Tha early history of thd Grande Ropde valley was related' by Mrs. Grace Powers, of Medical Springs, Mrs. George H. Currey and Mrs. E. W, Williamson, dressed in pioneer cos tume, members of the Sons and Daughters or tho Union: County Plc neers, yesterday afternoon before the La Grande Neighborhood club. Musi cal numbers were furnished by Al fred Meyers, who played his own ac companiment; and Raymond O. Wil liams, accompanied by Mrs. Lynn Wright. : Mrs. Powers mentioned a few of the early pioneers who have made outstanding successes in Eastern .Ore gon, the late Dr. William T. Phy, of Hofc Lake, who was born at Perys Point and who was considered one of the outstanding doctors of the 'western states; Theodore Geer, the first Oregon, orn governor; Dean Smith, a La Grande boy and of pio neer ancestry, who was selected by Commander Byrd to fly to the North Pole; and several others. : Mrs, Williamson described Grande Ronde valley history, since about 1811, when the Hunt expedition came tarough the valley. From that time on the tide westward increased until in 1653, a total of 50,000 people come to Oregon. A conservative estimate puts the number who crossed before the railroad came through in 1884, at 300,000. At least 17 died for every julle of the 2000 between Oregon and the Missouri river. :. The. heroic activities of Dr. .Whit man were describod by the speaker, who also told of the last Indian bat tle fought In the Grande Ronde val Uy on July 17, 1850 by the United States soldiers under Col. Shaw. "The Indians numbered 800," she states. 'They were in the brush from about the park down to the Pierce ranch. After skirmishing the soldiers got the Indians .out of the brush and the Indians fled Into the cliffs back, of the Union station." The first settlers In Grande Ronde Valley were Mr. and Mrs. Ben Brown, their two daughters, and eight single men. who came over the mountains on Sept. 26, 1861 and built a com munity house or fort of logs about Blx miles north of La Grande. ; The overland pony express from St. Louis to San , Francisco by day and night in sunshine and storm carried . Important letters for $5.00 each, she said. The old stage coaches were dreams of elegance." . Union county was organJzbd In 1864 with La Grande the temporary county seat, and at a special election In March 1865 It was made the per manent location. On Apr" I 18, 1868 two newspapers made then- appearr ance in La Grande, the Mountain ' Sentinel . and the Blue Mountain Times. Mrs. Williamson ; described the Indian scares, the fires the es tablishment of the railroad and many other important factors in the life ol the early pioneers, . .. ? --"Mrg Currey discussed early amused .roe,nts of the pioneers.
