( Company F Acquitted Themselves
j Creditably at Tae Eurampmeiit.
1 In the letter from Camp Gibtwn,
i published in Tin Enterprise last week
th'i types made it read that eight of the
company had been confined in the guard
house. This was a mistake, and not
intended, as the officers and privates of
! company F conducted themselves as
; soldiers should, and were a credit to the
first regiment as well as to Oregon City.
The mem hers of the company all ex
press themselves as highly pleased with
the result of the encampment, and are
anxiously awaiting an opportunity to
go into camp again, although there is
some com plaint about the fare furnished
them, and state tiiat too large a propor
tions of the members were placed on
guard duty at one time which did not
leave theih a sufficient number for proper
drilling exercises. On the whole, the
members of F company are very favor
ably impressed with the annual encamp
ment plan, and it is probable that there
will be another one next year, which
may possibly Inst two weeks. If it is
decided to hold another encampment
next year, Canby and other Clackamas
county points should put in their claims.
When company F came inarching home
lajt Fri Jay evening rigged out in thtir
new dress uniforms, they were the cyn
osure of all Jeyes.
On Monday evening Company F
paraded the streets, and gave evidence
of their elficient drilling by Capt. War

Chief of 1'oiii e l'urdom owns a farm i
near Molalla Corners, which is uudcr
the management of his brother, A. W.
Purdom. On this place is a half mile
track, which a number ot Clackamas
county horsemen use (or training their
horses. A shoit time sinco, William
Henderson, formerly employed in h
liveiy stable in this city, went lo the
farm anil engaged hoard with Mr.
Purdom, also stable room for his horse
and privelege of training the annual on
thetiack. Hetnleison is evidently pos
sessed of a very vicious temper, as he stole
out a butcher ki.ile urn! was only pre
vented from hiib'hering a Mr. Slesart
with it by the latter's coolness. This out
break of temper was caused hy ul in. ml no
provocation. Two or three days later,
lie attempted to raise a row with Mr.
Purilom, whom all his Hcipmintances
know is of a very gi-ninl disixmition
Not succeeding he tripped In in ilnvui
and began healing him over the head
with a bottle which broke and t ut his
right eye completely out, which hung
outside of the socket. ). Watkins, of
Portland, who happmied to he m that
neighborhood, was called und exiraiti-d
the eye, and Mr. l'urdom, who was in
the city during the week is getting along
as well as could he expected. Hender
son was arrested and brought before
Justice Fouts last Saturday, and was
placed in the county jail in default ol
(.'MX) bonds, and will have an examina
tion before the justice Monday. Hend
erson stands a good chance of a long
term in the penitentiary for his murder
