Farley and son, of Oak land, Cal., are visiting at the home of Councilman and Mrs. W. A. Ayres. Mrs. Farley left Oakland last Satur day morning. Food was getting scarce and sanitary conditions were growing bad at the time she left home. J. W. Crider, of San Jose, write3 his son,Chauncey,that his loss will not be heavy. Twelve dwelling houses owned by him were only slightly injured. His heaviest loss was a hotel building, which was totally destroyed. R. Jacobson writes J. H. Hollister, of Dallas, that the wholesale notions and furnishing goods house of Jacob son, Nayberger & Company in San Francisco wa3 totally destroyed by fire and earthquake. The Jacobson home was also destroyed. The family spent the first night in a park, the next night at the Presidio, and are now in Oroville, where Mr. Jacobson has a store. He writes Mr. HolliBter that nearly all the earnings of his lifetime were swept away by the disaster. A. F. Toner arrived home from a six weeks' vacation in Southern Cali fornia, Saturday. He was in San Francisco when the great disaster occurred, and had a narrow escape from death. Fleeing from the hotel whpm he had been staying, he spent one day in a small park, without food or water, and the next day maae nis escape to Oakland. He says the newspaper accounts or tne aisasiei have not been exaggerated, and that only a limited idea of the extent of the loss can be gained by reading the printed reports. Aside from his never-trt-hA-fnrsrotten experience in San Francisoo, Mr. Toner had a pleasant vacation in Golden State. Mr. and Mrs. T. A. Wagner, who have been living in San Francisco for several years, write that they will re turn to Dallas to make their home as soon as they can get away from the stricken city.

The burial was held under the auspices of the Masonic order. Dr. Farley was the oldest child of the late Robert and Lydia Farley, honored pioneers of Polk county.
