Ex-Slieriff Thomson Gives Some Rem

County Seat Was Changed Was

An interesting reminiscence con
cerning the late S. 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

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.

Prof. A. B. Leckenby formerly su
perintendent of the Oregon experi

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.
