NOTED PIONEER WOMAN
DEATH OP MRS. RHODA. CARPEN
TER IIEXDKRSOX.
She Left Eight Children, 34 Grand-
children, and lO Great-Grandchildren.
Mrs. Rhoda Carpenter Henderson, one
of the oldest and best-known of Ore
gon's pioneer women, died of old age,
Tuesday, at the home of her daugh
ter. Mrs. Edward Falling, 383 West
Park street. She leaves eight chil
dren, who are: Mrs. George H.
Murch, otf Coburg: Mrs. M. P. Deady,
Mrs. Edward Falling, Mrs. John Catlln,
and Mrs. C. C. Strong, of Portland; John
Henderson, of McMinnville; James Har
vey Henderson, of Salem, and William
Henderson, who lives on Puget Sound.
Mrs. Henderson had 34 granchildren, of
whom Ave were born to Mrs. Murch,
three to Mrs. Deady, eight to Mrs. Catlln,
Tour to Mrs. Strong, nine to Mrs. Falling,
one to Mrs. John Henderson, two to Mrs.
William Henderson and two to Mrs.
James Harvey Henderson. There are 10
great-grandchildren, of whom two were
born to Mrs. Hazzard. six to Mrs. T. N.
Strong and two to Mrs. E. N. Deady.
Mrs. Henderson was born in Shelby
County, Kentucky, December 17, 1S15. Her
parents, John and Betsy Holman (Duval),
were natives of Vlrlglnia. She was mar
ried to Robert Henderson in Clinton
County. Mo., February 12, 1S34. In 1S-K5,
Mr. and Mrs. Henderson crossed the
plains to Oregon, coming by way of the
Applegate route and the big canyon. Mrs.
Edward Falling was born while her par
ents were on the way to Oregon. The
trip was a rough one, and the Henderson
party was a week getting through the
canyon.
Arriving In Oregon, with wife and five
children, Mr. Henderson took up a dona
tion land claim of 640 acres on the Yam
hill River, about three miles north of
Amity, Yamhill County. The land was
Judiciously selected, and became noted as
one' of the best farms In an exceptionally
rich agricultural district. Mr. Hender
son was an able business man, and gave
his property careful management. The
Kentucklan's love for fine horses was
second nature with him. and he had not
been long in Oregon when he astonished
his neighbors by appearing astride of a
horse whose mettle and poise marked it
for an animal of superior quality From
that day forward Robert Henderson was
noted for his fine stock. On the Yamhill
County farm the Hendersons lived the
simple life of pioneer people and pros
pered because they gave intelligent man
agement to their business affairs. They
were always counted among the well-to-do
people of the Willamette Valley After
Mr Henderson's death, 10 years ago, the
farm was sold.
Simple funeral services were held at
Mrs Falling's residence, at 4:30 yester
day afternoon. They consisted of Script
ure reading and prayer by Rev Edgar P.
Hill, pastor of the First Presbyterian
Church, and a hymn. Today the body
will be taken to McMinnville. and the
funeral will be held from the Cumber
land Presbyterian Church, which Mrs.
Henderson helped to build.
A Tribute to Mrs. Henderson.
In the Autumn of 1S4S, In a primitive
cabin, near the shores of the Yamhill,
surrounded by her children. 1 first met
Rhoda Carpenter Henderson. That first
Impression that I was in the presence of
a most noble woman, deepened and
strengthened with the years.
Among the pioneer mothers of Oregon,
In their devotion and self-sacrifice Mrs.
Robert Henderson, in the memory of all
who knew her, will ever be prominent
Hers was one of those happy natures in
whom devotion to others was a pleasure,
and in whom self was so completely sub
ordinated to duty that she was never
conscious of making a sacrifice Among
her family and friends her Influence was
great and ever for good She had that
strong, self-reliant nature that did not
consciously control, but directed by in
spiring confidence in her example.
Just how much the world has gained
through the life of such a one cannot be
measured nor fully known. We can only
know that it is by such as these that
the world is constantly growing better;
we know, too, that their influence for
good does not cease with the going out
of life; that in the broadest sense they
are still with us. A. S. W.
FOR THE FIRST TIME.
Beethoven's O Major Symphony
Heard Last Night.
Society was out in force last night for
the symphony concert, and evinced more
heartiness of enthusiasm in its applause
of the work of the orchestra than on any
previous occasion this season. Heretofore
the audience has been In the habit of
listening attentively and exchanging
pleasant comments on the orchestra sotto
voce between numbers, but as these could
not possibly be heard across the footlights,
the orchestra was often left in Ignorance
as to the real state of feeling that existed
in parquet and dress circle. A more dem
onstrative mood took possession of -the
audience last night, and the result was
seen Immediately In the more spirited
work of the orchestra. This was in a
measure due to the beauty of the second
number, the andante cantablle, from
Tschoikowsky's string quartet op. 11,
which completely charmed the audience.
It was new in the sense that it had not
been given before by the Portland sym
phony orchestra; but not unfamiliar to
those who enjoyed the privilege of hear
ing the Kneisels play it on one of their
visits to the city.
The programme on the whole was, from
the popular standpoint, one of the most
successful in make-up of any yet attempt
ed by the orchestra. There was a more
skillful arrangement of contrasts; and the
introduction of the Treble Cleff Club un
der Mrs. Walter Reed was a very pleas
ant innovation. Their singing of Cham
lnade's "The Sailors' Christmas," Strong's
"Now in the Month of Maying," and
Beach's Shakespeare song, "Through the
House Give Glimmering Light," quite
captivated the audience.
The Beethoven Symphony No. 1 was
given in the spirit of bright and genial
optimism in which It was written. The
mood of noble self-assertion of his own
individuality that marked Beethoven's ad
vance Into a new and unexplored prov
ince was felt more or less strongly
throughout the four movements The
minuet, with Its touches of daring origi
nality and its contagious humor, was
rendered with real zest. So much human
interest Invariably attaches Itself to the
Interpretation of any one of Beethoven's
symphonies that an occasion of first pre
sentation, such as this, becomes an event
of great significance to local musicians.
Grove quotes Schumann as saying that
the early works of great men are to be
regarded in quite a different light from
those of writers who never had a future.
In Beethoven's case this is most true and
interesting, and especially so with regard
to the first symphony Had he died Im
mediately after completing It. it would
hive occupied a very different position
from what it does now. It would have
been Judged and loved on its merits, but
we should never have guessed of what
grander beauties and glories it was des
tined to be the harbinger, or have known
ti.e pregnant significance of the minuet.
Two oth;r highly Interesting numbers
were given last night Weber's overture
to Euryanthe, and scenes from Wagner's
"Die Melsterslnger," the latter full of the
startling surprises, strenuous energy and
orchestral color that made Wagner the
prince of romanticists.
