LAMAR TOOZE HERE TOMORROW NIGHT 1851, IS DEAD Mrs O. O. Veateh. Mrs. J. E. Bedford He Is Another Soldier Who Does Not and Mrs. Robert Martin Arc Surviving Children. Expect Much From League , of Nations. Nels Fret Chrimnnn, member of the well-known Campbell Chri*iuiin family of Lane county pioneers ami himself n pioneer o f IK5I, died Kunday of a complication of discuses after an ill ness o f 10 days, although he had been in fuiliug health for a number of years. The dute o f the funeral has not been net pending the arrival from Alaska o f a daughter, Mrs. Robert Martin, now on her way here. Mr. Chrisman was born Jan. 29, 1845, in Andrew county. Mo. He came to Oregon with his parents in 1M51 and wu* married at Eugene Hept. 24, lMtiti, to Miss Melissa Brown, ulso n pioneer of 1851, but the two did not become acquainted until after their arrival here. Tho couple settled ut Dorena about 5(1 years ago and except for 10 year* spent at Creswcll have lived in this vicinity since that time. The widow and the following children sur­ vive: Mr*. O. O. (Lucinda) Veateh, of thi* city; Mr*. J. K. (Anna) Bedford, o f Dorena, und Mrs. Robert (Lorena) Martin, o f 1’ortland. Meott Chri»man, o f Dorena, and On be Chrisinun, of Eu gene, are surviving brothers. Chris. (.'hri*inan, Major Chrisinun, Mr*. Mary J. Walker and Mr*. Ann Cathey, broth­ er* and sister* o f Mr. Chrisinun, who have died, wore well known among the pioneers. There were few people in Oregon who hud not heard of the Tooze twins even before their famous war record and there are practically none now who have not been touched by the romance and sadness of tbeir service in France, where l^-nlie made the su­ preme sacrifice. The survivor of the twins, Lunar, has u story to tell that must bo uf entrancing interest and there is little doubt a crowded audi­ torium will greet him upon his appear- unce here tomorrow evening at the high school. Another romance in the life o f Lieu­ tenant Tooxc will culminate October 11 when Miss Marie Mbeahan. an Oregon City girl, will become his wife. Their acquaintance was made at the Univer­ sity o f Oregon. Lieutenunt Tooae will speak inti­ mately of world conditions growing out o f the war and is another soldier who does not believe too much should be expected from the proposed league o f nations. Lieutenant Tooze served wich the ItMth infantry o f the famous 91»t Wild West division and was in the ser­ vice for 27 months. This division made, ii record for stubborn fighting, for ad­ vancing on the enemy's positions and for taking thousands o f prisoners.
