Prominent Fanners.
This morning at 10 o'clock in the
Presbyterian church, funeral services
were held over the body of Hans
Struve. the pioneer farmer of this
county who died recently in San Di
ego. Following the services, the body
-was shipped to Warren station where
a short service In German was held
vrior to interment in the German
cemetery at that place.
Hans Struve was born in the quaint
old village of Lutjenwested. Holstein,
Germany. April 3, 1S41. There he
was educated and grew to manhood.
In the spring of 1873, in his 32nd about fifty guests assisted In the cele
He took up a pre-emption and home
stead seven miles north of Pendleton.
This home was the beginning of the
German settlement that has added
so much to the wealth of Umatilla
county.
In 1SS0 Hans Struve made a visit
to the Fatherland remaining nine
months. He returned to Oregon by
way of California, wlich he reached

On the 5th of November he went
again to California, this time for a

Germany. They came to the farm
where they resided for twenty years.
Then in 1899, on the 27th of Sep
tember, with his wife and seven chil
dren he went to Germany to visit his
two brothers and a sister.
The family lived for six months In
the house where the father was born
and reared, and the American chil
dren enjoyed immensely their novel
surroundings and improved In their
knowledge of the German language.
On the 16th of April, 1908, the fam

This was the last . great gathering
there, for a beautiful home of twelve
lots was purchased in the city of Pen

From this home, the eldest daugh

1!09, and the father went to San
Diogo the following winter, spending
two happy months in the land of
flowers and sunshine.
He could no longer endure the cold
and snow of Eastern Oregon, so three
months more were spent in San Di
ego while the storms of winter raged
at home.
In July, 1911. because of ill health,
Mr. Struve accompanied by his son,
Deitlef started for San Diego, in
search of health. They were soon
followed by the rest of the family.
For five months his devoted familv
aidod by specialists, did all in their
power to help him regain health and

be spent in the open air in the parks
or on the beautiful boulevards by the
sea but all efforts fallc?d and on the
5th of January he passed away at St.
Joseph's Sanatarium.
Funeral services were held in San
Diego. As soon as proper arrange
ments could be made the family re
turned bringing the body to be laid
beside his children in the little Ger
man cemetery near Warren, six miles
from the farm and twelve from the
home in Pendleton.
Such is the brief history of an hon
ored citizen whose life added to the
wealth of the state of his adoption
and to the happiness of many.
Today he was laid to rest under the
fragrant snow of white lilies from the
Southland.
