IX MKMORIAM.
MERRILL. At Deer Island, February
21st, ItHX), at 12:30 noon, Mrs. Eliza
beth Merrill, widow of Joeeph Merrill,
who preceded her to the spirit world
many vears ago.
Mrs. Merrill had been in poor health
for some time. She had suffered much
from rheumatism, and for a number of
days before her death she suffered very
greatly, the rheumatism having gone to
the heart. Everything that medical
skill and loving care and attention could
devise was done for her, but all to
no avail; her life work was finished
and she paBsed to her rest surrounded
by children and other loved ones. Mrs.
Merrill was born March 6, 1820, in
South Carolina. She was the daughter
of Lemuel and Rebecca Freeman. She
' was married in 18-10 to Joseph Merrill
at Chillicothe, Ohio, by Allen G. Tlinr
inan. They moved to Illinois in 1840,
where they remained nntil 1847, when
they joined an emigrant train and with
ox teams crossed the plains and came to
Oregon. When they arrived at Fort
Boise their teams gave out and Mrs.
Merrill, who had two little children,
came the rest of the way on horseback,
carrying one child and" strapping the
other to the saddle on another horse.
When she arrived here she was tired
almost to death and rejoiced to find any
place to rest, although it was in a wild
country thousands of miles from home.
They spent their first winter at Linn
ton, in a "rail pen," as they called
them. One night her husband was gone
and she had to keep a fire burning be
fore the door all night to keep the big,
gray wolves from coming in and devour
ing the children. At another time when
she and the little ones were alone the
Klickitat Indians came into their cabin
and frightened her and the little ones
fearfully, as she expected they would all
be murdered. They built a great fire
near the house and went away. That
night she extinguished the fire and
barred the doors, then spent the night
in fear and dread, expectiii(i the Indians
to return. In those days food was hard
to obtain. Mr. Merrill traded his wed
ding coat to a man who expected to
le married, for a few bushels of pota
toes. There were but four white people
in all this part of the country : Captain
H. M. Knighton, was proprietor at St.
Helen?, which was then called Plym
outh, in honor of Plymouth Rock; Jos
eph Caples lived at Columbia City,
and Francis Perry and family in Yamhill
county, afterwani moving near St. Hel
ens. Mrs. Perry and Mrs. Merrill were
bosom friends for fifty-two years. Jos
eph Cunningham was located at War
rior's Point. Indians were plentiful
along the river. At that time there
were but two or three houses in Port
land. Oregon had a provisional govern
ment, which was then composed of all
west of the Rocky mountains and all
north of the forty-second parallel.
There was no communication with the
East was only by private means, hence,
one could write" a letter, not hoping to
get an answer in lean than twelve
months. The first mail came officially
Jn September, 1800.
Mrs. Merrill was a good, kind woman,
loving mother rind an enteemed neigh
bor. There are living of the children,
Edwin, Norman and Alonzo A. Merrill,
Mrs. Emma George and Mrs. Jennie
McDonald. The family are assured of
the loving sympathy of a large circle of
friends. The funeral sermon was
E reached by Rev. Ray Palmer, of the
econd Baptist church, of Portland,
whose wife is a niece of the deceased,
her father, Dr. John B. Freeman, of
Missouri, being the only surviving mem
ber of the brothers and sisters of the
deceased, four of the family having
died in tlus last year and a half James
Freeman, Jennie Collins, Miss Mary
Freeman, of Colorado, and Mrs. Merrill,

Ali BKKMON.
The following wrmon was delivered by
Rev. Ray rainier, pastor of the Scond
Baptist church, Portland, upon the death
of Mrs. Elizabeth Merrill, of Deer Island.
Text: Rev. 14:13; "Blessed are the
dead which die in the Lord, from hence
forth vea saith the spirit, they rest
from their labors and their works do
follow theiu."
Mr. Pointer spoke as follows: "The
dead! The dead I Have you thought
of all that means? The great majority
of all who have lived are dead. A few
days ago, in contemplating the words
'The world passeth away and the lust
thereof, but he that doeth the will of
God abidelh forever,' I wna walking
through a cemetery. I saw the monu
ments of the the rich and the humble
slabs of the poor. I rend the epitaphs
of those who had slept in the dust for
lifty years; of those who had lived and
laughed and loved as we do now. My
visions widened and I saw procession
after procession wending their way to
the grave. I saw the earth one vast
cemetery, and old ocean, poured around
all, soeiiicd to chant tlio sad requiem
above the sepulcher of the race. I saw
the worlds passing away; 'the sun grow
old, and the books of the judgment day
unfold'. 1 heart! the belia of eiernity
liuging. Thev were tolling the knell of
fleparted worlds. All seemed passing
away. I heard the tinsels singing in
minor key: 'The world passoth away
and the lust thereof,' and then I saw
riding from the clouds, a great mul
titude which no man could number.
The angels changed the key and I
heard them sing the hallelujah chorus
of the sky, saying, 'These are they who
have conie tip out of great tribulation,
and have washed their robes and made
them while in the blood of the Lamb!'
" "tile sed are the dead which die in
the Lord from henceforth,' that is, since
Christ came, 'he has brought life and
immortality to light!'
"Before "the coming of Christ the
world had a fearful dread of death.
Materialism had settled like a pall upon
the earth. Death was made somber
with black plumes, and clouds of mys
tery shrouded the grave. Though
mighty, the arch-antrels wing was not
strong enough to fly over the heights
between eternity ami time and tell the
story. To the" wisest men, euch as
Plato, Aristotle and Socrates, the life
beyond was a dim, shadowy existence.
In" the ages gone by, Job had asked
the question, 'If a man die, shall he live
again?1 Adown the ages that question
had echoed from century to century, as
the human voice echoes from canyon to
canyon, 'Live again? Live again?' In
the fullness of time Christ came. 'He
brought life and immortality to light.'
He lived as a bi-world being. As one
sees the mountains and forests reflected
in the crystal Lake, so Jesus saw the
things of time as the mere shadows of
eternity. He lived in a world of tears,
Bin and sorrow, but he saw just above
it a world forever freed from all these.
He saw humanity as a sea, tossed by
tempest and storm., He saw just above
'the sea of glass, mingled with tire.'
He was a citizen of two worlds. Though
crucified and buried, on the third day
he arose again. Forty days thereafter
he ascended to the right hand of God
throngh gates of pearl, but he left those
gates wide open, and ever since the
golden light of immortality has been
streaming down.
As I came down the Columbia this
morning, in the splendid steamer, the
clouds of fog huug low. obscuring the
sun and the hills around. As I studied
the wonders of immortality revealed in
Christ, suddenly, almost, the clouds
parted and rolled back over the moun
tains and the sunbeams came pouring
down and penetrated the windowB of gold,
Vermillion and blue, and fell in many a
varied hue npon ns. And, in it all I be
held a symbol of "the sun of righteous
ness pouring through gates of pearl,'
the beautiful and blessed light of im
mortality! Marvelous Indeed, was the teaching of
this wondrous doctrine upon the Roman
empire. First the aoostles of our Lord
caught the inspiration and we hear
them say, 'We know if the earthly
house of our tabernacle were dissolved
we have a building of God, a house not
made with bands, eternal in the heav
ens.' They defied death, crying, 'O
death where is thy sting, O grave where
is thy victory ? So soon as they began
to proclaim it in the empire, king and
peasant, master and slave alike, began
to feel tiie dignity inherent in man and
to stand in awe of man's responsibility
to his God. Everything was chaneed ;
law, society and human life. The mul
titudes began to feel that God is more
than a cook or a grower ol wheat and
potatoes to feed the animals of a day;
that he is the 'everlasting father, and
man is made in his image.' No wonder
the poet can now sing:
"There is no death,
The stars go down l rise upon a fairer
shore,
And bright in heaven's jeweled crown
They'll Bhine forever more.
"There is no death,
The dust we tread shall change beneath
the Bummer's shower,
To golden grain, or luscious fruit,
Or rainbow-tinted flower.
"There is no death,
An angel form walks the earth with si
lent tread.
He bears away our best loved things,
And then we say, they're dead.
"But ever near us though unseen,
The dear departed spirits tread,
For all the boundless universe is life,
There are no dead."
"But again, "they rest from their
labors.' When I came in and saw the
words 'At Rest' upon the white
plate of the casket, I said, nothing
could be more appropriate. Of all words
in any language, there is none that
means" more than that little word
"Rest." When the roseate fingers of
morn open the gates of day, mother
says to the children, 'how did you rest
last night, my dears?' The physician
coincs and asks, 'how did the patient
rest last night?' Rest means life and
health. But surely in this life we find
but little rest. The clouds that float
above us, the billows that break upon
our golden chores, and the stars that
hurry onward, all speak to us as sym
bols of the restlessness of man. Men
travel the world around, they dig in the
deep mines for gold, they enter the halls
of learning and feast in palaces of pleas
ure, seeking for rest, hone but Christ
can give rest. The Master slept in the
ships on storm-tossed Gallilee. The
spray of the sea bedewed his hair, but
he awakened not until the disciples,
becoming fearful, cried out, 'Master,
careBt thou not that we perish ?" And
lie rose and rebuked the winds and said,
'peace! be still.' And there was a great
calm. Today he stands upon the ships
cf human life, and lifting his hand on
high, speaks with imperial authority to
the contending elements of life, saying,
'peRce, be still.' And then, extending
arms of love to all men, he cries, 'come,
come, come, all ye that are heavy laden,
and I will give you rest. O take that
sweet word, 'rest', and crowd it full of
all that you can make it mean, and
then multiply it by a thousand, and
then believe "that your departed loved
ones have entered into all of that.
'Their works do follow them.' Our
departed sister and friend belonged to
that most honored class known M pio
neers. Do we realise bow much we owe
them? Glorious heritage this, the
(treat empire of the West. "Westward
the star of empire takes its way,' and
today it is poised above the glorious
state's lieslde the sea. This is destined
to be the giant pivot around which shall
revolve the destinies of nation. From
these shores shall sail the white-winged
ships of commerce that shall keep the
proud waves of the 'old Paeiiie' in per
potuul motion. Here wo have purpliiist
vinevarda which far surpass those of
F.sclial, and golden wheat nVlds, incom
parably greater than those of EBdralon,
vast flint productions surpassing by far
the orchards of Solomon. Should his
toric llermou be placed beside our Im
mortal Hood, his head would scarcely
touch the hem of Hood's snowy gar
ment. Hero our valleys are rich with
fertility and our rivers flow singing to
the seti. But how came us to poses so
gootllv a heritago? Why, it is Ihv
cause'our noble pioneers, bidding fare
well to the old home and loved ones,
came across plains and deserts, encoun
tered wild beasts and wilder savages,
crossed all but unsurmountable moun
tains and treacherous streams, and came
and laid the foundation of this empire
beside the sea, in loneliness and tears
and often in blood. Young man, when
thonmeetosta pioneer, take thy shoes
from thy feet, for ground on which thou
standest is holy ground.
But again, "her works do follow her,
because she was n mother. Of all the
sweet words of earth, none are sweeter
than that word, 'mother.' How they
live again in the lives of their children.
But four years did my angel mother live
after I saw the light, but those years
were sufficient for her to impress her
soul upon me as the die stamps the coin.
Your mother was quiet and gentle in
lifo, other women go forth to public
service and their voices are heard plead
ing eloquently that human wrongs may
be righted; but who shall say which of
the two is more of a queen 1 Is it not
true that the 'band that rocks the
cradle rules the world.' 'Her inlluence
was Bilent, vou say? Are not the
mightiest forces of the universe silent?
Who hears the golden buckets of the
sun as he dips the waters from the sea
and pours them into the reservoirs of
theskv? Who heas the chariot wheels
of the earth as he rolls in his shining
orbit arou nd the sun ? ' Her works shall
follow her.' You will bear her voice in
the zephyrs of spring, and see her eyes
of blue in the sky above. In balls of
memory shall be treasured all the
lessons of truth and wisdom she in
stilled. She will live in your better
thoughts and butter selves through all
the years to come, and as yon come to
the evening of life as it was with her
so it will bo with you, among the last
names you will lisp will be 'mother.'
Our departed sister wag not a member
of any church, and yet she was; she
belonged to that larger church com
posed of all those who love our Lord
Jesus Christ. She had not been bap
tized beneath the crystal wave, and yet
she hnd been baptiszed in the great
sweet spirit of the Master. She was of
that number of whom our Redeemer
spoke when lie said, 'Other sheep have
I which are not of this -fold, them also
I must bring and there will be one fold
and one shepherd.' She lived away out
here in close touch with the great heart
of nature, fche worshipped God sur
rounded by majestic mountains, and
where through the silver notes of crystal
streams and the melodious voices of all
nature, she looked up and worshipped,
saying, 'The Lord is in his holy temple,
let all the earth keep silence before
him.' 'Messed are the dead which die
in the Lord, yea saith the spirit they
rest from their labors and their works
do follow them."
