J. L. Woodell has - returned from
Wapello county. Iowa, where he has
been for the past two and half

the west to April, 1862. Of course, he
was greatly pleased to again see the

Courier will give our readers a full

too heavy to be removed from the
earth, as a quantity of water had
accumulated In It. The remains were
transferred Into a zinc case made for
the purpose and reburial was in the
Bladensburg cemetery.
, The removal of the remains of Mrs.
Woodell takes one back over a period
of more than SO years and brought to
Wapello county, her son, who for half
a century has been a resident of Ore
gon and away from the place of his
birth. James L. Wodell and J. A.
Woodell of La Grande, Ore., first saw
the light of day on the homestead,
where at this time the disinterment
took place. In 1862 the Woodell
family left for Oregon where they
have resided since, having won for
themselves honored and respected
places in the communities In which
they have made their homes. '
At the timo of the death of Mis
Woodell, there being no cemetery hi
the township, the remains were in
terred on the Wodell farm, where it
was planned to make the cemetery.
The son, James, arrived a few days
ago from Oregon to have the remains
properly Interred In the Bladensburg
cemetery. At the reburial were pres
ent three who were present at the
original funeral service, the son,
lames L. Woodell, L. D. Yeager,
brother of the deceased, and his wife,
Mrs. Yeager. Ottumwa Courier.
