She tells of. the wagon train trip early in ivo& worn lowa to Oregon and a day's stop, in the Indian village of La Grande so known to the guides and trappers. She says, in part: - . , "We laid over one day in the Grande Ronde . valley at a place the mountain men and trappers ,'called La Grande. It was only an Indian village. , I don't remember seeing a single white person there. In fact, I think no white people settled at .La Grande till along about the time of the Civil iwar. While we laid over at La Grande, Mrs. John fMacDonnld gave birth to a little girl, whom she "named La Grande." ; A drive out over the Ginnd6 Ronde valley today would: givej- the pioneer woman who first viewed it seventy-five yeurs ago a far different picture. Tho mountain peaks. fne timber-clad slopes, the wonderful atmospheric effects thiil are peculiarly beautiful to the valley only these would thetfind unchanged. The wheat fields, the alfulfa, the orchards permanent highways, speeding automobiles, mod ern towns and cities with their appropriate signs of twenti eth century civilization these would but indicate the changes that huve taken place in the simui of but a sinirle life in Oregon. And tho seventy-five years that are to come in the year 2000 will some present-day flapper be interviewed in her easy chair, with great-grandchildren playing near, for her impressions of the Grande Ronde valley in the "early days" of '2G? We hope so. And we hope as her strange tale is read by a new generation, as it is discussed and marvelled at us the youth of today marvel at the story of La Grande as an Indian villniro in '52. that It mv an equal inspiration to their hearts and minds to accomp lish the unusual and to. pioneer anew even in the strange activities of a future civilization that cannot be foretold.
