The funeral of Mr. Elisabeth lVrry. which occurred at the Methodist church at Hoollon on Wednesday, April 13, wa attended by a much greater number of people than could gain admittance to the building;, and they came from all part of Columbia County and from many distant points, drawn together by an earnest desire to pay tbe List tribute or respect to their good friend. Rev. Brnce WoWerton, the pioneer Christian minister of this County, who conducted babtisnial services here over forty yean ago, and who was an intimate friend of Mrs. Perry, conducted the funeral cer vices. The floral offerings were very beauititul and choice, rare cala lillies covering the coffin. In addition to the relatives thosecontribtiting flowers were: Mr. aud Mrs. Geo. W. McBride, Congre gational LadieV Aid of Umveritv Pnrk, Mr. and Mr. V. H . Dolman, B. F. Gilt ner and familv, J. Kendal Blaketley, Mr. and Mr. M. J. Scott, Mr. and Mrs. Barcliard. Mr. and Mr. G. F. Handiy, . and one of beautiful wild flowers from the children of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. La niont. Of peculiar interest at this time to those who knew Mrs. Elisabeth Perry is the following letter from Mrs. Jane K. , Smith, of Astoria, who liaJ enjoyed her trienUhip over sixty years. It as re ceived by Mr. N. A. Perry the day after Iiia mo'.tier s death : 82 WgST COMNKRI IAL ETRKKT, Astoria, April 10, 1910. Mr. X. A. Perry, Houltoo, Oregon : My Dear Friend: I am to sorry to hear of the sick' ess of my lifelotig friend, your mother. Hie stopped off and spent a day with me on ber list trip to the seaside. She so eprv, and mentally to me she seemed a wonder. Oh, it was a happy day we spent together. She had so many kind remarks to make ol all our oldtiune friends, to charitable in her feeling toward her neighbors, so considerate of all: As she was leaving the house she turned to me and mv, "Whit wcrd are you f-'otng to send to Dellta Kelly?" 1 repichvl iins-li ior nut t:. inking, and , olU Aaron and Mrs. BioyUs crniie right ocilio ma in my inmginadori, an I I thought, Am I iroinjr t-j loryet the child of tifir oltl age? My liist recollection of Elizabeth Cra ri del Perry as ill Jloomingtcn, Iowa, in my lather honse. hlie came to ste me just about the time your parents started ior Oregon. It was not long after they were married ami i uunK I was about five years old. This is the pic iuie I have in my mind: Mie was sitting in a rock ing ciiair, a'td I was attracted just as close as I could get to her, leaning on tbe arm of the chair, looking up iatn her fuee, thinking how sweet and pretty she looked as she was talking to me, I got closer and closer until 1 got my toes pinched under the rocker. At this inter view I fell in love with her and have been in love with her ever since. We came to Oregon in '47, and in 'V.f, while yourfather, my father, and Uncle Ham Kinney were aone to the mines in California, Sister Perry, with her ha be Frank, stayed at Uncle ?atu', a half mile from oar home. Theu, in this thin ly fettled country, where pioneers were all like "kinfolks," as we western peo ple used to nay, though we sometimes lived miles apart, we always "kept track" of each oiher, and have for up wards of sixty years, fche has always possessed a beautiful, lovely character. 8he was a peacemaker. "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall see God." j Pleass inclose this to vonr mother anil i tell her 1 hoi pray she may be able to make another and longer visit wnen me sunshine comes again and she is n stored o health. Give my love to your own family and I love all that ar left t'jHt retneniber me. Sincerely yours, JANE K. SMITH. ORDINANCE NO. 98. 8. Bus! neaa on the table. 6. Beading of ordinance. 7.

The only feature ol the same was Austin's catch ot a hard liua drive to riant field. ext bun day the old Portland Gun and Bike Team, playing this year under the name of the Portland Hardware Co., will be here This is one of the few teams wat debated Kt.
