Obituary
By J. E. B.
Une nice sun-shiny day recently I
wan walking by the old Sheridan
Blockhouse which is situated In the
park at Dayton when I beard a faint
mumble. At first I thought it was
the gentle rustle of the tall fir tress
swaying in the breeze. I stopped
my interest caught by the strange
life like tone of the murmur and 1
heard these words;
"Friend, another spring has arriv­
ed and it makes me sad to think
that 1 stand clothed in dust and
bleached while by sun and ruin. 1
stand unnoticed, my fame is leaving
me I feel so lonesome—I am the
Blockhouse."
The faint tremor of the words sent
a thrill through my bones, my eyes
sought the source of the words but
all I could see was the grey dingy ex­
terior of a once famous building,
from the outer wall hung an oxen,
yolk squeaking plaintively us it rub­
bed against the structure. Again I
heard the voice:
"Years ago I was built by the
strong hands of soldiers to protect
white families from red-skins. My
life was easy and peaceful for tbe
Indians proved friends. At one time
the camp In which 1 was located, on
the Grand Ronde reservation, waa
commanded by Captain Phil Sheri­
dan. who later became world famous
through tbe civil war. I was faith­
ful to my cause and ^ears later I was
heralded as a monument to pioneers
and removed to my present location
where I wus exceedingly happy. Peo­
ple brought into my two rooms many
articles connected with my early
days. People would visit me from
many places, many writing their
names upon my wafls
The long
winter has gone past, during which
I waa very lonesome. Very few times
were my doors even opened to per­
mit friends and the light of day to
enter.
"Perhaps I should not be sad, no
doubt with summer friends will
again renew my acquaintance and 1
shall meet new people—but why
have my friends forgotten me? I
am their monument into the past
and I need a coat of oil to freshen
my appearance and preserve me into
the maqy years to come."
Barn on Sims Farm
Program and Dance
Takes Fire Sunday
At Newberg Friday
The barn on the J. W. Sims farm
about three miles from Dayton caught
fire Sunday night and but for tbe
timely arrival of chemicals from
Dayton would probably have been
destroyed. As it waa, little damage
resulted except for a portion of the
roof.
The fire resulted from the explo­
sion of a gasoline can which was op­
en allowing tbe fumes to reach a
lantern hanging near.
Elizabeth
Sims received a burn on her hand
in an attempt to quench the blaze,
her brother Robert, who had brought
the lantern into the burn escaped in­
jury.
