Missing Women Found
After Week in Woods
PORTLAND (APi Two
women, lost t'or a week in a wil
derness area of the Colombia
River Corg \ were found alive
and well Sunday.
Plucky Mrs. Avera Ferguson.
f>3. and Mrs. Bernice Sharkey,
75. both Portland, were trying to
fight their way out of the deep
underbrush when found by Sher
iff’s deputies.
In broken sobs the women re
kited how they had t>een trapped
in sight of civilization with no
food and little water.
Mrs. Ferguson, the younger
woman, insisted they were not
lost. “I know where we were." j
she said. "I just couldn't get us
out of there, but we certainly
were not lost."
The two w omen had been
missing since last weekend when i
they went for a drive in the
Larch Mountain area 20 miles
east of here.
Their car, bogged down in mud
on a side road, was found last
Wednesday, and since then an
intensive search of the area had
been underway.
They were found attempting
to climb hand-over-hand up the
face of a steep cliff.
Mrs. Sharkey was in better
condition than the younger wom
an. Mrs. Ferguson apparently
had been taking some type of
medication before becoming lost.
Doing without it for the week
had weakened her.
They were taken to a Portland
hospital where their condition
was described as “not bad at
all." Both were expected to be
released in a few days.
