The old barn whinh hniicoH th stage COach horses, was replaced twenty years ago witn a modern nuuaing. Mr. Addison recalls that some time ajter he had purchased the place, an elderly woman of per haps seventy-five, alighting from a n.atfnn rasra nnrimiclv Amund and asked if the huge old black walnut trees growing jusi norm of the house ever produced any nuts. . In further conversation, she stated she could remember when her father, D. B. Cartwright, left Illinois to come west, a neighbor gave him some black walnut sprouts to bring with him, and she was, in passing, checking on Crowe place on Cottage uruvo road. Next postmaster was Rufus Robertson, who moved the office to his store at the present site of the B. C. Addispn store. Succeed ing postmasters were D. G. Palm, I. p. Inman, then Mrs. Delia Jackson moved it to their store at the top of the hill. When Roy V. Foster became postmaster, around 1912, it was moved to the present location, the I.O.O.F. building. Harold M. Foster, present post master, took office in 1940. Another of the older buildings of the community, the Lerane Christian Church, built in 1859, recently received a portion of a "fai ri lift" with a shining new sign, placed across the front of the porch, its name thereon, and date of establishment.

"X HOIKF MOVING & RAISING AHKfc & RICHMOND 540 Van Buren St. Ph. Su The nnstnfflpa hnilfieH here was known as Cartwright P.O. and the entire community, which now comprises Lorane School District, was known as Siuslaw Valley. Within this territory were two other postoffices; since the early day settler had no rural daily mail delivery he still had a postoffice within a ride of perhaps six miles for perhaps a weekly paper. The other two postoffices were Amro, which was six miles down the Siuslaw River, west of the present Lorane. Another was the Siuslaw P.O. in the home of I. L. Simpson, about seven miles north of Lorane, on the present Everett Runk place. This postoffice was established around 1851. Lorane postoffice as known today, was established many years later (no old-time resident can recall the exact date) and was thus named by Wm. N. Crowe who had the postoffice in It Pays To Trade At Haydens Just Received Today 31 , OIL CIRCULATORS First Come, First Served Hayden Electric 527 Willametto (Across from P.O.)
