Tho removal by death of Mrs. Mar
garet M'Kuy, at Pendleton, hajlpi
from earth one of the most interiWng
personalities. A lady by grace of birth
and kculture, of exquisite refinement
though of retiring modesty, she graced
every circle she ever entered.
She waa born in tho Red River coun
try the decendant of a long line of
governors, rulers and explorers. The
name of her ancestors is borno by frozen
rivers and frontier posts of tho extreme
Northwest. At the time of her girlhood
Fort Garry, now Winnipeg, was the eeat
of the best efforts to establish civiliza
tion in those remote regions. The
"Bishop's school" at Fort Garry waB
oflicered by the most skilled of English
teachers, aud to that school the young
Mise Campbell was sent. Her exquiBite
pen.nanahlp had often attracted tbe at
tention of the present writer. I spoke
of it .to her once. She said in reply, "1
have been whipped more often about
my writing, than about anything." So
true ia it that as the years change, so
do manners change and teachers too.
It would bo hard to conceive of any
instructor trying to put arguments into
a child through their tender ekin or eoft
muscle, of the impropriety of careless
penmanship. And this system we must
suppose was applied to other studies as
well as copy book exercises. Yet this
must be said, tliut In Margaret Camp
bell's case, the system did good work.
What she knew bIio knew thoroughly,
and In overy department of life that she
waa called on to till, was well fitted for
her work as wife, mother aud home
maker. During her residence in The Dalles,
she was a devoted member of the Con
gregational church, of this city. She
came to Oregon iu 1855, by the Hudson
Bay trails, with her brother-in-law, Mr.
James Sinclair, and her slstor. Mr.
Sirclair waa killed at the Cascades dur
ing the Indian outbreak of that year.
Miss Campbell and her elster having
been left here, were paved.
