her parents to Alexandria, Va., where she lived until a young lady, when the family made St. Louis, Mo., their home. Here she was united in marriage to her bereft husband, John J. Gibbons, in 1870. In 1878 they came to the Pacific coast, where they have since lived. Mrs. Gibbons was a devoted wife and mother and a kind neighbor, possessing unselfish and noble qualities of character that greatly endeared her to a large circle of acquaintances. A husband and five children, one of whom is in Manila, will greatly miss the fond place in the home that was so suddenly made vacant. Funeral services were held in the Valley Christian church on Monday, Rev. J. L. Hershner conducting them, after which the body was laid to rest in Idlewilde cemetery.

BATEHHAM An item reached us just after going to press last week, telling, what few in Hood River were aware of, that Mrs. A.P.

A tender plant is given into the family whose tendrils go out and intertwine themselves about the heart of each member; suddenly and almost without warning they are torn away, leaving the home desolate and the hearts torn and bleeding. Little "Dottie" made a place for herself that can never be filled, and there are wounded hearts which only time can heal. Our loss is her gain, "The child of our adoption" is only transplanted. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., January 20, 1899, page 3 DEATH OF GEORGE C. JONES, JR. Appleton, Wis., Daily Post, Jan. 9, 1899 Friends of the deceased, and that of the family of which he was a member, have been very much shocked today to hear of the death last night of George C. Jones, jr., son of George C. Jones, and a brother of Dr. F. W. Jones and E. G. Jones. Death was the result of a stroke of paralysis sustained at about 6 o'clock last evening. The young man lingered until 12:30 o'clock when the spirit took its departure. George Jones had been away from home for the past eight years, having been located in Oregon, where he was engaged in looking after large tracts of timber land, making his headquarters at Hood River and White Salmon. For many years he had not been in rugged health, and his going to the west in the first place, was as much as anything in the hope that the outdoor life which he expected to lead would be of benefit to him. Yesterday afternoon George went downtown twice, once at about three o'clock and again at about five o'clock, and it was shortly after his return from the second trip that he was stricken down. His brother E.G. Jones came home with him, and noticed that he seemed to be weaker than usual. Upon arriving home he said he would have lunch and would then retire. He sat down at the dinner table with his father, but had scarcely commenced to take nourishment when his head was drawn to one side and his father noticed that he was about to fail. He was unconscious from this time to the end and medical skill was unable to do anything for him. The deceased was in his thirty-ninth year. He was a graduate from Lawrence university in 1883.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., December 15, 1899, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" A young woman named Pearl Hamilton, aged 16, died in a Portland hospital on Tuesday of appendicitis, and her remains were brought to Hood River on Wednesday and buried in Idlewilde cemetery. She was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Hamilton of Viento. She took sick Dec. 7th, was taken to Portland on the 10th, when an operation was performed, and died on the 12th. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., December 22, 1899, page 2 TWO WRECKS In the year 1891 two young men came to Dufur from Fresno, Calif., in search of work. Both were well dressed and bore the marks of good breeding and education in their countenances. One was a skilled jeweler and had a set of jeweler's tools with him. They easily secured temporary employment, but the first day one was taken ill. His friend had him taken to shelter and for several days provided for his sick companion by sacrificing trinkets of his own. The sick man was removed to a hotel and had the best of medical skill and nursing, his companion hardly leaving his side for necessary rest, but all to no avail for in a little over a week Ed Albaugh died in his friend's arms and lies buried in the cemetery over the hill. Pride would not allow the survivor to have his dead friend buried at the expense of strangers, so he sold his own jeweler's tools and all personal belongings to pay expenses of the illness and funeral. This man who showed so much nobleness of character was D.R. Carmichael, the same D.R. Carmichael who last week attempted to take the $275 from the dead body of his mother who was drowned at the wreck of the Weeott at Humbolt Bar, Calif., and ordered her buried without expense. It is a sad story that ___ in the last seven years of the lives of this young man and his mother, a story seldom equaled in the complete ruination of a noble man by alcohol or the devotion of a loving mother for an erring son. Those who have watched the curtain rise and fall on the different acts of this tragedy do not know all, but they know this noble woman gave up her elegant home and family in Nebraska and spent the last four or five years and all her fortune in the effort to save her boy. From the bright business man of eight years ago, whose good qualities, drunk or sober, kept friends about him, young, Carmichael became a "whiskey fiend" whom all recognized to be beyond reformation except his mother, the nursed him out of delirium and took him repeatedly to out of the way places, away from temptation; at one time purchasing a home in Hood River valley and keeping him there a year or more. This last and fatal trip on the Weeott is supposed to have been taken by this poor woman to find a new home for her inebriate son, and when the vessel went to pieces on the jetty and the unfortunate woman was drowned, this wreck of a once noble manhood, who had sold his belongings to bury his friend, attempted to rob the body of his dead mother who had given up home, fortune and life for him -- attempted to take her purse, containing $275, and ordered her body thrown into a box and buried without expense. This is not as a warning to drinking men; such rails never serve as a warning; it is simply one of the last scenes in the life of a man who "could drink whiskey or let it alone, just as he desired," or thought he could when we first met him. - Dufur Dispatch. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., December 22, 1899, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" The two-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Hackett died last Sunday in Portland, where it was taken last Thursday by its parents and Dr. Watts.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., January 12, 1900, page 2 OBITUARY Perry G. Barrett, M.D., to died at his home in Hood River valley, on Sunday evening, January 7, 1900, was born at Kingsville, Ohio, July 27, 1830. Age at time of death was 69 years, 5 months, and 10 days. He was the second son of a family of 8 children, six sons and two daughters. His eldest brother survives him at Buffalo, New York. At the early age of 16, Dr. Barrett taught in the village school of his native town and continued his profession of teaching several years, when he entered a medical institution at Buffalo, N.Y., where he received the degree of M.D. He then went to Kansas where he practiced his profession until the war broke out, when he returned to Ohio. There being a demand for a larger medical staff in the army, Gov. Todd gave him the appointment of assistant surgeon; his ability and faithfulness soon earned for him a promotion to the position of a commissioned army surgeon, in which capacity he loyally served his country until the close of the war. In 1866 Dr. Barrett was united in marriage to Miss Alameda H. Hodge, his bereft companion, at Jefferson, Ohio. After their marriage they located at Erie, Pa., where they embarked in business. Losing all their property by fire in 1870, they came to Oregon in 1971, settling on the farm which has since been their home. Dr. Barrett followed the practice of his profession until about six years ago, since which time he lived a quiet and retired life at his country home. His kindly disposition, lofty sense of honor and integrity, noble devotion to high principles of life, secured for him a warm place in the sections of a large circle of neighbors and friends, to whom he bequeaths a name untarnished, and an influence that will always abide. Dr. Barrett was largely instrumental in bringing about the organization of the first Congregational church of Hood River valley, and he remained true to his religious convictions until the last. He was a man who was well read, well informed on general topics, and had one of the best, if not the best, private libraries into the valley. A most devoted husband, and loving father, he will be greatly missed in his home of such comfortable appointments. His estimable wife, who so heroically bears the loss of a loving, life long companion, receives the warm sympathy of a large circle of friends. Funeral services will be conducted at the family residence, on Friday morning at 10:30 o'clock. Rev. J. L. Hershner will make the address. The Masonic fraternity, of which Dr. Barrett was a member, will conduct their ritual service at the grave in Idlewilde cemetery. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., January 12, 1900, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" Hervey M. Cook died at his home in Portland, Jan. 4, 1900, aged 21 years, 11 months and 10 days.

The afflicted family have the sympathy of their old neighbors in Hood River in their bereavement. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., January 12, 1900, page 3 THE SUDDEN DEATH OF DR. BARRETT The sudden death of Dr. Barrett, Sunday, Jan. 7, 1900, which shocked the entire community, was the cause of heart rendering scenes when the great loss was made known to the bereaved wife and grandchildren. He had gone to the barn to do the evening chores, and not returning as soon as usual, Mrs. Barrett requested Miss Clara Hinrichs to see what detained him. She found him in a sitting position by the barn, and knowing Mrs. Barrett's weakness, immediately ran to B.F. Shoemaker's. Mrs. Shoemaker sent for her husband and J.H. Shoemaker and started with Miss Hinrichs for Dr. Barretts. Mrs. Shoemaker tried, by changing the position of the doctor, to see if there was any hope of resuscitation. B.F. and J.H. Shoemaker were soon assisting, and being satisfied that life was extinct, tried to persuade Mrs. Shoemaker to go to the house and inform Mrs. Barrett, a task from which she shrank, realizing how completely Mrs. Barrett relied on the doctor and her devotion to him. The two little grandchildren, twin boys, who had come to the scene, precipitated matters by going to the house but Mr. Shoemaker went with them and then returned to the body with Mrs. Barrett. Her distress and that of the children was pitiable. Dr. Brosius, who was sent for in haste, gave the stricken wife the comforting assurance that death had been painless, and that he had not been dead many minutes before he was found. The doctor's business affairs had been arranged in anticipation of such a sudden end, but the people of the valley were entirely unprepared for their irreparable loss.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., March 9, 1900, page 3 "Born" In Hood River valley, March 7, 1900, to Mr. and Mrs. Carl Gilmore, a son. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., March 16, 1900, page 3 "Died" Amanda C. Blount passed into the spirit world from Mount Moriah, Mo., on the 7th of March, 1900, at the home of her youngest daughter, Amelia B. Green, retaining her mental faculties to the last. Amanda Colwell Lathrop was born in Oneida county, New York, June 26, 1812; was united in marriage to Platt Blount, Oct. 11, 1834, and moved to Wisconsin in the year 1840, settling at Milwaukee, and after the state was admitted to the union, moved near Madison, the capital, thus being one of the pioneers of this growing commonwealth. In 1869 the family removed to Mount Moriah, Mo., where her husband died April 16, 1886. She lived a few years in Hood River, Oregon, where she added to her long list of friends who were ever held by her in pleasant remembrance. But though she so admired the beauty of scenery and enjoyed the mildness of climate, yet her affection seemed ever to hover around the spot where her loved one sleeps and where her life work seemed to culminate. How many years of her life were spent in ministering to the suffering of others, only her own family know, though there are many living witnesses who hold her in loving and grateful remembrance, believing that they owe their lives to her care and nursing. She gave herself up to serve the suffering with an unselfishness that belied her statement that selfishness was the main spring of human action. The survivors of her family are Jerold L. and Luke D. Blount, Agnes M. Cunning and Amelia B. Green. Her mental faculties were peculiarly gifted, and as a conversationalist she excelled when in the company of congenials. Life was ever real to her, and while she seemed at times sprightly and brilliant, the trend of her thoughts was to seek the unknown, always, however, using the light of reason as the principle guide, though she would seek light from many promising source. She talked freely of the future life, and though at times appeared to grope in uncertainty, yet generally her faith was radiant with hope. She did not dread death but shrank from the suffering attendant, and often wished she could sleep and awaken to life immortal. She loved the beautiful of the earth -- the flowers, the trees, the light of day and the thousands of suns of night, but more of all she loved the many bright spots from the printed pages of earth's wise and good. These she thought she would never be separated from, and though burdened as she had been during the last few years of her life by infirmities of age, she would repeat in thought and spirit these words of the poet: "Shall I lay down to sleep, and see no more The splendid pageantry of earth and sky -- The procession of the stars sweep by; The white moon sway the sea, and wash the shore; The morning lark to the far heaven soar; The nightingale with the soft dusk draw nigh; The summer roses bud, and bloom, and die -- Will life and life's delight for me be o're? "Nay, I shall be in my low silent home, Of all earth's gracious ministries aware -- Glad with the gladness of the risen day Yet done with striving, and foreclosed of care; At rest -- at rest. What better thing to say?" T.J.C. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., March 16, 1900, page 3 "Born" In Hood River valley, March 13, 1900, to Mr. and Mrs. H.L. Gaston, a son.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., May 18, 1900, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" The newly-married couples on Lyman Smith avenue were liberally serenaded. Rolly Phelps got off easy by setting up the cigars for the boys. But Jim Kaiser was not so fortunate. The serenaders took his place by storm Sunday night. By promising to get some whiskey by next evening he got them to let up on the "music" they made with the horse fiddle and tin pans. Before the next evening he repented of his rash promises to get the whiskey. Not been a drinking man himself he thought it would be right to buy whiskey for others. The boys came back Monday night, and when they found he had failed to procure the whiskey they bombarded his house with everything that would make a racket, beat the sides of it with scanting and yelled in a manner that would make a Comanche Indian take a back seat. Jim finally promised to raise $1.50 next day and leave it at one of the stores in town to treat the crowd, and the boys left. Jim says the next time he gets married he will go to some country -- Arkansas, for instance - where the usages of the dark ages, like the charivari, are out of date.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., May 25, 1900, page 2 TRAGEDY AT TROUT LAKE The startling intelligence reached Hood River Monday of the death of Miss Ida Foss at Trout Lake at that hands of Ben Wagnitz. Miss Foss was teaching school at Trout Lake and boarded at the home of Mrs. Wagnitz. Sunday evening, May 20th, Miss Foss and Ben Wagnitz were left alone in the house, while the young man's mother and brother were at the corral milking. Upon their return to the house they found young Wagnitz lying dead in the yard and Ms. Foss dead in the house. Investigation showed that the young woman had been shot through the heart and that Wagnitz picked her up, laid her on a bed, examined her wound, covered it with cloths and the body with a blanket, and then went outside the house and shot himself. It is supposed the young couple had had a lover's quarrel, but no one was present, and no one knows the real cause of the tragedy nor how with happened. Miss Foss was born and raised in Hood River, where her parents reside. She was an educated and accomplished young woman, and the news of her awful death cast a gloom over the whole community. Ben Wagnitz was a young man, 26 years old, generally respected in the community at Trout Lake, where he had lived for years. He was a mountain guide at Mt. Adams, and when at home made himself useful by helping his mother on the ranch. The funeral of Ms. Foss was held from the residence of S.E. Bartmess, Wednesday, and was attended by a large concourse of the friends of other young woman and the family.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., May 25, 1900, page 3 "Born" In Hood River valley, May 21, 1900, to Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Baker, a daughter. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., June 1, 1900, page 2 LAST TRIBUTE TO MISS FOSS A genuine gloom was cast over this entire community when it learned of the awful tragedy which deprived us of one of our most highly-cherished daughters. A large concourse of friends and relatives gathered to do honor to her whom they loved in life and mourned in death. Costly and beautiful offerings of flowers betokened the high esteem she ever held. The services were simple and impressive. A quartette sang touchingly the last ham the deceased had sung in public, "Saved by Grace," and her pastor spoke the eulogy of her noble life, on the text: "My days are swifter than the past; they flee away; they are passed away as the swift ships. Behold, my witness is in heaven and my record on high." Ms. Foss was born in Portland, September 19, 1875. At the age of 10 she made a public profession of love to her Saviour, and became a member of the Methodist church. Six years ago she united with the United Brethren. She led a noble and consistent life ever bearing the name of Christ, with reverence and without reproach. The witness and the record of her life recorded in heaven is not forgotten by those who knew her and loved her. Hers was an affable nature. Warm-hearted and generous, she made friends of all who met her. To be in her presence was to be inspired with the brightness and nobility of a sunny life. When others felt discouraged she banished it with a geniality as genuine and effective as the sunlight of the springtime. Hers was a busy, industrial career. She saw that life should be more than mere existence. Her future she determined should count on eternity. She found a place in the classroom where immortal spirits might be molded and human character determined. And long after this will it be said: "Ida Foss taught me the nobility of character and the worth of life." In the church hers was not a passive Christianity. She need but be commanded and she obeyed. No one needed to coax her to do what she considered right, and no one could persuade her to do what she considered wrong. The home, the school, the church will miss Ida. We sorrow because a loved one is gone. We recall the apparent needless sacrifice. We decked her grave with beautiful, sweet-scented flowers. Her memory ever lives with us. We cherish her name and love her life. Sunny in disposition, charitable in opinion, noble in purpose, cultured in intellect, gifted and talented, and with the bond of love binding all the qualities of her nature, Ida Foss shall live forever in the memories of the undying minds. "Though oft depressed and lonely, All my fears are laid aside, If I but remember, only, Such as these have lived and died." The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., June 1, 1900, page 3 "Died" Mrs. Martha Miller Pope died of consumption at the family residence on the State road, on Sunday, May 27, 1900, aged 32 years, 7 months and 16 days. She was united in marriage with Mr. J. M. Pope on Dec. 18, 1887, and to this happy union five children were born, four of whom, little girls, survive their mother. The only boy died when but two months old. Stricken with a lingering and stealthy disease, her husband exhausted every resource at his command to find surroundings and conditions promising to his wife's restoration to health, but all in vain. During her long and painful illness she bore her suffering with a commendable fortitude, and when death came departed in the triumph of the Christian faith. Funeral services were held at the family residence on Monday, with burial at Idlewilde. Mrs. Pope was a member of the Congregational church. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., June 1, 1900, page 3 CARD OF THANKS I desire hereby to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the neighbors and friends who so devotedly ministered to the needs of my beloved companion, during her lingering illness, as well as to our family when bereft of a loving mother's service and care.

One by one earth's ties are broken, As we see our hope decay; And the love so fondly cherished Brightens, but to pass away. 'Tis hard to break the tender cords When love has bound the heart; 'Tis hard, so hard, to speak the words -- That we must from him part. A mother's hope, a father's joy, In death's cold arms doth lie. We saw our brother pass away, As the hand of death cooled his brow, And in our aching hearts we know, We have no Jimmie now; God needed one more angel boy, Amid his shining band; And so he bent with loving smile And clasped our brother's hand. We miss you from our home dear brother, But soon will come Where thou hast gone before. Hood River, Or. K.S.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., July 13, 1900, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" A fatal accident happened at Viento last Saturday. Arnold Eccles, the 12-year-old son of the superintendent of the Oregon Lumber Company, was running the engine at the mill in the absence of the regular work man, whose place he was accustomed to take, when he got caught in the wire rope of the drum of a hoisting engine.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., July 20, 1900, page 3 SUPPOSED DROWNING A sailboat containing John Dye and, it is supposed, Bob Hogan, was swamped in the Columbia river opposite Underwood's landing, Monday night. Dye was rescued, but it is almost certain that his partner, Logan, was drowned. It was just at dusk and Amos Underwood was aroused from his house by continued cries of distress. He had crossed the river himself shortly before and had seen Dye and Hogan making ready for sail from the Hood River side. Rushing out to a point of vantage, he could soon distinguish a capsized sailboat appearing on the crests of the waves as it floated with the strong current. Underwood hurried to his sailboat and put out to the rescue by himself, against a strong up-wind. About the same time, the men at McIntire's logging camp on the Knapp place on the Washington side of the river, discovered the distressed boatman. Frank Reeves ran a mile down the beach to his skiff and put out for the swamped boat. He soon met with the boat and took on board John Dye, who was clinging to the bottom of the capsized craft. Dye was more dead than alive at this time, and Reeves, to whom he was a stranger, could get no information from him. He was taken to Thornton's house on the Knapp place where he stayed all night and the next morning set out for his home at the mouth of the Little White Salmon. Amos Underwood reached the scene a few minutes after Dye was rescued, and was told by Reeves and Thornton that they had taken off a man from the capsized sailboat he was pursuing. As it was about 11 o'clock, Underwood returned to his house, and learned the next morning from the men at the logging camp who the rescued man was. Although Dye told nothing of the accident, it seems almost certain that he was accompanied by Bob Hogan at the time, and as he (Hogan) has not been seen or heard of since, he must have met his death in the waters of the Columbia. Amos Underwood saw the two men putting out for sail as he was crossing the river that evening. Both men had been drinking heavily that afternoon, and how the affair really happened no one knows. Bob Hogan was a man without a family, who has been living along the Columbia river for the past thirty years, at times working on scows and at wood camps. He worked for the Underwood Bros. when they operated wood scows to The Dalles.

He left a crowd at C. L. Rogers' cigar stand, corner Second and Oak streets, stepped out into the street some ten paces, opening his vest as he went, whipped out a revolver from his hip pocket, and placing the weapon to his left side fired the fatal shot. Green had arrived here two weeks ago Sunday from Bridal Veil, where he had worked for two Sweed fishermen. One, G.E. Carlson, claimed Green extracted $240 from his person while asleep on a scow. Carlson and partner found Green's whereabouts and followed him to Hood River last Sunday morning. The men met Green and demanded that he pay the $240 or go to jail. Green had spent his money lavishly in a protracted spree and had but $1.20 left at the time. The men followed Green around town all morning trying to get back the money. Carlson accosted Marshal Olinger and started up the street to Olinger's office, with Green and the other man following. On reaching Rogers' corner, Green saw Carlson enter the marshal's office, and he immediately stepped to the middle of the street and shot himself. Green was well connected in the East, coming from a wealthy family at Buffalo, N.Y., and had recently returned from a trip to Japan, where he had gone as a deck hand aboard the merchantman St. Paul. He had been denied admittance to his father's house, and when notified of his death, his father refused to have anything to do with the corpse.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., October 12, 1900, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" To men came to town last week for a coffin for a woman who died about eight miles from town on the East side. They refused to give their names to S.E. Bartmess, undertaker, and refused to talk with the editor of the Glacier, who asked the dead woman's name. Roumaine, of the Mt. Hood Stage Company, hauled the coffin out. A young man who went with him said he was a son of the deceased and that he worked for the Portland Cracker Co. The family are Swedes but further than this the neighbors know nothing about them. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., October 19, 1900, page 2 A PECULIAR CASE The woman who died two weeks ago, on the East Side, whose name was refused by the family for publication, was Mrs. Marie Sauer. The family lived for awhile on land purchased of J.C. Boggs, and recently moved to a place about eight miles up the valley. A son of the dead woman and her brother, Frederick Neyer, came to town for a coffin. They refused to tell the undertaker who the coffin was for, stating they had enemies who caused the a great deal of trouble, and they didn't want them to know of the death. Last Sunday, a week after the coffin was taken out, the neighbors reported that the corpse was still unburied. Deputy Sheriff Olinger went out to the place and brought the remains in the coffin to town. He arrested Neyer and young Sauer and brought them along. The county coroner was notified and came from The Dalles and held an inquest. Dr. Brosius examined the remains and testified that the woman died of cancer in the breast. Neyer could speak no English, and J.R. Nickelsen acted as interpreter. Neyer said that he had been expecting money every day, and when it came it was his intention to take the remains to Portland for burial; that he had made a tim box for the corpse and soldered the box air tight before placing it in the coffin. Upon being questioned as to his object in keeping the dead woman's name from the public, he said, after some hesitation, that witches in Hood River had caused the family a good deal of trouble, and they had hoped to get away from here before the death became known, and before the witches could get in any more of their bad work. After the coroner's jury found there had been no foul play, the men were discharged. The corpse was left in the coffin in the dead room of S.E. Bartmess' undertaking establishment Sunday night, and Monday morning, just before daylight, Neyer procured a livery team and, without notifying Bartmess, entered the dead room and took the coffin and its contents back to his home in the country. At 7 o'clock Bartmess discovered that the corpse was missing and he made search for Neyer and young Sauer. Neyer could not be found, and Sauer knew nothing about the corpse being taken. Later it was learned that Neyer got a team of the Mt. Hood Stage Co. The man is a believer in witchcraft; otherwise he actions, as it proved, were all right. The family came from Germany four years ago. The deceased woman was afflicted with cancer before she came to this country.

Their home at White Salmon was known to all as being ever open to their friends, and the most hospitable of places. In early days it was a custom for young people to make up parties and visit Mr. and Mrs. Joslyn, who was the most accomplished entertainers, and many of the pleasantest recollections of those who have grown to womanhood and manhood in The Dalles are associated with these visits to the Joslyn homestead. A Colorado paper giving an account of Mrs. Joslyn's death states that a niece, Miss Tuck, was spending the evening with her while Mr. Joslyn was attending a prayer meeting.

WATSON January 4, 1901. The cycle of Time is rolling on, It brings your golden wedding morn, And like the sun that shines in gold, Fifty years have onward rolled. Amid the changing scenes of life, Fifty years of married life, Good deeds that never can be told, As fifty years have onward rolled. You have stood beside the little grave, Heard sweet music and songs of praise: You have tenderly laid your loved one down -- He is waiting in heaven, with a golden crown. Amid the flowers of green and gold, Fifty years of married life unfolds; Like golden sunshine and stars of night, Onward rolled your golden wedding night. Fifty years ago, one bright, clear day, So young, so fair, so bright and gay, A marriage feast, a ring of gold, And fifty years have onward rolled. Sometimes the hills you'd start to climb; Sometimes you heard silvery chimes; Sometimes the sunshine glistened bright, As onward rolled your golden wedding night. Again we hear the words of prayer; The man of God is standing there; Again a marriage feast, a ring of gold, And fifty years have onward rolled. Like the sun that set in western sky, Flowers blooming, we know not why; Like the flowers that now unfold, You shall walk the streets of shining gold. And so, amid the glint of sheen and gold, Cycles of time have onward rolled; Generations pass away, And brings your golden wedding day. Like shining golden sheaves of wheat, Strains of music, soft and sweet, Closing days are rolling on, You shall live beyond God's rising sun. No night, no day, no setting sun, No tears, no sorrow there shall come; Reward you shall then be given, To die and live with God in heaven. Life's shadows then shall fade away, Sunshine change to eternal day; Life's mystery you shall understand, When you are called to God's Beulah Land. I lay this token at your feet, Asking God to guard and keep Until life's curtain is rung down, You both shall wear God's golden crown. The stars in heaven are shining bright On this your golden wedding night; A clasp of hand, a word of prayer, God keep you in his tender care. Mr. and Mrs. W. P.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., February 1, 1901, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" IN MEMORY OF DAISY CAMPBELL One voice is silent around the evening fire, One form comes not to cheer us with its gladness; There brothers and sisters mingle with mother and sire, But tongues are mute and hearts are chilled with sadness. Thoughts dwell on past communion unforgot, One voice is silent, we hear it not, The loved form no more is sitting there, Those lips move with cheering words no more; Death's hand has thrown a strange light on the brow, One voice is silent, it pleads not now. Which she has pressed in winter time and spring; No words of comfort shall come again, No troublesome thought that gentle bosom wring, The shrouded eye hath parted with its tears; One voice is silent, one we loved so dear, One voice is silent; aye, no more that tone; Father and mother, brothers, sisters, o'er our pleasant home is stealing. Our darling Daisy's life is done and we are alone, But oh, remember, in this pang of feeling, How dear the hope that God to us has given, One voice is silent here but wakes in heaven, In heaven's flower garden, above. Sweet little Daisy buds and blossoms into an angel of love; Her angel baby brother meets her at the pearly gates, An at God's throne together for the loved ones they wait.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., February 15, 1901, page 2 DEATH OF CAPTAIN HORATIO COOKE Captain Horatio Cooke, brother of Mrs. Middleton and uncle of Mrs. C.R. Bone, died in Portland, Feb. 10, 1901, aged 74. Deceased came to Oregon in 1852. He engaged in the undertaking business and manufactured coffins in the early days, and he conducted an establishment until two years ago, when rheumatism and other troubles compelled his retirement. Captain Cooke was known as a generous hearted man, and it was said of him that in cases of death where a family was unable to pay the burial expenses, he marked the charges in his credit book and let them stand until someone was able to pay them. He never attempted to collect such bills, and very often the debtors failed to pay him, so his losses were rather heavy. Captain Cooke was for several years captain of the old Washington Guard, the crack organization of the Northwest. He was also an active member of the old Columbia No. 3 Volunteer Fire Engine Company, and was always seen on the line when the heavy Amoskeog apparatus, in response to an alarm, was hauled to a fire by the sturdy young and old volunteers. Captain Cooke leaves a wife, who is in failing health; a daughter, Mrs. Gertrude Andrews, of Portland; another living in Dalton, Cal., and a third, Mrs. Alice Walker of New York City. He also leads two brothers, J.W. and Vincent Cooke, and a sister, Mrs. Middleton and Mrs. Dr. Thompson, all of Portland.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., February 22, 1901, page 2 GOLDEN WEDDING ANNIVERSARY One of the happiest and most charming social events of this season was the golden wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Ellis, celebrated at Masonic hall, last Saturday evening, Feb. 16, 1901. Upon this occasion a reception in honor of the happy and aged couple was tendered by the Masonic and Eastern Star lodges of Hood River. E.E Savage was master of ceremonies and gave an appropriate address in honor of the delighted couple, who had just completed their fiftieth year of married life. Other exercises in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Ellis were recitations by the Misses Nellie Rogers and Flossie Phelps, solos by Mrs. A.A. Jayne and J.R. Nickelsen, and presentation speeches by E.E Savage and C. J. Hayes. The relatives and numerous friends of the guests friends of the guests of honor, in token of their love and esteem, presented to them a sum of gold coin, a gilded bone cutter, and a bright, elegant rocker. The latter article of comfort and usefulness was presented to Mrs. Ellis in a beautiful and impressive address by C. J. Hayes. The Rev. J. L. Hershner had been invited to perform the golden wedding ceremony. To the strains of a wedding march executed by Dr. Brosius, Mr. and Mrs. Ellis, with the Hon. and Mrs. E.L. Smith as groomsman and bridesmaid, marched to the platform at the rear end of the hall, where the officiating minister with appropriate words re-betrothed the pair to the marriage vows so happily entered upon 50 years ago, almost to the very hour, concluding the ceremony by invoking the blessing of God upon them. A marked coincidence in felicitous event was, that Mr. and Mrs. Ellis and Mr. and Mrs. E.L. Smith procured their licenses of marriage at the same court house, namely: at Woodstock, McHenry county, Illinois; the former 50 years ago, the latter 40 years ago. The events of the evening were the addresses by Mr. and Mrs. Ellis, in which, with feeling and appreciative words, they recounted the joys and successes of their married life and expressed their heartfelt gratitude to their many friends who had thus honored them. The one sustaining strain in each address was that it pays to live up to the principles of a sincere Christian life. A long table groaning under the weight of good things prepared by the ladies of the Eastern Star, was twice filled, and all did ample justice to the feast of honor, the feature of which was the beautiful and elegantly lettered bride's cake, which was skillfully cut by the one who was the center of attraction, the bride. Wm. Ellis was born at Summersetshire, England, March 20, 1829. His parents came to America in 1831, settling in New York. In 1838 they removed to Illinois.

G.D. EATINGER AND FAMILY The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., March 22, 1901, page 3 OBITUARY Milton Oliver Wheeler was born in the state of Massachusetts, December 15, 1828, and died at Hood River, Wasco county, Oregon, at the residence of W. R. Winans, March 4, 1901, of rheumatism of the heart, aged 72 years, 2 months and 17 days. He was the father of Mrs. Mary Winans, wife of W. R. Winans, who is the only member of his family in this part of the country; the other members living in Iowa and Missouri. He lived an energetic, active life; helped to build many of the stone arches and walls used in the construction of the Eastern railway bridges, being a skillful stone cutter and having charge as foreman, and was always found at the front, where it took push and energy to win. And these works and many others stand today as lasting monuments to the work of his hands. He pioneered the way in Illinois, Iowa and Missouri, when these states were new, coming to Oregon in March, 1887, joining the Winans colony at Hood River, and has now gone on ahead to the reward of his life's work. The funeral services were conducted, March 6, at the residence of W. R. Winans, also at the grave, by Rev. J. L. Hershner, assisted by Rev. Taggart, whose touching prayers and kind words of tribute were a lasting solace to the sorrowing relatives and friends gathered there to bid a last farewell. Then tenderly we laid him down to rest, Singing sad songs by his silent grave; Praying to Him who, knowing best, Has the only loving power to save. Now we hold a golden anchor by a crystal chain of tears, Across death's mystic river, while we bide the passing years, When we hail the silent boatman as he sails across the tide, To bear us to our loved ones waiting on the other side, When we know that our beloved ones watch and wait for us to come, It will ease the pain of dying when we know we're going home, We fulfill the law of nature while we're passing, one by one, And should bow in meek submission to Thy will, not mine, be done. W.R. WINANS. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., March 22, 1901, page 3 "Died" In Hood River Valley, March 17, 1901, Mrs. W. C. Sproat. The sorrowing relatives and sympathizing neighbors assembled on Tuesday last to pay their last affectionate tribute to Mrs. W. C. Sproat, who died on last Sunday morning, March 17th, of congestion of the lungs, following an attack of the grip. Her illness was brief and her death came as a sudden blow to their grief stricken husband and children. Deceased was born in Herkimer county, New York, nearly 71 years ago, coming west with her parents before the era of railroads and settling in Wisconsin when that state was still a wilderness, later moving to northern Minnesota, enduring the severe cold of that climate for 20 years and last September settling with her family in the genial Hood River valley, finally anticipating a further lease of life in this fruitful vale. She was a home woman in every sense of the word, her husband and her children ever being uppermost in her mind. Self denial, self sacrifice and a rigid fulfillment of her sense of duty and morality were her cardinal principle. She early in life united with the Methodist church and died in the fullness of Christian faith. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., March 22, 1901, page 3 "Died" Ivan Frederick, son of G.D. and Sadie M. Eatinger. Born May 22, 1899; transplanted March 18, 1901. There are times when one almost questions the goodness of God. A dear little one comes into the home and entwines itself around parental hearts, and by its sweetness and beauty makes friends with all with whom it comes in contact. Ivan was a sweet little boy, with an intelligence far in advance of his years. Being a twin, his mate, little Inez, constantly asks for "Iva" and looks for his coming. Kind friends came forward and did all in their power to lighten the burden of the grief-stricken parents. A beautiful and impressive service was held Sunday at the Belmont church, the Sunday school and Junior League helping greatly. The remains were laid tenderly to rest in Idlewilde, and another voice is singing "How beautiful to walk in the steps of the Savior," that being his favorite hymn. Two homes are lonely for our little sweetheart. "And sigh for the touch of a vanished hand, And the sound of a voice that is still." The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., March 29, 1901, page 2 TRAGEDY AT UNDERWOOD LANDING A cowardly murder occurred at Underwood Landing, Wash., opposite Hood River, Saturday night, March 23rd. Edson Benjamin of Hood River was shot and instantly killed by someone who fired through the window. The tragedy took place at Wm. Wendorf's house, 1½ miles from Underwood. Benjamin was in the employ of Nicolai & Cameron as foreman of their logging camp. The camp was preparing to move to a new location above the falls of the White Salmon, and a dance was given as a farewell party to the loggers by their friends in the neighborhood. The dance was held in Wendorf's barn and the supper was given in the residence. At the third table was seated Edson Benjamin, L.W. Jones, Wm. Wendorf, Mrs. Harry Olsen and Mrs. Nellie Brown. Mrs. Brown had been waiting upon the tables and had just sat down alongside Benjamin and was serving coffee when a shot was fired through the window, striking Benjamin in the head and passing through, a part of the ball struck Mrs. Brown on the shoulder. Benjamin fell to the floor and expired without a word. Mrs. Brown's injury was slight. L. W. Jones immediately went to the barn, were dancing had been resumed, and informed the dancers of the shooting. The men all turned out and hunted for the assassin but he could not be found. Suspicion immediately rested upon a logger named Jim Green, who had had some trouble with Benjamin and threatened his life. Green was in love with a woman who recently rejected his advances and it is supposed to this caused him to become intensely jealous. Edson Benjamin moved from The Dalles to Hood River about two years ago, and about one year ago bought the Dan Smith place on the East Side. He was a man well spoken of by all who knew him. He leaves a widow. His age was about 38, and he was a native of Illinois. The A.O.U.W. lodge of The Dalles, of which he was a member, took charge of the funeral and he was buried at The Dalles Tuesday. The coroner came up from Stevenson Sunday, and we understand the jury found a verdict in accordance with the above facts and charged Green as being the murderer. Sheriff Totten came up from Stevenson Sunday and with deputies commenced a search for Green. Green was hid in the woods. Tuesday, as the officers passed his near his hiding place, he came out and gave himself up and confessed to the murder. He was brought to Hood River Tuesday evening and taken to The Dalles, and Wednesday morning was taken to Vancouver, where a special term of court will convene for his trial. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., March 29, 1901, page 2 It is said there are some very badly scared citizens of Underwood after it was learned that Jim Green had killed Benjamin. One young man turned gray in a night. Another, a young man who had loaned Green a gun, fearing arrest as an accomplice, swallowed a big dose of carbolic acid in a quart of cider with suicidal intent. The cider acted as an antidote and as an emetic, and the youth will live to get scared another day. The only person heard of showing any presence of mind during the excitement of the affair was Mrs. Brown, who, after the fatal shot was fired, blew out the lamp so that the assassin could not see into the room to shoot again.

R. and W.R.C., last Saturday, in memory of comrades Benjamin Hull, 33d Iowa; Edwin Gorton, 111th Ohio; A.K. Isenberg, 1st Penn. artillery; and Daniel H. Clough, 9th Ohio battery, was well attended by the Grand Army and the Relief Corps and their friends. Commander T. J. Cunning, in opening the service, spoke as follows: "To the friends of our departed comrades I wish to say a few words, not as an apology for inviting them here, but rather as an explanation. The Grand Army of the Republic is an organization of memories, and those memories, interwoven and knit together by association on hundreds of battlefields, have been reunited and strengthened by our neighbors together in behalf of Fraternity, Charity and Loyalty. We have lived long enough to note the growing lack of interest in the desperate struggle to save the Union in which they took a part, and which service makes it possible for the present organization to exist. Our great captains have nearly all passed on, and an aging remnant of that mighty host that brought victory to our banner is all that is left. The words of "The Recessional" seem fitly applicable; "The tumult and the shouting dies, The captains and the kings depart; Still stands thine ancient sacrifice, A broken and a contrite heart, Lord God of hosts, be with us yet, Lest THEY forget, lest THEY forget." "There is no danger of us forgetting, and when it comes to parting with a comrade who has been endeared to us by the fellowship of the march, the bivouac, the battle and the longer association of the post room, we realize something of the meaning of the word comrade. The one you mourn was our comrade with all that that word means to us, and you are brought nearer to us on account of your relationship or interest in him. You may be assured that you will always be regarded with tenderest interest by the members of this post, and any assistance will be gladly rendered." The impressive memorial services were then conducted by the post. Mrs. A.A. Jayne sang the song, "Tenting on the Old Camp Ground," and the audience joined in the chorus. Feeling remarks in memory of the departed comrades were made by J.W. Rigby, C. J. Hayes, and M.P. Isenberg and E.D. Calkins. Mrs. Jayne then song the song, "The Blue and the Gray." Mrs. F. E. Jackson accompanied Mrs. Jayne's singing on the organ. Mrs. Louise Goddard gave a reading from Sir Edwin Arnold's, "Light of Asia." The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., April 19, 1901, page 2 MURDER IN THE FIRST DEGREE Stevenson, Wash., April 13. - James G. Green was found guilty of murdering E.V. Benjamin at Wendorf's near Underwood's landing, March 24. The jury returned a verdict of murder in the first degree after delivering 45 minutes. Although the verdict was received in stolid silence by the defendant, he had broken down during the trial and had made an open confession of his crime. A new trial will be asked for. It was the sight of the widow of the murdered Benjamin with her great sorrow, that unnerved Green and caused him to alter his mind as to fighting the cause to the end. After the session of the first day he called his counsel and Judge Miller, and declared that he wanted to trial over as soon as possible, as he was unable to bear the sight of Mrs. Benjamin's grief. "I killed Benjamin," said Green, "and should receive the punishment. I want to plead guilty and hang here in Stevenson. Benjamin is dead, but I can't stand the sight of Mrs. Benjamin in the court room." This being the desire of the confessed murderer to have the agony of the trial over, the prosecution cut short the testimony to be introduced, and this gave Green an opportunity to take the stand and tell his story. He began by stating that he was 31 years old, and then spoke of his visit to the Hayne's home and his departure from there at 11 o'clock at night for his logging camp. "When I came to Wendorf's I saw a light. I looked in through the window and noticed Benjamin sitting there with Nellie Brown, and I raised my gun and shot him. I didn't realize what I had done until I seen him fall back, then I went to Haynes' and told what Mrs. Haynes swore to yesterday. We had emptied a couple of bottles of whiskey. I had one bottle with me, about at drank in it, which I finished on the road. I didn't know there was a dance at Wendorf's place nor the whereabouts of Benjamin. I was told he had moved to a logging camp on the White Salmon, 18 miles away. I had no trouble with Benjamin, nothing serious. We had trouble one time and fixed it up, and shook hands over it, and was as good friends as ever. I have known Nellie Brown for three years. Three months after I first met her we were engaged. This lasted until New Year's of 1901 Asked if Benjamin was the cause of the breaking of the engagement, Green declined to express himself, stating that he did not desire to make any exposures. When asked what his feelings were toward Nellie Brown, the defendant broke down and cried, replying that he loved the woman better than his life. Counsel for the defense argued for a verdict of murder in the second degree, as he said there was no testimony showing the deed to have been premeditated. The prosecution demanded conviction in the first degree or acquittal. It required the jury but 45 minutes to return a verdict of murder in the first degree. When he realized that his fate was sealed, Green's desire to be hanged immediately at Stevenson underwent a change, and he requested his attorneys to fight the case as hard as possible, and ask for a new trial. Green has been returned to Vancouver pending the decision on the motion and sentence. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., April 19, 1901, page 2 Miss Clara Davis, a niece of Judge Bradshaw of The Dalles, was found dead in her bed on the morning of April 11th.

Bad speculation in boom times was the starter for the bank's misfortunes, and these two officials had managed by false entries to keep the bank going since 1893. Depositors will suffer heavy losses. Brown and Canby couldn't face the jury of duped depositors and public opinion, but they had the nerve to kill themselves, and their lifeless bodies were found in the woods near town, with an empty pistol showing that both had suicided with the same weapon.

Davidson, general manager of the Lost Lake lumber company, dropped dead from heart failure at his home early Saturday morning.

Captain Davidson was a man who paid close attention to business all his life, possessed a sterling character, and the loss of his influence as an enterprising business man and citizen will be heavily felt by the community. Captain Payton S. Davidson was born September 16, 1827, in South Point, Lawrence county, Ohio.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., July 26 1901, page 2 FROM LIFE UNTO DEATH Our citizens were shocked the morning of July 17th to learn of the sudden death of John Markley, which occurred at his home at 6 a.m.. He was a man of more than ordinary ability and intelligence; was honored by all who knew him. He was our friend and a friend to humanity. He was liberal and charitable toward all, especially in his religious views. In morals he was exemplary. He loved his wife, children and home; his whole being seemed wrapped up in his home. He detested hypocrisy and deceit in thought, word or deed. He was unselfish, always trying to see how much could he could do for others. Mr. Markley was not a member of any church; he had a belief that was peculiarly his own. His life was his religion. He advocated and practiced charity for all, counting church members among many of his nearest friend.

Mr. Noteman was employed as night watchman at Davenport's planing mill.

The funeral services were held Sunday afternoon, at Belmont chapel, and were in charge of the A.O.U.W. lodge, Levi Bradley officiating. The lodge quartet, Messrs. Watt, Clarke, Shute and Brosius, furnished music. Interment was made in Idlewilde cemetery. Sylvester A. Noteman was born in Watertown, N.Y., February 14, 1832.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 9, 1901,page 3 ALFRED INGALLS DROWNED Alfred Ingalls, the 21-year-old son of Alfred Ingalls, met death by drowning, Sunday evening, August 4, 1901, while swimming in the John Day river with a threshing crew from Wasco. Word of the accident reached here Monday, and the young man's father left on the noon train for the scene of the drowning. Search was immediately made for the body, but was unsuccessful until Wednesday morning, when after the use of dynamite the body was found floating a quarter mile below where the boy was drowned. The remains were conveyed overland and reached Hood River, Thursday. Funeral arrangements have not been made yet. How the accident really happened no one seems to know. The threshing crew were bathing in water not deep enough for swimming, when young Ingalls suddenly threw up his arms and disappeared from sight. Good swimmers dived for the body but could find nothing of it. It seems that he fell in between a ledge of rocks where the water was 30 feet deep, and perhaps his body caught and prevented him rising again. Alfred Ingalls was a bright, capable, industrious young man, and his family have the deep sympathy of the community in their bereavement. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 16, 1901, page 2 CARD OF THANKS To our many kind of friends of Hood River, Wasco and vicinity, we desire to return our heartfelt thanks for their kindly aid and sympathy in the loss of our beloved son and brother. MR. AND MRS. J. INGALLS & FAMILY. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 16, 1901, page 3 "Brief Local Matters" Alfred Ingalls returned overland last Thursday from Wasco with the body of his son who was drowned last week in the John Day river. The funeral services were held the same afternoon at Idlewilde cemetery. It is opposed by those who saw the accident that the boy was dead before he fell beneath the water, for, had it been it simple drowning, the body would have reappeared. The heat at the time was intense. After bathing in the river, the boy raced on the sand with his companions, and being overheated the sudden shock of the cold water caused his death.

This is the first death by smallpox in the valley. Dr. Brosius informs us that the woman died more from fright and nervous strain than from the effects of the disease. The situation in the Dalles Valley neighborhood is really serious, and every precaution should be taken to maintain a strict quarantine against all persons who have been exposed. J.A.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., October 11, 1901, page 3 RESOLUTIONS ON THE DEATH OF McKINLEY By Canby Post, No. 16, G.A.R. Whereas, President and Comrade William McKinley has represented the highest type of American manhood by a life in public and private which was pure and without a blemish; whose rectitude of purpose has won for him the admiration and homage of his own countrymen and the respect of all civilized nations, and whose crowning act in soothing the last lingering sorrows that were left by our civil strife, thus making us one and inseparable; and Whereas, His death was by the hand of an assassin of foreign extraction, whose nature was set on fire by the loathsome and blatant teachings of anarchy; therefore be it Resolved, That as citizens of this republic and members of the G. A. R., we bow in grief at the death of him who was in the prime of life and usefulness, and in shame that this goodly heritage is giving shelter to the off-scourings of the anarchists dens of Europe. We will emulate his virtues and point our sons with pride to a character so noble, a life so pure, an ambition so holy, beginning at the first round in the climb for fame and honor, and reaching the summit only to be the hurled down by the assassin's hand, ere he had accomplished his mission. Resolved, That the system (anarchy) that is responsible for the assassination of our president and comrade should be short lived. How long shall blatant anarchists be allowed to breathe their treasonable and murderous utterances in this otherwise free and happy land? It is no madman's act; it is the result of false teaching; it comes as the fruit of anarchist thought, which has been permitted to grow. What an awful harvest! Comrades, our duty is clear -- let us urge our legislature to enact laws more stringent, to protect our shores from the venomous touch of the viper that saps the foundation of all true society and government and poisons all with whom it comes into contact. Legislate for the speedy removal or the placing beyond harm's power, those now in our amidst who claim protection of freedom's flag but who are followers of the red flag. Comrades, how better could we round out life's pilgrimage and "War a good warfare" than carry out of the memorable order of the late General Dix, paraphrased: "If any man attempts to hoist their red flag, shoot him on the spot!"

A night and day watch is now kept and will be maintained up to the day of Green's doom. The precise date of the execution has not yet been made public, but it is evidently near at hand, as Sheriff Totten is now planning to have cards printed inviting his friends to witness the gruesome event. About 200 of these favors will be distributed. The prisoner shows such a woeful lack of courage as the day approaches for the execution that the sheriff has decided to construct a gallows in the woods adjacent to the town, and away from hearing distance of the condemned man. -- Pioneer The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., November 1, 1901, page 2 DEATH OF MRS.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., November 8, 1901, page 3 WAS IT MURDER OR SUICIDE Sunday afternoon as Miss Lizzie Backus was gathering mushroom along the little run that comes down by Paradise farm, and near the railroad track, she found the dead body of a man lying under a tree. The startled girl notified the proper persons and the remains were at once taken charge of by the authorities. The dead man proved to be J.E. Rourke, formerly book keeper for Jno. Bird. Mr. Rourke came to Hood River about two years ago from Wyoming, where his relatives still reside. He has been in Hood River and vicinity almost continuously ever since he came. At the time as his death he was the in the employ of Kirkpatrick Bros. The following is the findings of the corner's jury: We, the undersigned, jurors impaneled by W. H. Butts, coroner of Wasco county, to inquire into the cause of the death of the body now before us, find his name to be J.E. Rourke, of Wyoming and find from the evidence that he is 62 years old and has been a resident here for about two years, and we further find that the cause of death was suicide by shooting himself in the head, as we find a 38 caliber revolver in his right hand tightly gripped and one barrel had been discharged, that this occurred on or about the first of November, and one mile west of Hood River. J.E. Rand, C. R. Jones, J.H. Nickelsen, A.M. McGregor, A.S. Blowers, J.J. Luckey, While in the judgment of the jury his death was a suicide, there are some circumstances which would possibly indicate murder, such, for instance, as the total absence of powder marks or burns about the wound, the absence of important papers he was supposed to have on his person, and position of wound which is unnatural and would be difficult for a man of his age to accomplish. The evidence showed that he was in a despondent mood the last few days he was seen here from some unknown cause, certainly not in regard to money matters, as his father's estate which will be settled in January would have given him about $12,000. His relatives have been communicated with and the body is being held in S.E. Bartmess' undertaking rooms pending instructions from them.

SAVAGE Edward Everett Savage died at his home in Hood River, Oregon, at 6:40 o'clock a.m., Nov. 21, 1901. The cause of his death was cancer of the stomach. He took his bed Oct. 12, for the last time. He leaves a widow and two sons - Charles Savage of San Francisco, and Ralph Savage of Hood River. Mr. Savage was born in Augusta, Maine, September 15, 1848. In 1856 his parents moved to Butler county, Iowa, where the subject of this sketch grew to manhood and engaged in business. Among other enterprises he published a newspaper at Parkersburg, Iowa, and also at Shell Rock, Iowa. He was married March 17, 1869, to Mary Elizabeth Burdick, at New Hartford, Iowa. For a number of years he was in the employ of the New England and Loan & Trust Co., at Sioux Falls, Des Moines and Omaha. He came to Hood River in February, 1894, and engaged for several years in farming and fruit growing. For the past 18 months he was engaged in the hardware trade in Hood River, and in that time he built up a good business.

Mr. Savage was universally respected, not only for his many noble qualities as a man and a citizen, but also for his great abilities and general knowledge. He was self-made and a remarkable man in many respects. An accomplished parliamentarian, he could preside gracefully and with dignity over a deliberate body, or was at home at the blacksmith's forge, or in a carpenter's shop, or in a printing office. He was learned in the law, had mastered several languages, could report a speech in shorthand and was as adept at the deaf and dumb alphabet. At all times reserved, he never put himself forward, and a stranger might not have taken him to be the erudite scholar and accomplished gentleman that he was. He was a man that would have done honor to himself and a constituency in the halls of congress. In politics he was a life-long republican.

On March 28, 1852, deceased was joined in marriage at Cascade Locks with Miss Helen B. Palmer, who died very suddenly Dec. 21, 1897. Five children were born to this union, four dying in infancy. Mr. Bradford was a man of high and noble ideals, a kind husband and father, generous and noble in his bearing toward others, well informed on the general topics of the times, and an interesting and forceful personality. Religiously, he had deep convictions and firmly believe in the God of his father's and in that abiding faith entered into his heavenly reward. An aged brother, A.G., his son, P.F. Bradford, jr., and Mrs. A.B. Canfield, who lived in his house many years, and whom he tenderly regarded as a daughter, all of Hood River, a sister in Pittsfield, Mass., as well as other relatives in New England and California, deeply mourn the loss of a loving brother, and father, and our city one of its most honorable and upright citizens.

As presiding elder, he had charge of all the state of Washington, nearly all of the Oregon and Idaho, and his travels over them made him more widely known personally, without doubt, than any other minister in the Pacific Northwest. He represented the thirteenth general conference district in the general missionary and church extension committees of the Methodist Episcopal church from 1876 to 1888, and on the resignation of J. H. Wilbur from the same committees in 1886 he was elected by the board of bishops to succeed him, thus making six years' service therein. Dr. Hines was also quite active in political life. During the days of the secession he was one of the staunch supporters of the Union and delivered the first political speech coming from any minister on the coast. He was president of the territorial council of Washington, and a member of the legislature during the sessions of 1864 and 1866. In 1876 he was a republican delegate to the national convention at Cincinnati, which nominated R.B. Hayes for president. In 1878 he was republican candidate for congress from this state. Dr. Hines was married at Wyoming, N.Y., in 1852, to Miss Elizabeth J. Graves. She was an able helper an all missionary work, and by her personal effort and enthusiasm organized the Woman's Christian Temperance Union of Oregon, of which she was first president. He was well and favorably known throughout the state for her many deeds of kindness and charity. She died in January, 1889, leading a bereaved husband and two children, James A. and Lua A. The latter is now the wife of C.K. Cranston. Dr. Hines was also a professor of the theological department of the Portland University. His years of faithful work have been of great service and have been marked by ability, industry, constancy and efficiency. His capacity for hard work in both the study and field supplemented his ability in the pulpit, and the promise of his early years was fulfilled. The whole field covered by his laborers and the variety of the work to which he had been called, enabled him to an extent given to but few to impress himself for the good of the civil and ecclesiastical affairs of the empire of the Northwest.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., January 31, 1902, page 2 OBITUARY Pearl Vivian Hadley, daughter of Charles and Martha Hadley, was born near Sylvania, Park county, Indiana, May 5, 1883, died at Dayton, Oregon, January 3, 1902, aged 18 years, 7 months and 28 days. Deceased was a kind hearted and obedient girl, her chief aim and desire in life seemed to be to love and serve God and to make home and friends happy; striving in every possible way to add to the comfort and joy of her parents. Always preferring their happiness to our own. Early in life she manifested a disposition to concentrate her entire life to the Master's of service and her brief earthly career was devoted to His cause. Although a model girl in every way, she felt the need of being "born of Heaven," and about three years ago she sought and found the savior in the conversion of her soul. At the same time she united with the M.E. church at Dayton, Oregon, and started out in a life that gave bright prospects for future usefulness, being one of the most devoted members of the church of her choice. She made the word of God her constant study, ever longing to know more about Jesus. Her affliction, which lasted for nearly a year, only drove her nearer to her blessed Redeemer. She manifested a cheerful hope for recovery until within about ten days of her death, then when told that she could not get well she said to her mother, "Do you really think I cannot live?" Her love for home and parents made her long for recovery, but she calmly submitted to the Lord's will, saying, "Well, mother, it is all right, anyway." From that time as long as she was able to talk, her conversation was of heaven. Even while suffering intensely, her faith never wavered. Her last appeals to those around her was, "Meet me in Heaven." Her favorite hymn was: "My heavenly home is bright and fair." And she often asked to have it sung for her, herself joining in the singing as long as her strength would permit. - C.E.C. in Dayton Herald.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., March 28, 1902, page 3 DROWNING OF JOHN EGAN John Egan, a young man living with his parents at White Salmon, was drowned Monday night under the following circumstances: Ed Fewel, Jas. Dark and John Egan crossed the Columbia in a sailboat from Hood River about 1 o'clock Tuesday morning. When the boat arrived within eight or ten feet of the landing at White Salmon, Ed Fewel left the tiller and went to the bow of the boat to keep it from striking the rocks, and at the same time asked Egan to take the tiller. Fewel noticing the boat was swinging round in the current, looked back and saw Egan in the water. He had fallen overboard upstream. Fewel threw a rope to Egan, but the latter failed to catch it. He then threw an oar, but the unfortunate man also failed to catch the oar. In the moonlight Fewel could see Egan drifting for about one hundred feet from the boat. He was swimming and trying to make the shore against the strong current that flows out at that point. Ira Rowland and Fewel then started down the stream in a boat, looking for Egan. They went as far as Underwood landing, but their search was unavailing. On their way back they picked up the oar that had been thrown to Egan. The accident has cast a gloom over the White Salmon community, more especially on account of the condition of the boy's father, who is very ill, and is hardly able to bear this additional burden in his weakened state. John G. Egan was the eldest son of John P. and Margaret Egan, and was 21 years of age. He was born on the White Salmon homestead, as were the other children of Mr. and Mrs. Egan. He was a member of the White Salmon assembly of the United Artisans, and carried an insurance policy in that order.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., July 25, 1902, page 4 IN MEMORIAM Tenul (Texas) Transcript It is with deep regret we record the death of our christian friend and sister, Mrs. R. L. Neves. She had partially recovered from a long and painful illness, and was on a visit to her father in Oregon, but a slight cold taken on the way, caused a relapse and the death angel came on Thursday, June 26, and loosed her from all earthly suffering and she went home to God. It always seems strange that one so young and good; a happy companion with so much of life and love before them, should be the signing mark of death. But we know our heavenly father would not suffer it, if it were not for good. He is too wise to make a mistake, and too kind to do his dependent children any wrong. Therefore we resign ourselves to his providence, and pray for all who suffer. Whereas it has pleased him to take her angel spirit to himself, therefore, be it resolved, 1. That we ask God to give us grace to imitate her example and humility and preparation for the heavenly life, 2. That we have lost a faithful member of our Woman's Home Missionary Society, and a loyal member of our church, 3. That to the bereaved husband, to her loving parents, and an aunt who so lovingly cared for her, we tender our deepest sympathy, and pray God's grace may sustain them in this great affliction; 4. That a copy of these resolutions be spread upon the minutes of our society, published in our city papers and sent to the bereaved. Mrs. M. A. Allen, Mrs. W. B. Wheeler, Mrs. W. L. Martin, Committee.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 8, 1902, page 2 TRACY KILLS HIMSELF Tracy is dead. Wounded by the posse and bleeding from a severed artery he shot himself to avoid capture. A posse had the outlawed surrounded Tuesday night near Lake creek, Davenport, Wash. While running from a barn to a wheat field Tracy received a fusillade of rifle shots, one taking effect in his left leg between the knee and ankle, breaking the bone and severing an artery. Tracy crawled into the grain field and the posse remained outside to await reinforcements. About 11 o'clock at night a single pistol shot was heard. That was all. It was Tracy shooting himself through the head with the 45-caliber revolver. His lifeless body was found the next morning and taken to Davenport for shipment to Seattle or Salem. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 8, 1902, page 3 SAD CASE OF DROWNING Alice Pearl Shaw, the seven-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L.A. Shaw of Portland, was drowned in the west fork of Hood River, about half a mile below Sandy Flat, last Saturday afternoon. The mother and child were crossing a sheep bridge at the time of the accident, and it is thought that Mrs. Shaw became dizzy from watching the swift running water, for she was seen to fall headfirst into the stream and dragged her little girl with her. The river at this point narrows to 10 or 12 feet and is dangerously swift and deep. The little girl struck on a rock as she fell into the water and never came to the surface until taken out of the water 400 yards below. The mother floated in the water and was rescued a few minutes before the child. For a week or more there had been camped at Maple Dell Mr. and Mrs. Shaw and daughter Alice, and Walter Holt and wife of Portland and Walter McGuire and family of Hood River. Saturday, the party picnicked at the sheep bridge just below Sandy Flat. About 3:30 in the afternoon, the party excepting Mrs. Shaw and daughter, went 50 or 100 yards up the west bank of the stream. The woman and girl sat on the bridge playing with sticks in the water. They were seen to get up and cross to the right side, and when within a step of the bank, Mrs. Shaw, pulling the little girl with her, fell headlong into the swift waters. The alarm was given and everyone rushed to the assistance of the drowning woman and child. Walter McGuire was the first to reach the bridge, and threw Mrs. Shaw a chunk of wood he tore from an old log on the bank. She clung to the stick of wood, but the swift current prevented McGuire from pulling her to shore. Clinging to the piece of wood, Mrs. Shaw floated in midstream out of reach of those on the bank. None of the rescuers were good swimmers, and a struggle with the drowning woman in the rapids would have meant death to anyone. Some sheep-herders nearby came up quickly and aided in the rescue, one of them pulling Mrs. Shaw out of the shallow water. She had gone over a three-foot fall, but escaped with only slight bruises. Shortly after being taken from the water she fainted. The little girl never came to the surface after falling in, until pulled out of the shallow water by a sheep-herder about 50 yards below where her mother was rescued. She had been in the water for about 400 yards, and every effort was made to resuscitate her but in vain. Charles Castner brought Mr. and Mrs. Shaw and the body of the little girl into town that night, and the bereaved parents left the next morning for Portland. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 8, 1902, page 3 DEATH OF "UNCLE BILLY" EASTMAN William Graves Eastman, who died at his home in Hood River valley, July 30, 1902, at the age of 82 years, 5 months and 1 day, was born at Rupert, Bennington county, Vermont, February 29, 1820. At the age of four years, he went with his parents to Cattaraugus county, Western New York. Here he grew to manhood and engaged for a number of years in the dairy business, until he removed to Trempeleau county, Wisconsin, about 1859. He farmed here until coming to Oregon in May, 1889. He settled in a home on Phelps creek, in Hood River valley, where he lived an active life until his death, Wednesday morning of last week. In 1853, Mr. Eastman was married to Miss Betsy Jane Wickham, who with his two sons Earl L. and James Otis, survive him. Mr. Eastman enjoyed good health, up to within a few months of his death, the immediate cause of which was a hemorrhage of the lungs, lasting about five minutes. During his 13 years residence in Hood River he made many friends and was known by all as "Uncle Billy" Eastman. He was a staunch believer in the principles of the republican party and was always proud to say he cast his first presidential vote for William Henry Harrison.

Shaw, of this city, in Hood river, Saturday evening, is one of the distressing incidents of the summer outing. An accident against which, as far as can be judged from the report of the occurrence, prudence could not prevail, the distressed parents have the sympathy of the large number with whom the summer camping fever has become epidemic. It was one of those painful domestic tragedies for which no one was to blame. -- Oregonian. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 8, 1902, page 5 "Brief Local Matters" Little Eleanor Potter Davidson is confined in the Good Samaritan, Portland, with typhoid fever. The little one had been ill for some time, and her grandmother, Mrs. Potter took her to the coast, where Mrs. Potter's daughter, Mrs. Frank McFarland was staying, but the child grew steadily worse and was finally taken to Portland.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 8, 1902, page 5 MAN DROWNED A telephone message from Portland this morning inquired after the particulars of the drowning of a man named French of Mount Tabor, in the White Salmon, Wednesday afternoon. Inquiry about town gained nothing about the matter. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 15, 1902, page 2 The drowning of a 12-year-old boy, near town, Wednesday morning, is one of similar accidents from which few committees escape each summer. Boys will go in swimming, and now and then someone with immature judgment ventures beyond his depth and his frightened companions are unable to save him. This accident will cause many anxious parents to keep their boys from the water, and will tend to make the boys themselves more careful. But it is not right to deny the boys the privilege of swimming. Better have some reliable person teach them to swim, and when they are able to take care of themselves in the water, wholesome parental discipline should tend to subdue any attempt at recklessness.

The body was found by George Smith in four feet of water, an hour or two after death, and carried to the undertaking parlors.

The boys wanted to go into the river bathing, and Mr. Francis gave his consent, accompanying them to the river. Finally the boys got beyond their depth and called for assistance. Mr. Francis plunged into the stream and rescued his own son, whom he carried to the shore, then returned to rescue the Gervais boy. Just as he approached the drowning lad, Mr. Francis was seen to throw up his hands, and both went down. The river was dragged all Tuesday and until Wednesday evening, when Mr. Francis' body was recovered and brought to The Dalles for shipment to Portland, but the body of the boy has not yet been recovered. Mr. Francis was 56 years of age and the Gervais boy was 15. His parents reside near Portland.

Shaw of Portland, father of the little girl who was drowned at Maple Dell last week, thanking them for their work in saving the life of Mrs. Shaw. "We regret deeply the mistake the Portland paper made in reporting the occurrence," says Mr. Shaw, "as it was Mr. McGuire who saved Mrs. Shaw's life. Mrs. Shaw is feeling some better, but she was covered with bruises and the shock was terrible. We found so many kind friends, and they did so much for us, that I cannot express on paper how thankful we are to you all. Mrs. Bartmen was very kind, and I thank you for the note you wrote."

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 22, 1902, page 3 WILL IN A GRAVE It Was Found After Thirty Years in a Buried Family Bible After lying in a man's coffin for more than 30 years a will has been exhumed at Leavenworth, Ind., and its terms are likely to increase a troublesome litigation among the heirs of the man who had the document buried with him, says a local exchange. Jacob Kissinger was the man. The will was found by accident, because, when Kissinger died, although the will was believed to have been made, nobody could find it. So the heirs went to law, and have been at it for three decades. A few days ago a dispute arose which could be cleared up by the family Bible. So the old grave was opened and the book taken out. It was in a good state of preservation, and when opened, to the surprise of everyone, disclosed the old man's will. By the terms of the document found in the grave, the property of Kissingenr was divided equally among five children, one of them a resident of Germany and born of Kissingen's first wife. And this is where the new trouble begins. None of the four American heirs ever heard of the father's first marriage, and not one of them guessed that he had a brother in Europe. The German heir, of course, has been in ignorance, too, of the existence of his American brothers, and the property and money bequeathed to him. If he presses his claim now it is said that the four brothers who live here will have quite a hole made in their purses when they pay him what is his by his father's will.

PHILA BURT Dalles Chronicle Mrs. Phila Burt, who died at Los Angeles, California, in the 79th year of her age, will be remembered by old timers at Hood River as Mrs. Jenkins, who settled there with her husband, William Jenkins, in 1854. Mr. Jenkins and their only son were accidentally drowned at the mouth of Hood river in 1864. The widow continued to live there until 1870, when she married William Burt, a river engineer. They sold the old place and moved to Colorado, then to California in the hope of benefiting her failing health, but without avail. Mrs. Burt died on the 9th of August, 1902. She leaves her aged husband, one daughter in Denver, two sisters -- Mrs. Van Heusen, of Nebraska, Mrs. Kennie, of Brooklyn, N.Y., and one brother - Mr. James M. Benson, of The Dalles. Mrs. Burt was a woman of lovely character, beloved by all who knew her. Peace to her ashes. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., September 5, 1902, page 4 BELIEU - OLIVER A very pretty wedding took place Wednesday, August 27, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. James Oliver at Milwaukie, when their oldest daughter, Miss Mae Oliver, became the wife of Bert Belieu. The impressive service was performed by Rev. W. S. Wright, pastor of Sellwood Presbyterian church. The parlors and dining room were beautiful in their decorations. Under the beautiful bridal canopy the happy couple plighted their vows. The bride was very beautiful in white albetross and carried a shower bouquet of white carnations. Miss Agnes Oliver, as bridesmaid, was becomingly attired in white organdie. Love Stephens was best man. Mrs. Mamie NaSmythe, sister of the groom, played the wedding march. A delicious supper followed congratulations. A remarkable feature of the occasion was the fact that they were married on the 31st wedding anniversary of the groom's parents, Mr. and Mrs. B.F. Belieu, a fact which they did not know when they set the day. The wedding presents were numerous and very beautiful. Mr. and Mrs. Belieu left for Long Beach, where they will spend their honeymoon.

Mr. Henderson is walking around like a spring chicken and, and men and women are busy getting everything in order in the home for a welcome to the loved ones on their home-coming. Mr. Henderson thinks of adding another story -- a brick basement to this house. His family is large, one son in college, two sons in high school, a daughter in private school and his mother; all of whom must be provided with rooms. If every head of a family in Hood River does as well for posterity, the population of our town will be increased one-half. Mr. Henderson believes in his town, and is a hustler.

TONGUE DEAD Oregon Representative Succumbs To Heart Failure Brought On by Acute Indigestion - End Came Peacefully and Without Pain - His Daughter Bertha and His Secretary Only Persons with Him - Many Expressions of Sorrow. Washington, Jan, 12. - Representative Thomas H. Tongue, of the First Oregon congressional district, in the presence of his daughter Bertha and his secretary, Mrs. Ruane, died suddenly in his room at the Irvington, in this city, at 12:50 yesterday afternoon. A few minutes before he passed away he lapsed into unconsciousness, and died without a word, without any suffering. His son, Thomas H., Jr., did not reside with his father, but was notified of his approaching end, and hastened to his father's bed side, but did not reach there until after he had passed away. The physicians who were summoned, and the family physician, Dr. Bovee, as well as the coroner, agree that death was due to acute indigestion, which superinduced paralysis of the heart. Mr. Tongue had been in unusual health, and except for occasional attacks of dyspepsia, to which he had been a subject of late years, has not complained of feeling badly this winter. He considered he was in better health than he had been in for two years past, in fact. Mr. Tongue attended a dinner Saturday evening and did not retire until a late hour. When he slept late yesterday morning, contrary to custom, nothing was thought of it. At 10 o'clock he received a call from two Oregon friends, with whom he discussed at length matters of personal and political character. During the stay of these gentlemen he remained in bed, but rose and dressed as they left, and had a light breakfast in his room. He said at the time that his appetite was not good, and complained slightly of dyspepsia. At his request his daughter, Bertha, brought him a soda solution, which he drank, and remarked that he thought that would fix him all right. He went through his morning mail, and then lay down on the couch to read the papers. His daughter joked with him slightly about being sick and too stubborn to have a doctor, but he insisted that he was not ill. A few minutes later Miss Bertha noticed that her father was breathing heavily and deeply. She became alarmed and telephoned at once for a member of physicians. Before either the doctors or his son arrived, however, Representative Tongue had passed away, having become unconscious at the time heavy breathing set in. In his late moments of consciousness he suffered nothing beyond the natural disturbance caused by an attack of dyspepsia. He had no consciousness of his true condition as he lapsed into insensibility. His end was quiet and peaceful.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., January 23, 1903, page 1 THE LAST TRIBUTE Entire State Attends Funeral Of Thomas F. Tongue Floral Offerings Completely Cover the Coffin - Many Societies to Which He Belonged Took Part in the Last Sad Rites - Hillsboro Almost Too Small to Hold All Who Attended Hillsboro, Jan. 19 - Thomas H. Tongue went to his grave yesterday with all the honor that his state could give him. Nearly all Oregon attended his funeral at Hillsboro, and at the last impressive services, the preacher said most fittingly: "It is Oregon that is mourning today, for it is Oregon that has lost a son" A committee from congress, made up of men who represented every part of the nation, was present, but the funeral ceremony was Oregon's own tribute to the dead. Hillsboro was not big enough to hold in comfort all who wanted to attend Mr. Tongue's obsequies. A special train from Portland carried down a multitude, and hundreds poured into the town from all parts of the state. Nearly all the state officials were present, and so was a majority of the legislature. And from others who could not attend, came a wreath of floral offerings that were piled mountain high over the altar of the little Hillsboro Methodist church. The coffin was fairly buried in flowers, and they too, came from all parts of Oregon. Committees representing the various societies to which Mr. Tongue belonged, were at the depot to meet the party, and they acted as an escort when the remains were taken to the court house at Hillsboro. At the court house, which had been draped in morning from tower to basement, the coffin was placed in the main corridor, and all yesterday morning a line of people with uncovered heads passed by it. The special train from Portland reached new Hillsboro at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. It brought the committee of congressman appointed by Speaker Henderson to attend the funeral. Six cars were needed to contain the others who went down from Portland on the same mission. The guests were received by 50 members of the Knights of Pythias in full uniform. The Knights formed a line with drawn swords, through which the visitors passed from the street into the court house, and acted as ushers during the ceremonies there. They were in charge of Mr. Tongue's body while it lay in state, and they mounted a strict military guard which contributed much to the impressiveness of the day's services. They surrendered the body to the Odd Fellows, but took it to the church, where Mr. Tongue and his family have worshipped for years. The distinguished assemblage simply packed the church auditorium until it was impossible for anybody in the audience to listen to the ceremonies in comfort. The escort of Knights kept the aisles open until the Odd Fellows carried the coffin in, but after that every man struggled for the best place he could get. The services in the church were short. The pastor introduced Dr. C.E. Kline to make the opening prayer, and there were many damp eyes in the audience when Dr. Kline concluded. He was for a great many years the pastor of the congregation to which Tongue belonged, and his prayer took a wider range than is usual for this reason. His eloquent appeal was, perhaps, the best verbal tribute paid to Mr. Tongue during the day. Then a passage of scripture was read by Rev. R. H. Kennedy, of the Hillsboro Congregational church, and Rev. L.E. Rockwell, presiding elder of the Methodist church in Northern Oregon, then preached the funeral sermon. During the services the Portland quartet sang a number of hymns, and were heard to special advantage in the beautiful "Lead, Kindly Light." When the church ceremonies were concluded the body was turned over to the Hillsboro Masonic body, which escorted it to the cemetery and interred it with their own picturesque ritual, Worshipful Grand Master W. F. Butcher conducting the services. Over the grave Mr. Butcher paid one last eloquent tribute to Mr. Tongue's memory, and the whole ceremony was filled with those who listened to him. The congregational delegation will return to Washington at once, and Mr. Moody left last evening, to resume his work there. For the present he will be Oregon's sole member of the national house of representatives. ---------------------- Thomas H. Tongue, who had attained state prominence long before he became a national figure, was born in England on June 23, 1844. His parents were Anthony and Rebecca (Lawson) Tongue, and he was their only child. He was educated in England until his 15th year, when his parents emigrated directly to Washington county, Oregon, where they located on a farm several miles north of Hillsboro, where the parents yet reside. Young Tongue had had fairly good advantages in the English schools and as soon as he arrived in Hillsboro he worked incessantly to give himself a finished education. Attending district school on the North Tualatin plains for several years, he finally concluded to take a collegiate course. He began school at Pacific university under great difficulties, graduating with high honors in 1868. Upon leaving the university he commenced the study of law under Hon. W.D. Hare, and so apt a scholar was he that he was admitted to the bar in 1870. He early espoused the principles of the Republican party, by which party he was several times honored by nominations to prominent official positions, serving locally as a member of the council of Hillsboro, also as mayor of that city and a member of the school board for six consecutive years. In 1888 he was elected to the state senate and served on the judiciary and other important committees. He was chairman of the Republican state convention held at Portland in 1890, and was a delegate to the national convention of the party at Minneapolis in 1892. In 1895 he was a candidate for United States senator, when McBride was elected. In 1896 Mr. Tongue was elected to the Fifty-fifth congress, defeating Binger Hermann for the nomination. During the six years that he sat in congress, Mr. Tongue did great work for Oregon. He never lost an opportunity to secure appropriations for the rivers and harbors and for other purposes. When the house committee on rivers and harbors was out here a year ago, Mr. Tongue accompanied the members on their trips up and down the Columbia, and gave them the necessary information needed.

Stranahan, when Miss Ethel Mooney deserted the ranks of maidenhood and with Mr. Roy Anderson, set sail upon the uncertain sea of matrimony. Rev. J. L. Hershner performed the ceremony which binds these two young people together for life. The parlor was decorated with Oregon grape and potted plants, and "all was merry as a marriage bell," when in walked the young couple to be made one. The bride was becomingly attired in a tan-colored dress, with relief of white at the throat and a pretty white bow in her hair. That happy couple departed on the 8:35 train for Gem, Idaho, where the groom has been employed for some time past. A good sized crowd of young people were at the station to see them off and shower them with rice and hearty shouts of good wishes for happiness on the voyage of matrimony.

Her husband, Edward Feak, was laid to rest in our midst some seven years ago. Mrs. Feak's faith was simple and trusting, her life exemplifying the religion she professed.

Through life, through sickness and in death Her faith did make her strong; An with the last faint lingering breath Redemption was her song. "Oh! let me go and be at rest; Why must I linger here? I've friends that wait among the blest, And friends I hold most dear. We know, some day, where our work in done, Though probably not so well As she who has the victory won, An in that land doth dwell; Yet God's rich mercy, just the same, Extends to you and me, An to that one that He doth claim To be from sin set free. But oh! beyond this shadow land, Where all is bright and fair, I know full well those dear old hands Will palms of victory bear; Where crystal streams through endless years Flow over golden sands, And where the old grow young and fair, I'll clasp dear grandma's hands. -- M.E.C.

Portland, April 1. - Henry Winslow Corbett, for over half a century a foremost citizen of Portland, is dead. The end came yesterday morning as the dawn crept over the eastern hills. While the light of the new day was dawning on the life of one of Oregon's greatest pioneers was ebbing away. So slowly did the waning taper of life go out that they who grieved at the bedside could scarcely perceive when it flickered last. The angel of death touched Mr. Corbett gently, and he went as he had wished to go, easily and painlessly. The end of Mr. Corbett's life so soon was quite unexpected. His health had been failing for three months past, and that he was on a downward slope was evident. The vital forces were spending themselves fast. Last Saturday the family saw the first manifestation of the approaching end. "I'm very sleepy," said the patient, but complained of no bodily suffering. The heart which for over 76 years had supplied the sentinels of the brain with life's fluid was growing feeble and the sentinels were drowsy. ------------------ Henry Winslow Corbett was born at Westborough, Mass., Feb. 18, 1827, and was the youngest son of a family of eight, six of whom are reached maturity. His parents were Elijah and Melinda (Forbush) Corbett. Mr. Corbett's boyhood was passed in Washington county, New York, where, until he reached the age of 13 he received an ordinary common school education. At that age began his business career in a store at Cambridge, remaining two years as clerk and a part of the time attending Cambridge academy. He then went home, and, after a short term at school, secured a clerkship at Salem, the county seat. After a year there he went to New York City and secured a clerkship in the dry goods store of Williams, Bradford & Co., serving their seven years. During this period he firmly established himself in the confidence of his employers, so that in October, 1850, they furnished him the necessary capital to ship a general line of merchandise to Portland, Oregon, by the way of Cape Horn on the bark Francis and Louise. He arrived in Portland March 4, 52 years ago (1851). At that time Portland contained about 400 inhabitants and five small stores. As soon as Mr. Corbett had gained a good financial start he began to take a prominent part in those enterprises which he saw were needed to develop the resources of the country. In numerous business, public, church and charitable enterprises Mr. Corbett held a prominent position. He was a director of the Oregon Railway and Navigation Co., always casting his influence in behalf of liberal management and to secure the lowest rates of transportation possible with good and quick service. He was largely instrumental in the original board of trade, and for several years was its president, and was active in the chamber of commerce. In all the important measures of these bodies Mr. Corbett was foremost in council and hearty co-operation. Mr. Corbett was chairman of the committee of one hundred, which took a prominent part in municipal affairs during the hard times of 1893-95. The Lewis and Clark centennial exposition was the last great creation of Mr. Corbett and was in many respects his favorite enterprise. His heart and soul were in it, and he gave to the management of its affairs more time and attention than to his own private business. It was his purpose to make the success of the exposition the rounding out of his long business career, and he would have succeeded if his life had been spared. Mr. Corbett is justly entitled to the honor of being the father of the exposition. Without his help and influence the local company would never have been financed, nor would the state have been so generous in its treatment of the undertaking. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., April 2, 1903, page 5 DROWNING OF RUSSELL CHASE Russell Chase, a worthy young man, aged 26 years, from Palisade, Nebraska, met his death by accidental drowning in Wind river on March 2. He was in the employee of the Oregon Lumber company and at the time of accident was on or near a splash dam. The rushing waters must have caused him to grow dizzy, for he suddenly fell into deep water beyond the reach of fellow workmen. It was thought that he was injured and rendered unconscious by striking timbers in falling. His body was recovered on a Thursday. The facts of his death pointed so plainly to accidental drowning that a coroner's inquest was considered unnecessary. At the request of his bereaved parents, sent by dispatch, his body was brought to Hood River for burial. Deceased was well educated, industrious, and of exemplary habits. He was an active member of the Congregational church at Palisade, Nebr. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. J. L. Hershner in the Congregational church, Sunday afternoon, after which the mortal remains of this promising young man were laid to rest in Idlewilde cemetery. Deceased is most highly spoken of by Mr. Larkin and family and Mr. Zolls and family who knew Mr. Chase well in Nebraska. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., April 2, 1903,page 5 IN MEMORY OF MRS. FLAGG Whereas, God has called to her eternal home our beloved sister, Anna Winton Flagg, we, her sisters in Canby Relief Corps, would express in some degree our love and appreciation of her most estimable character. We extend our sympathy to her family in their bereavement and urge them to remember how long they had her to counsel with and to love them, and how their lives were enriched by the presence of one of the best and sweetest of women. Canby Corps will miss her words of wisdom, and we have no one to fill her place. Whenever we looked at her vacant chair may we each realize that to imitate her example is to make us more worthy of that inheritance which our Creator has prepared for us. Another hand is beckoning us, Another call is given, And glows once more with Angels steps, The path that leads to heaven. MRS. E. L. SMITH, MRS. GEO. CROWELL, MRS. O.L. STRANAHAN.

Her funeral services were conducted at the Congregational church Wednesday afternoon by Rev. J. L. Hershner. A large concourse of friends and neighbors were present, and the floral offerings were rich and tasteful, almost vocally suggestive of the beautiful, gentle life she had lived. It is worthy of note that her death occurred on the evening of the fifth anniversary of her marriage to her afflicted husband. A large circle of friends, besides the members of her immediate household, a husband, a little child nearly one year old, her mother (Mrs. Pearson), her sister (Mrs. Wheeler) and one brother bear the sorrow of their loss, but not without hope of union and happiness forever.

Her name was Elizabeth, and she was known as Betsy. In her youth she was noted for her great beauty. She claimed that Phil Sheridan was for a time husband, by whom she had one child, a daughter. This daughter, under the name of Sheridan, married a half-breed named Olney, nephew of the late Judge Olney at Astoria. Both Olney and his wife are dead. They left four children who are now on the reservation. Elizabeth was married several times but had only the one child. About 15 years ago she married John Dye, a veteran of the civil war, who served in the Union army in a West Virginia regiment, probably under General Phil Sheridan in the campaigns in Virginia. John Dye is a fisherman and makes his living catching salmon and sturgeon along the Columbia and by working occasionally in the logging camps. He had great regard for his wife Elizabeth and is much grieved over her loss.

Opp, of Miss Lottie Ries, aged 22 years and 6 months. Miss Ries had been an invalid with stomach trouble and last fall came from her home at Hood River to Jacksonville, to gain a change of the air and water. She gained at first materially, but recently she was taken with brain fever and soon sank from the effects. While in Jacksonville Miss Ries made her home with her sister, Mrs. J. W. Opp, and by her quiet, winning way made many friends who deeply regret that her young life should end so soon. Her mother, Mrs. Annie Ries, and brother Frank Ries, but arrived here too late to see her alive. The funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon at the Catholic church, the last rites of burial being conducted by Rev. Father Murphy. A large concourse of friends of the family accompanied the remains to the Catholic cemetery, where the interment was made. The flower offerings were most lavish and in beautiful designs. The family deeply appreciates the sympathy and many acts of kindness shown them by the people of Jacksonville. Miss Lottie Ries was very well known in Hood River, having made her residence for nearly a year in our village. She was of a very sunny disposition, always trying to improve her mind and make of herself a woman whom all could admire and honor. Her ideals were of the very highest and purest. She leaves a mother and a large family of brothers and sisters to mourn her death so early in the bloom of young womanhood. "Let us be patient. These sever afflictions Not from the ground arise; But oftentimes celestial benedictions Assume this dark disguise. "We see but dimly through the mists and vapors, Amid these earthly damps; What seem to us but sad funeral tapers May be heaven's distant lamps. "She is not dead - the child of our affections - But gone unto that school Where she no longer needs our protection, And Christ himself doth rule. "And though at time, impetuous with emotion And anguish long suppressed. The swelling heart heaves, moaning like the ocean, That cannot be at rest. "We will be patient, and assuage the feeling We may not wholly stay; By silence sanctifying not concealing, The grief that must have way.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., June 18, 1903,page 3 DRUNKEN INDIAN SHOT DEAD A couple of Indians made things lively Thursday night on the road between Lamar's store and J. H. Filsonger's place, and Friday morning one of the red skins was found dead in front of Howell's blacksmith shop with two bullet holes in his breast. A coroner's jury found death to have resulted from gun shot wounds inflicted by an unknown person. The evidence introduced went to show that the shooting was a case of justifiable homicide. A white man did the deed but no one knows who. Thursday night two Indians, a father and son, called at Lamar's store and asked to buy cider, but "Peck" Ellison, the clerk refused to sell them any, whereupon the Indians became abusive and Peck started to put the offenders out of doors. A scuffle ensued and Peck was on the bottom with two drunken Indians on top. Mr. Lamar pulled off the brutes, but not before they had torn Peck's sweater to shreds. One of the store windows was also broken. The Indians then started up the road and in front of the K of P. cemetery met Cop Henrich. They asked him for a match and as he put his hand into his pocket the Indians grappled with him. Cop had a pair of wire pliers in his pocket with which he promptly knocked the older Indian down. The marks of the pliers were plainly visible on the forehead of the dead man the next morning. Cop finally escaped. The Indians continued their work until the wrong man was struck. It was 10 o'clock at night when three rapid shots were heard, two of which took effect in the breast of the old man at the third wounded the younger Indian in the side and forearm. Night Watchman Allen was notified of the matter early Friday morning. He immediately notified Coroner Burget, who came down from The Dalles and impaneled the following jury: Sen Fouts, Aud Winans, Frank Button, Ernest Hemman, Hans Jochimsen, Bert Stranahan. The verdict was in accordance with the above account. Indian friends of the dead man took charge of the remains and shipped the body to the John Day country, where, when alive, "Big Billy," as he was known, was considered a bad Indian. He was about 60 years old and his son John Dooley, is about 24. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., June 18, 1903, page 5 "Died" After a lingering illness of a year or more, Mrs. Humphrey Pugh died in Hood River, Oregon, June 12, 1903.

The mother was a Wishram Indian woman returning from the berry patches and her "little woman" (as the Indians put it) did well in choosing the Dalles City as her birth place instead of a wick-a-up, for besides being christened "Dalles City," she will hereafter be the mascot of the steamer and has a warm friend in the entire crew. -- Chronicle.

It appears that the young man had been playfully scuffling with his companions and had started from the side door of the lower deck to go on the outside toward the bow. He slipped into the water, and a small boat was immediately lowered and put out for his assistance, but he sank before his companions could reach him. Fred Foster was a young man of 24, and had been in the employ of the Regulator line but a few months. He was an industrious and well respected young man.

Treat died at 8:45 Wednesday evening, July 19, 1903, from paralytic stroke received the same afternoon while on the street in front of Cowell's store. He was apparently in as good health as he had been for a year, although still feeble from the stroke received two years ago. Friends carried him to his house just above the post office, where he lingered but a few hours. Mr. Treat was born in New York State 71 years ago in August. He came to California in the early days, and for 20 years he was engaged in the hardware business at Virginia City, Nevada, where he was burned out at a loss of $40,000. Fifteen years ago he was married, at The Dalles, to Mrs. William Graham, who survives him. He has no living children. Mrs. Drew of San Bernardino, a sister whom Mr. Treat had not seen for 40 years, was on her way to visit with Mr. and Mrs. Treat the very day of his death. Although 80 years old it was her intention to make a home for her brother. Mr. Treat was a chapter Mason of a Portland lodge, and funeral arrangements will be made by the Masonic order of Hood River. A man once well supplied with the world's means, he was of a sensitive, kindly nature, bearing his own burdens and sparing from tears or trouble those about him.

Mr. Bradford was 79 years old at the time of his death, and was one of Oregon's best known pioneers, and with his brothers built and operated the first portage railroad at the cascades of the Columbia, 40 years ago. With his brothers, James, Daniel and Putnam, he has been identified with the growth of the state since 1850. The Bradford's were among the first, if not the very first men to operate steamers on the Columbia River. The portage road project was the greatest accomplishment of all their undertakings, however, and was a tremendous success. Its construction cost large sums of money, for in the early days it was a much more expensive proposition that at the present time.

Mr. Idleman followed farming and stockraising very successfully until 1880, when he retired from active business life. In 1889 he followed his family to Oregon and learned to love his adopted even better than his native state. On May 14, 1846, he was united to Miss Catherine Ann Pontius, also of pioneer stock from Pennsylvania. To this union were born 13 children. Mrs. Idleman died in 1899.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 6, 1903, page 3 WM. FOSS MEETS WITH SINGULAR DEATH William Foss died early Tuesday morning, August 4, 1903, at his East Side of home, of arsenic poisoning. The circumstances of his death are very singular, though not the least of blame is attached to any one. Mr. Foss was helping T. Steinhilber the day before to spray his apple orchard, as had been his custom all summer. A short time before the dinner hour Mr. Steinhilber's little girl took a can of arsenic of soda compound out to Mr. Foss. The same can had always been used for this purpose, but Mr. Foss, in a joking manner, asked if it was coffee. "No, of course not," said the little girl, "it is deadly poison." But it seems Foss put the can to his lips and took a swallow. Mr. Steinhilber found him shortly after a deadly sick. The poisoned man was taken to the house and given quantities of milk and egg, which induced vomiting. A doctor was called and the patient was moved to his house. About 6 o'clock he became unconscious when the doctor was again called. He never regained consciousness and died early the next morning. After he became sick, Mr. Foss said he knew the liquid was poison, but declared he didn't know why he drank of it. Mr. Steinhilber says the man has been working hard since early spring from daylight to dark, which with worry and trouble had broken him down, and perhaps while thirsty, and in a fit of absentmindedness he drank the poison. William Webster Foss was born at North Adams, Mass., September 10, 1840. At the age of 14, with his relatives he located in Illinois, and in 1871 at Danville he was married to Miss Phoebe Purser. Five children came to bless the home, three of them preceding their father to the better country. In 1885 Mr. Foss was converted and united with the Methodist church at Belmont, and often he walked to prayer meeting from his home on the East Side, after the toils of the day were done. During the pastorate of Rev. Kaufman he united with the U.B. church, and has been a faithful, consistent member for these years. He leaves two sisters, two sons, and his wife, besides many friends to mourn his departure. Mr. Foss was a veteran of the civil war, having served with Company K of the 37th Illinois infantry, General Black's regiment. Funeral services were conducted at the U.B. church, Wednesday afternoon, by Elder J.T. Merrill and Rev. H. C. Shaffer, and were largely attended by his East Side neighbors. At the grave in Idlewilde cemetery, the ritualistic services of the Grand Army were conducted by members of Canby post.

Rea to witness the nuptials of H.O. Everhart and Miss Eleanor L. Miller. Mr. Everhart needs no introduction, having been formerly engaged in business in Hood River. Miss Miller also resided here for some time, but for the past two years her home has been in Kansas. The house was tastefully decorated and a happy spirit of hope and cheer was very manifest. Rev. F. R. Spaulding of the M.E. church officiated at the ceremony. A host of friends will bid them a successful journey through life.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 13, 1903, page 5 The many friends of Mrs. William Foss sympathize with the grief stricken woman, who feels deeply about loss of her husband. Mr. Foss was a kind and beloved husband. The fond affection which he bore toward his family, made the death of his two daughters a loss which bore heavily upon him. He was a hard working man and dearly attached to his wife and home. The impression has gone abroad that he might have taken the poison intentionally. The facts of the case are that he was tired and thirsty at the time. He asked the girl who brought the mixture to him in the orchard if it was coffee. Been hard of hearing he did not her reply, and in a fit of absentmindedness took a sip into his mouth before he realized what he had done. He immediately spit it out, but enough of the mixture was left to cause his death. Mr. Foss was not a well man for years, and had been troubled with heart disease. As long as he could speak he insisted no one was to blame in the matter by himself. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 20, 1903, page 5 "Married" At the residence of Mr. and Mrs. A.L.

The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 27, 1903, page 3 TWO MILL MEN MEET TRAGIC DEATHS Two fatal accidents happened in Hood River last week within 24 hours. Thursday afternoon at 4 o'clock John Johnson, an employee of the Menominee Lumber company, was drowned at the mouth of White Salmon, in Washington, while attempting to cross the stream on a boom pole. Friday morning at 8 o'clock Clifford Stuhr, while helping to shift boom sticks for the Mount Hood Lumber company, was crushed by two of the logs rolling upon him. Clifford Stuhr was the 13-year-old son of Phil Stuhr, of Hood River, foreman of the logdrivers for the Mount Hood Lumber company. He was born at Midway, LaCross county, Wis., February 10, 1890, and died August 21, 1903, at Hood River, Or., aged 13 years, 6 months and 13 days. About four years ago, with his parents, he removed from his Wisconsin home to Hood River where he has since lived. He will be sorely missed by friends and loved ones, who have the sympathy of the community in the untimely death of their son and brother. The funeral services were held Saturday at the U.B. church, conducted by Rev. H. C. Shaffer. Many beautiful floral offerings were made by friends. John Johnson came over from Lower Durham, N.B., and was a young man 24 years of age, and well educated. He was buried in the church yard at White Salmon, Sunday, August 23, 1903 . Mr. Johnson was an Odd Fellow, and his funeral was conducted by the White Salmon and Hood River lodges. Rev. Garrison of the White Salmon Congregational church preached the sermon. Norman Young of Hood River came from the same town that Johnson did, and was well acquainted with the young man. About 50 Odd Fellows attended the funeral. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 27, 1903, page 4 "White Salmon Notes" The funeral services over the remains of Mr. Johnson, the young man who was drowned in the White Salmon river, were held under the auspices of the lodge of Odd Fellows, Sunday afternoon. The church was taxed to its utmost by those who sympathies were aroused by the accident. Rev. Mr. Garrison gave an appropriate and feeling address. If our community could do so it would send to the young man's home in far New Brunswick a message of true sympathy. The Hood River Glacier, Hood River, OR., August 27, 1903, page 4 "Notes from Underwood" A sad accident happened at the mouth of White Salmon last Tuesday. John Johnson, an employee of Frost & Cameron, was drowned while at work. He and Joe Sullivan were working together and Mr. Sullivan left Johnson to go to see about some chains they had been expecting from Coulter's camp. When but a little way from the river Sullivan heard a noise, and looking around saw the young fellow in the water. He hurried back to help him, but the unfortunate young man was too far from the shore and sank before Sullivan could do a thing towards helping him. Several men tried all evening to find the body, but had to give it up until the next day. James Armstrong, another employee of the company, founded the dead man early Friday morning. He was taken to White Salmon and was buried there Sunday by the Odd Fellows. He had joined the order about two weeks before his death.

It was the 15th anniversary of the wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Thompson, and a party of their friends gathered to celebrate the event. They were invited to take dinner with Dr. and Mrs. Dumble and afterwards to spend the evening with Mr. and Mrs. Butler. It was arranged that the party should gather in the spacious hallway, and upon the arrival of the guests, receive them at the door with showers of rice. Truman Butler and another of the party went upstairs to watch from a front window the arrival of the "bridal party," and to give the alarm in time for the party downstairs to get ready to act well their part. It wasn't long until the watchers rushed downstairs and took positions by the front door where all of the folks gathered in the back parlor join them. Mr. Butler then announced, "This alarm is only for practice," and the watchers returned to their post. Someone then conceived the scheme of playing even with the watchers by locking them in the room in which they were on guard. The scheme was carried out, and the watchers were not a little surprised to hear the key turn in the lock and the retreating footsteps on the stairs. But the expected guests finally arrived, the rice was thrown and the surprise was complete. Congratulations were in order, and -- well, we had better not tell who kissed the blushing bride. When order was once more restored, games were introduced, and at 10 o'clock refreshments were served, after which Truman Butler told several of his best stories, and the party broke up, all expressing themselves as having spent a very pleasant evening, and wishing the happy couple many returns of the day.

He was a member of the Territorial Legislature of Washington in 1857. In 1877 he came to Hood River and located on the place now owned by A.C. Staten.

About 1888 he moved back to Puget Sound country, and for the past dozen years made his home at Kent, near Seattle, where he had a comfortable home.
