RECOGNITION SOUGHT
FOR THE VETERANS OF
EARLY INDIAN WAR
FIVE GIRLS DUPED IN
PART OR WHOLLY BY
"DR." S. 0. CRAWFORD
San Francisco, June 21. (P. N. S.)
While new charges of perjury were
prepared today against "Dr." Sherman
O. Crawford by George A. McGowan,
step-father of Margaret Abercromble.
the heiress he duped into a fraudulent
marriage, and his own father, Edwin
'R Crawford, sought hail for him on
the bigamy charge which led him to a
cell in the city prison. Investigation
Into the accused man's past today re
vealed the fact that the known total
number of girls wholly or partly duped
by him Is five.
Here Is the roster, chronologically:
The mysterious first wife, whom
Crawford denies wedding, but who is
admitted as a possibility even by his
father.
Mrs. Verna Belle Florence Pryce
Crawford, moving picture actress,
married at San Rafael. February 15,
1V15. husband given interlocutory di
vorce. September 11, 1915.
Miss Iona Toles, beautiful daughter
of Chief Carpenter W. W. Toles of the
navy, wooed at Vallejo, engaged No
vember, 20, 1915, engagement broken
by girl in December.
Miss Alta Johnson, daughter of B.
P. Johnson, merchant, of 525 Castro
street, marriage proposed in April,
1916, delayed because of father's ob
jections. Miss Margaret Abercromble, beauty,
heiress' and society girl, met May 1.
at Dixie ball, engaged May 18, eloped
June 7, separated June 20.
There were others, according to the
boasts Crawford made to associates at
the Marine hospital while he was in
terne there, during the period he was
posing as a nuval officer. How far
these other cases went Is not known,,
but he received letters in plenty, and
howed them with pride.
Stllwell, now living at Tillamook, was
another of the reunlonists.
One of the oldest in point of years
Is Charles Bolds, a Portlander. who
was born in Kentucky in 1822 and
came to Oregon In 1845. Samuel
Gatton, now living at Woodland,
Wash., is a prominent visitor, also
having come across in 1850. Na
Webb of Walla Walla, did not come
until 1854, but had many adventures
on the way.
C. M. Vanderpool of Corvallls, and
J. W. Marsters of Hillsboro, are
others of the clans assembled. Besides
these, G. B. Uiggs of Orchard, Wash.,
was observed in tie throng. Mr.
Riggs was born in Missouri, "wher
all husky men come from." In 1836
and migrated 10 years later. J. C.
Nelson, who was born in 1827 and
came here in '48, now' lives at New
berg and found time and strength to
come.
Nearly 600 Here.
Altogether, nearly 600 registrations
had been made before 10 o'clock this
morning. Not so many as last year,
because every year exacts a heavy
toll. But among those who registered
were many who had never before at
tended one of these annual reunions.

The Adjutant General.
Oregon is ready.
Mobilization is complete.
Adjutant General Wnite at 6:30 last
night wired Washington that the
troops of the Oregon national guard
were prepared to move on orders from
Washington.
Approximately 1300 men are now In
camp at Clackamas.
From Willamette valley towns and
from Portland they poured into the
mobilization camp for the Oregon na
tional guard all day yesterday.
Company G, stationed at Oregon
City, was the first to arrive. Joining
the three companies already on the
field at 11 o'clock.
Company A of McMinnville. Captain
I Francis L. Michelbook, reached camp
' shortly before noon. They were fol
lowed by Company I from Woodburn
and Company L from Dallas.
The Portland contingent reached
Clackamas at 2:45 o'clock on a 14-car
special over the Southern Pacific, four
companies of the Third Infantry C.
D, E and H the headquarters com
pany and band. Troop A and Battery A.
Battery A was the first to detrain,
the men marching from the railroad
station to the camp in columns of
twos led by Captain Charles W.
Helme.
Their field pieces and caissons and
other equipment had been taken to
Clackamas by motor truck.
jSome carried saddlebags. Here and
there was a rose sticking out of a
leathern cover. Their bright red hat
cards gleamed in the afternoon light,
but the brown service uniforms
blended with the high grass and the i
reddish earth.
With Colonel Clenard McLaughlin
leading, came the Portland companies
of the Third. There was the staff and
the headquarters band with their in
struments closed in cases.
Then fame the First Battalion, and
last of all Troop A. It was a long
fi.e, and a businesslike file. It was
hi t drill, .t was r.ot pretty marching,
i Jvlst a steadily advancing line with a
1 certain object in view.
I Here and there was a man in civilian
clothes, a late recruit who had to en
train with his company before being
g4ven a uniform. One squad march
ing along was made up entirely of men
in street garb. One or two carried
suitcases.
Here and there in line a marcher
would be seen With a package person
al property that he had not had time
to put away in his kit bag.
On arrival in camp there was no
cenfusion and no delay. Each com
pany weni uireciiy to tne place as
signed It and began putting up tents, t
Men detailed to the railroad station
unloaded two baggage cars crammed
with company supplies, unloaded the
stuff on wagons which in turn dis
tributed it among the several units.
. Tents went up almost as by magic.
Ground was 'quickly cleared, grass and
loos stones and sticks raked awey,
level floor spaces scraped.
Compan;' cooks busled themselves
picparing for the evening meal, wear
ing white chefs caps as the Index
of their positions.
"Gosh, but we are hungry," said
the men of Company G, who had
hiked from Oregon City. "Some of
us haven't had a thing to eat since
4 o'clock: this morning."
QaaTd Teats ITaar Tracks,
Near the entrance to the camp,
close by the railroad tracks, the
guard tents are placed. Each com
pany will be assigned to guard duty
in turn for a day. The guard consists
of 12 men, two corporals and a
sergeant.
Company K of Corvallls was due
to arrive at camp late last evening,
making the encampment complete,
save for the machine gun company
which, is remaining in Portland on
recruiting duty.
The troops must be mustered Into
the service of the United States, a
proeess that will probably take sev
eral days. Additional eq&lpment must
he furnished by the government In
some instances, as the Oregon guard
has been on a peace footing.

Seaside. Or., June 22. Verna Belle
Pryce-Crawford, 20-year-old divorced
"wife of Sherman O. Crawford, who has

that she did not see Mrs. Crawford

possessed of much wealth. They wert
to Baa Rafael and were married. Sev-
On the emigrant trail is a tiny grave
that was dug in 1851 when 10-month-old
Frances Keeney died after the rig
ors of a long wagon Journey. For
years the mound was marked by a piece
of board broken from the end-gate of
a wagou, w-hich served as tombstone
and bore the inscription: "Frances A.
Keeney, died August 26, 1851, In the
tenth month of her age."'
Somehow George W. Rice, who now
lives at The Dalles, feels a sort of re
sponsibility for that grave. One rea
son Is that it was dug n what later
became the Rice donation land claim,
along Fifteen Mile creek, near tne old
Great Southern railroad track, half a
mile east of Rice station.
Mr. Rice, himself a pioneer of '51,
wanted to tell the Oregon Pioneer as
sociation about it at the present re
union, but be could not leave his home
on accoun' of Illness-. So he wrote his
friend J. H. Minton, a pioneer of '53,
who lives at' 789 Patton avenue, Port
