His parents moved west while he was yet a small boy, going first to Goldendiile, then to Vancouver, Wash., and later to As toria, Oregon, lie was converted when eleven years old, and joined the Congregational church, but at the time of his death he was a mem ber of the Presbyterian church in Vancouver, Wash, A few years ago he contracted tuberculosis and In No vember, 1917. went to Phoenix, be lieving that the mild climate of the Salt River valley would cure him. He became so much better that the fol lowing March he left Phoenix and went to Portland, Oregon, where a week later he went to his home In Astoria, Ore., accompanied by his mother. Here he remained for about three and one-half months. In June he went to Beaumont, California, re maining there about three months. His condition was gradually becom ing worse, and having received great benefit from his first trip to Arizona, he decided in favor of that climate again.
