L. Morse, who died In this city this week was related to the East Oregonian last evening by the well known pioneer and ex-sheriff Of Umatilla county, O. F. Thomson, of Butter creek. Mr. Thomson was sheriff of Uma tilla county In January. 1869, when the county seat was first moved from Umatilla to Pendleton and at that time he employed S. L. Morse and "Jim" Jacobs who still lives in the county, to haul the county records from Umatilla Landing to this city. According to Mr. Thomson, the records were loaded Into two wagons one evening In January, 1869 and the wagons were run Into the Stanfleld feed yard at Umatilla, where they stood for the night. There was no snow on the ground and sleds were not used, as has been commonly re ported. Neither was there any at tempt on the part of the people of Umatilla to prevent the removal of the records. Mr. Thomson says that he left no guards with the records over night, but left the 'wagons standing in the feed yard among scores of other wagons. As It was desired to get an early start with the precious freight, Mrs. Thomson arose at about 3:30 next morning and prepared breakfast for Mr. Morse and Mr. Jacobs, who start COLDS The very hour a cold starts la th. time to check It.

Many stories have been built upon this Incident, but Mr. Thomson, who was sheriff and who had direct su pervision of the removal of the rec ords, says that It was a commonplace affair and was not surrounded with any of the startling Incidents which later historians have woven about It.

TIMELY IIIITIIIG WINS THE GAM E LA GRANDE AND PENDLETON AGAIN DIVIDE HONORS Locals Are Defeated for-Second Time Tills Season Baker Swats) Bail Over the Fence for Home Run In Vain Fab1 Crowd Wltnewee Con. tent Tallfwro Touched for Ten Hits Wliile Kotteinan Allows But Six. ' La Grande 6; Pendleton I. For the second time this seaosn the Pendleton ball team was defeated yes terday and the score was a soothing balm for the La Grander who had been taken down to the tune of 18 to 5 the day previous. With the stores closed yesterday af ternoon a fairly good crowd was out to see the game, but at no game this season has the crowd been what the present team deserves. Once more Baker raised his batting average yesterday by sending the ball over the fence Into the river. But for some reason Lorlmer"s men did not wield the stick as they have been do ing in the past. Perhaps Kotteman was hard to hit, the detailed score In dicates as much. Taliaferro was in the box for Pen dleton and he has a wonderful speed. But his pitching does not get the ef fective results that Parkes does and the man from The Dalles Is consider ably behind Parkes In fielding his po. sitlon and backing up first base.
