EPWORTH LEAGUE
MEMBERS ENJOY
PICNIC SUPPER
The Epworth League social, thanks
to the careful arrangements of the
Social Department,
proved a vers
stimulating and enjoyable affair, The
members, after assembling at the
church
proceeded
in
detachments
numbering sig or eight to a spot select
ed for the affair. The advance guard,
consisting of six brave Amazons, scout
ed In a southerly direction along the
borders of 84th street at lhe point
where this street narrows to a lovers
lane.
Threading this embowered
pathway these brave adventurers hap
pened upon the track of the Estacada
car line which they followed to Ken
dall station. Ione LeGrant had an ex
citing adventure
with
the “cattle
guarda” or cow catchers as she called
them. Rosalind, venturing to walk
upon the waters found them as de
ceptive as a June day In Portland.
The whole company, following this
advance
guard,
finally
encamped
on the greensward bordering John
son Creek, where private Lorens by
his magic touch soon produced a roar
ing campfire by the side of which the
little army encamped, forgetting the
dangers and hardships of the Journey,
while listening to the tune of sizzling
wienies, boiling coffee and roasting
marsh niel lows..
The tall form of A. Lincoln Arnest
cast long shadows as the welkin re

Gresham people were shocked and
saddened by the terrible accident
which occured Saturday evening at
the Main street crossing of the Bull
Run line, when Mr. and Mrs. Allan
Tiller were struck and killed by the
4:50 car for Bull Run.
The young people were in a small
roadster and were going north on
Mam street, headed for Troutdale to
see Mr.
Tiller's
mother.
No ono
knows whether Mr. Tiller saw the ap
proaching car and tried to beat It to
the crossing or whether he neither
saw or heard the car until it was too
late to stop.
The car bad whistled for the cross
ing and it is said was traveling <-t
more than the usual rate of speed
owing to the fact that it was late.
The car struck the light car shoving
it ahead for about 125 feet before It
was pushed off the track. It is said
that the car went more than 100 foci
before It was brought to standstill
This Is probably accounted for by
the fact
that the
crankcase
wax
broken and the engine and oil tank
broken at the fmt smash.
The oil
was spilled upon the track and thia
condition prevented the brakes from
holding the car though they were
set.
Both Mr. and Mrs.

dragged along with the auto almost
the whole distance and were terribly
injured. Mr. Tiller lived only a few
minutes after the accident but Mrs.

lis where everything

waa
done for them.
One of the sad features of the acci-
dent was the fact that Mrs. Tillers
mother, Mrs. Anna Hamlin, was on
eye wittneas to the accident and was
one of the first to reach the acene.
Mrs. Hamlin was herding the family
cow along the street in front of the
J. N. Clauahan place when the young
people passed her calling back that
they would soon be back.
Watching
them out of sight Mrs Hamlin saw
the Bull Run car come into sight and
saw them shoved along in front ot
.he train. Mrs. Hamlin was pros
trated by the shock although she has
been very patient in her trouble.
The
machine
was
completely
wrecked, witnesses saying that the
engine was scattered all along the
track.
This is one of the most tragical
accidents that has happened hero
for several years.
Not
since
the
death of Mr. and Mrs Lindsay and
Miss Helen Metzger has Gresham wit-*
nessed such a tragedy.
