Homeless, But Cheerful.
A forlorn little orphan colt, friendless
but friendly, is a sort of privileged char
acter about the city. Recently it wan
dered down to the engine house, and
taking up a position by the side of the
tongue of the fire engine, stood there
asleep for several hours, unaware of the
interest it was awaking in passers by.
Last night a charitably-inclined gen
tleman found it asleep on the sidewalk
near the burned Vogt building, and as
it followed him down town he procured
some hay and housed the demure little
fellow in the marshal's office. When
the nlghtwatchmen came that way they
took pity on its lonesomeness and turned
it over to the party of the first part, the
aforesaid charitably-inclined gentleman
the initials of whose name is George
Brown. The colt put in a comfortable
night alongside the fire engine, and this
morning, well this morning it is house
cleaning day at the marshal's office and
the engine house.

Death of Hon. J. H. Mosier.
At Mosier, Friday afternoon Oct. 5th,
1894, at 1:1 5 Jonah Harrison Mosier,
aged 73 years 6 months and 25 days.
Funeral in Mosier cemetery Monday
morning at 10 o'clock under the direct
ion of the Masonic Fraternity.
Jonah Harrison Mosier was born in
Maryland March 10th, 1821, and was
therefore 73 years old. While yet an
infant his family emigrated to Pennsyl
vania and successively afterward to Iowa
and Wisconsin. In the latter named
state, at Smithsville, he was married in
1846 to Jane Rollins. In 1849 he move J
to California, and being a carpenter by
trade built several houses both in San
Francisco and the state capital.' As an
instance of those stirring times it is re
lated that he frequently received $25 as
the price of a single day's work. 1 The
early days of his life in the Occident was
not without 'adventure, also. While
camping on the Gila river himself and
party, including Major Stein and Lieut.
Forsyth, ' were attacked by Apaches
those hardiest, most bloodthirsty and
most tenaciously warlike of Indians.
In the enconnter Lieut. Forsythe was
killed and Major Stein wounded. Later
he left California for his former home
in Missouri, but like all others who
have had a taste of western life, he soon
tired of his old surroundings, and in
1853 bade farewell forever to Missouri,
removing directly to The Dalies, Ore
gon. He, with Col. Gates and Judge
Laughlin (lather of Frank J. Laughlin)
first platted the city of The Dalles.
Soon thereafter Mr. Mosier was again
busy with his hammer and saw and
bnilt the first business houses of the
city. In the spring of 1855 he settled
at Mosier, where ' be has resided ever
since. His pursuits since then ' were
varied. In 1855 he erected a sawmill,
which is believed to have been the first
operated in Wasco county. He also
drove cattle to the mines, and himself
owned large .bands. He had an occa
sional brush with Indians, and on one
occasion nearly met his death while
rowing a large sail boat up the river
during a comparative calm. An Indian
concealed in some brush' shot at him,
the bullet, an irregular metal slug pass
ing through the space occupied by his
person an instant before, the backward
movement of his body while rowing
saving his lifej A companion, with
more discretion, if less valor, quickly
laid down in the bottom of the boat,
leaving the rower to gain a safer dis
tance alone. More than once Mr.
Mosier, with his family, has been com
pelled to temporarily abandon his place
in the night, being threatened by preda
tory Indians. But though courageous
and resolute, he never retaliated in
kind, depending more upon kindbeart
edness and inoffensive' conduct toward
his copper-hued brethren than the mod
ern weapons of offense and defense. In
1876 Mr. Mosier served the state with
dignity and honor in the legislature.
His wife died in 1865, after bearing
seven children; respectively, Mrs. Sarah
Alice Fancette of Walla Walla, Mrs.
H-mily Ann ManBfield (deceased) of
Weston, Mrs. Mary Susan Adams of
Hood River, Mrs. Josephine Eliza
beth Willoughby (deceased) " of Har
nsburg, Oregon, Benjamin Franklin
Mosier (deceased), Jefferson Newton
Mosier and Miss Lydia Sophia Mosier' of
Walla Walla. In 1866 he married Mrs.
mr 1 T ' r ' m ....
manna j. .Lewis. ivo caudren were
the fruits of the latter marriage, Mrs
Effie J. Phillips of Mosier and -Miss
Dollie Mosier. ; " .

latter part of June, but really his sick
ness dates back to a much earlier time.
During the first yearof the plague known
as la grippe, he was stricken with the
disease, and has never been the same
since. Naturally of a eunny disposition,
mild tempered, extremely hospitable,
and generous to a fault, disease falsely
clothed him with lees apparent hearti
ness and joviality of manner. His
merry laugh, which made, the woods
ring and was in itself a cure for dyspep
sia was ever afterward hushed, and his
naturally buoyant epirits changed, with
accumulating years, to sterner moods.
The heroic comrade, the generous neigh
bor, the jolly companion and sacrificing
friend had all suffered loss at a stroke,
and though kindness, hospitality and
generosity were still hia dominating
traits of character, those knew him best
who knew. him before disease laid its un
kindly hand upon him. But this only
by comparison. In the community in
which he was a patriarch, where be has
braved the perils and endured the priva
tions and toils of pioneer life, a neigh
borhood where he antedates "the first
other civilized inhabitant yet living by
a score of years, he is respected and
revered as is given to but few to be, and
his memory will' be perpetuated long
years after his kindly spirit has bidden
adieu to its earthly tenement. The
creek he settled and the town he located
justly bear the name of its locally '.illns-
trious founder, all now given to history
and memory in minds of men. He pro
fessed religion a short time before his
death, and sustained by its consolations
and an indomitable will, he bore his
sufferings uncomplainingly to the end. '
