The death ol two ol our citizens during
the pat wl-S. I). Sheclcy and Wtu.
Wilson occurring within three days,
being near neighbors and among the
early settler ol the Ncbalctn, ha created
a profound Impression upon the whole
community. Mr. Shccley had not been
well for atverul years, hi declining health
following a severe attack of typhoid fever
in October, 1003, contracted while out in
the hopfield ol Yamhill County. His
lust sicklies began about tlx weeks ago,
aud tlie immediate cause of his death,
which occurred on the 11th, was abscess
of the liver. Mr. Wilson' sickness wn
caused by hi getting thoroughly wet and
chilled in the cold rain week before last,
which resulted in a violent attack of In
flammatory rheumatism. For a lew days
he teemed to improve, but he suffered a
relapse, the disease extending to the
chest, spinal cord and brain. He grew
rapidly worse nnd passed away on the
evening of the 13th. Mr. Sheely't funer
al sen-ice were held at the church in
Vcmonin on Friday, and Mr. Wilson's
on Monday last, Rev. J. O. Coleman
