Roscoe Knox, Pioneer of 1853 Rosco Knox of Tost died in this city Saturday, November 14, aged 07 years and 14 days. The funeral was held Monday at Xewsom creek. He was born in Missouri, Nov. 1, ISil, and crossed the plains with his parents to Oregon in 1S53, ftt tling in Lane county, near Crcs veil, where he resided until 1SS7. lie was married to Matilda Jar.e Buoy, daughter of Capt. Laban Buoy, June 22, 1S61, she dying at her home on Newsom creek, July 1 last. Thirteen children were born to them, of whom eleven are still living: S. L. Knox, Stevenson, Wash. Carrie B. Knox.

Knox, Crook county. Lillie E Knox, Crook county. Levicv Knox, Crook county. Roscoe Knox and family moved from Lane county in 1SS7 and settled on New.om creek, whero he and his sons engaged in the sheep and cattle business. During his long illness, which extended over a period of eight 'months, he struggled with almost superhuman power against the crim rearer, and only yielded to r- a " w the inevitable when exhausted na lure gave out. Last Monday he was laid to rest by the side of his lifelong companion in the Newsom creek cemetery on the Knox ranch in the nresence of many neighbors and friends. He was a man of sterling char acter, fearless and outspoken in his convictions, honored and respected by all who knew him well. He was active in public affairs and took a great interest in the devel opment of the county. He was a generous neighbor and a kind and indulgent parent. He will loug be remembered by many friends end acquaintances. Leaves have thetr time to fall And flowers to wither at the north wind's breath, And suns to set; but thou hast all, All time for thine own, oh Death. Paulina Paragraphs. TAULINA. Nov. 17.

Lottie' Montgomery A Tribute ta a Coed Maa. In the death of Roscoe Knox, his family has lost a kind and in dulgent father and Crook county a worthy citizen and "God's greatest work, an honest man." I have known him over fifty years and know whereof I speak. A man of more than ordinary ability, he ad hered strongly to his convictions and advocated them fearlessly. An old pioneer of Lane county, his loss will be deeply felt there, as it is here. All an old friend can say is Farewell, Roscoe; peace to your ashes. J. L. Luckey. Redmond News.
