DEATH OF MRS. MARY LAUGHLIN
Paiaei Away Peacefully at Her Borne
In ThU City.
At about 2 o'clock this morning Mrn.
Mary Laughlin, widow of William C.
Laughlin, passed away peacefully at her
home, on the corner of Third arid Jeffer
'son streets, in this city.
i Mrs. Laughlin must be reckoned as
one of the early, if not the earliest, pio
neers of the county. She came here
with her husband in 1850, they having
crossed the plains in the usual manner
of those early days, and first took up a
.claimnear Crate'8 Point. but the next
year they abandoned it and moved to
Hood River. In 1853 they moved to
The Dalles, where Mr. Laughlin located
a claim, on which the present east end
of this city is built. ;
"5be was 80j?eara.oLagebaving been
born in SGelby county, Kentucky, Janu
ary 28, 1818. In 1832 she moved to
Quincy, Illinois, with her parents,
and was married to William C. Laugh
lin in that place in 1840. Shortly after
their marriage they settled in Missouri,
where their three children were bom
Mrs. Elizabeth Lord and Mr. B. F.
Laughlin, of this place, and James
Laughlin, who was drowned in the Co
lumbia some twenty years ago.
Not only was Mrs. Laughlin one of
the oldest residents in The DalleB, but
one of the moBt respected and rever
enced, and as 'one by one theee early
pioneers leave us, we feel the loss keen
ly, as to them it eeems wo were wont to
look for guidance. It is always sad to
see the young cut down in early man
hood and womanhood; but even more
do we miss the gray-haired mothers and
fathers who have been with ue so long a
time.
The funeral will take place from her
residenceat 2o'clock tomorrow (Wednes
day. Friends of the family are invited
to attend.

The meetings at the M. 12. church are
growing steadily in interest. A very
quiet, attentive audience listened last
night to the sermon by the pastor, wlio
took for his text "The word is nigh thee,
even in thy mouth uud in thy heart;
that if, tliu word of faith which we
preach." The preacher said : ''This is
ii progressive age. Many are saying,
"Show us some new thing." What of
this Christ? They would that one
should ascend into heaven to bring
Christ down, or descend into the deep to
bring Christ up. By their theories men
blind themselves to the fact that God
has put in every heart sufficient knowl
edge to lead the way to Himself. If
they would follow the light that is their's
by birthright, it would reveal the Christ,
the Anointed. The honest heart in
penitence cries out for a promise, and
always finds one sufficient lor his help,
The word of faith preached by Paul is
this: "If thou shall confess with thy
mouth the Lord Jesus ; and shall believe
in thy heart that God hath raised him
from tbe dead, thou jhalt be saved,"

might receive the blessing from the
Lord.
