DEATH OF P.F. BRADFORD

     Putnam F. Bradford, whose death occurred at his late residence in this city, at 7 o'clock Tuesday evening, Dec. 30, 1901, caused by a complication of diseases incident to old age, was born in the famous Berkshire Hills - at Sheffield, Mass., on May 25, 1827, making his age at death, 74 years, 7 months and 5 days.
     Mr. Bradford came from the most honored ancestry of our country, being the seventh lineal descendant of Governor William Bradford of Plymouth colony. All his ancestors bore an honorable part in the development of our national life. His father was a Congregational minister, and for 40 consecutive years was the stated pastor of one church, at Sheffield, Mass.
     In 1849, Mr. Bradford, associated with others, purchased a small ocean craft, and in it sailed from Boston around Cape Horn to San Francisco, the trip occupying six months. After mining in California several years, deceased came to Oregon and soon became interested in the Oregon Steam Navigation Co., doing business mostly on the Columbia river. This company did a large transportation business during the 50's and amassed fortunes for its owners. During those busy years of traffic, Mr. Bradford was a familiar figure at Portland, Oregon City, Vancouver and other places, and besides superintending the work of a large transportation company, was the principal mover in building of the railway on the Washington side from the lower to the upper cascades, and also the historic river steamers Hassalo, Oneonto and Mary P. Flint, the latter being the maiden name of his mother. He was associated in business enterprises with such men as Jacob Kamm, Capt. Ainsworth, R.R. Thompson, W.S. Ladd and others who became the leading capitalists of the Northwest. In 4865 the Oregon Steam Navigation company was disposed of, and thereafter Mr. Bradford lived for some time in Massachusetts, as well as in California. He also developed and carried on large mining enterprises in Idaho, and near Baker City.
     For about 25 years previous to coming to Hood River, in 1896, Mr. Bradford lived near Portland, and was engaged in fruit growing. 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. His with a long, active and busy life. Funeral services were conducted by his pastor, Rev. J. L. Hershner, at the Congregational church on Wednesday, at 10 a.m., with interment in the family plot at Idlewilde.

DEATH OF H.K. HINES

     Dr. H. K. Hines died at his residence in University Park, January 19, 1992, of grip, rheumatism and complications.
     H. K. Hines, D.D., the youngest of twelve children of James and Betsy (Round) Hines, was born in Herkimer county, New York, in 1828. He was a brother of Gustavus Hines, a well known Oregon missionary. His ancestral line, on his mother's side, clearly traced back to Edward, of England, through Lawrence Wilkinson, from whom Mr. Hines was the fourth descendant. His grandfather, Bertrum Round, was and ensign and lieutenant in the revolutionary war. On his father's side, her was a descendant of the Hopkinses, of Rhode Island, and of the Churches of Massachusetts, who came from England in Governor Winthrop's fleet in 1630 and landed at Plymouth. His early life was spent in Oswego county, New York, to which his family emigrated when he was three years of age. In his 14th year he joined the church, and before he was 16 he was license to exhort. Early in his 16th year he was licensed to preach.
     In December 1852, he was transferred by Bishop Waugh to the Oregon conference, and the following summer crossed the plains with an ox team, reaching in Portland October 3, 1853, to which charge he had been appointed by Bishop Ames at the first session of the Oregon annual conference.
     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.

DEATH OF J.B. CONDON

He was twice elected to the legislature from Wasco county and served two terms as mayor of The Dalles. At the time of his death he was the oldest practicing attorney in Eastern Oregon. The Mountaineer says: "Judge Condon was a genial gentleman, one whom it was a pleasure to know, and one who had a large circle of friends throughout the state.

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 Dalles Chronicle of Monday says: "Much sympathy is expressed for Mr. and Mrs. Truman Butler in the loss of their infant son, Leslie Leamer. Had he been with them two years instead of two months they could not have been more attached to him nor grieved more over his loss. The little ones seemed to feel slightly ill on Friday and Saturday morning, but in a few hours grew suddenly worse and died about 2 o'clock, the trouble being congestion of the stomach. Accompanied by Leslie Butler and Miss Carrier they arrived on the noon train yesterday from Hood River, and were met by a number of their friends who accompanied them to the cemetery, where the little one was laid to rest in the Butler lot. Rev. D.V. Poling offered prayer and Messrs. Crandall, Davenport, Poling and Northrop sang "My Faith Looks up to Thee." The tiny grave was a bank of flowers offsetting the snowy surroundings.

     A terrible accident occurred at the railroad camps, about five miles below the city this morning (Feb. 7th). A man by the name of Gleason was engaged in thawing out giant powder in a tent in which the power is kept, just below the company's camp, when an explosion occurred. He had about 150 pounds of powder lying on benches and the terrible force of the explosion can be imagined. There was hardly enough of the tent and its occupant left to tell the tale. Portions of the body were picked up 400 feet from the scene of the occurrence, and many members of the body were not found at all. Would was sent to the city, and the remains were brought to Crandall & Burget's undertaking rooms this afternoon. Little is known of the unfortunate man other than he has been working for the company the past two months and seem to be a worthy man, steady and industrious. He was about forty years of age. - Dalles Chronicle.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

     The death by drowning of the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L. A. 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.

"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 doctor in charge thinks the chances are favorable for the child's recovery. Her mother, Edith Potter Davidson, died at the same hospital two years ago.

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.

DROWNING OF GEORGE TENOLD

     George, the 12-year-old son of N.G. Tenold, was drowned in the slough near the ice house below town, about 11 o'clock, Wednesday morning, while in swimming with a number of other boys of his age. A younger brother gave notice of the drowning to the parents, a short time after the accident. Assistance was secured and a number of people hurried to the scene. The body was found by George Smith in four feet of water, an hour or two after death, and carried to the undertaking parlors.
     Funeral services were held Thursday and the body buried the same afternoon at White Salmon.

DROWNED AT LYLE

     C.A. Francis and James Gervais of Mount Tabor were drowned in the Columbia near Lyle, Tuesday afternoon of last week. The Francis family were camping near Lyle, accompanied by the Gervais boy, and Tuesday afternoon Mr. Francis, his son James Gervais were fishing in Morgan creek. 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.

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."

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.

DEATH OF MRS. 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.

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. They will be at home to their many friends at E. 9th St., Portland, after September 6. J.B.

DEATH OF VAN JOHNSON

     Van Johnson, an old resident of Hood River, died at his place, seven miles southwest of town, Friday, September 12, 1902. He was found in his orchard the evening before, helpless from paralysis. Mr. Johnson was a native of Finland. He traveled extensively over the world and came to America probably 30 years ago. After several years spent in the East and South, he came to the Pacific coast and settled in Hood River 18 or 20 years ago. He was a man of good education in his native language, was a great reader and was well informed. About 15 years ago he was married in Hood River, but later was divorced from his wife. He left no known relatives in America. He was the owner of a fine farm and engaged in growing apples, strawberries and hay. About two years ago he made his will, appointing Chris Dethman his administrator. In a later will he left half of his estate for the benefit of the poor of Hood River and named Henry Prigge as his administrator. Van Johnson was 66 years old. He was a man of generous impulses, good-natured and honorable in his dealings with men. The funeral was held Sunday at, at 2 o'clock, Rev. J. L. Hershner conducting the services, and burial was made in Idlewilde cemetery.

     Mrs. John L. Henderson and son and her sister Mrs. Nina Scott and daughter, left New Orleans last Sunday evening over the Southern Pacific for Hood River. The party is due to arrive in Portland Thursday. Mrs. Henderson and child have been absent 11 months, at the bedside of Mrs. Henderson's mother in New Orleans, La., and at the country residence of her father, Mr. Grimes, at Bay Saint Louis, Miss., on the Gulf of Mexico. Her mother died on August 30, last, and during all these months her daughters have been her nurses. Miss Laurie Grimes, another sister of Mrs. Henderson, lives with Col. Elliott Henderson, uncle of our townsman, John L. Henderson, at Pass Christian, Miss., and the youngest daughter, Miss Lulu Grimes will keep house for her father at Bay Saint. Mrs. Scott and daughter come to make their home with Mrs. Henderson. The brother, Wm. Grimes, is in business in Biloxi, Miss., on the Gulf. 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.

OBITUARY

     Died at the home of John Lawless -- the old Straight homestead -- on Monday morning, November 17, Mrs. Emma Loretta Dorman, sister of Mrs. Lawless. She was born at Plainview, Macoupin county, Illinois, September 1, 1878, and was 24 years, 2 months and 16 days old. She was the youngest daughter of E.M. and Mrs. H. J. Dorman. Of her family there is left her father, two sisters and four brothers. Mrs. Lawless and Emma left their old home and came to Hood River last January -- the one to be married, the other to make a last fight with consumption. The family and friends do not mourn as those who have no hope, for Emma became a Christian when sixteen years old and died peacefully, quietly trusting in the Lord. After bidding them all goodbye, her last words were, "I'm going home to Jesus." She has gone to a better country than even Hood River. Funeral services were held at the house Tuesday at 2 o'clock, conducted by Rev. Troy Shelley, and the burial was at Pine Grove cemetery. S.
