Wallowa County Chieftain
War claims two more county lives
100 YEARS AGO
July 1, 1915
Mrs. Elma Donaldson, wife
of Willam Donaldson, died
suddenly Friday forenoon in
their home on Peter Wright’s
farm, Chapman district. No one
knows the circumstances of her
death. Mr. Donaldson was out of
the house and did not return un-
til after 1 o’clock. When he en-
tered the house he saw his wife

four-year-old boy crying over
his mother. Mrs. Donaldson was
dead, and life had been extinct,
apparently, for upwards of two
hours.
Independence Day will be
observed generally next Mon-
day, July 5. At Wallowa Lake
Park there will be an amusement
program beginning on Saturday
and continuing through to Mon-
day night. At some of the pic-
nics in the groves the occasion
will call for a three days celebra-
tion also. In the towns the stores
will be closed tight on Monday.

George Cammack, 60-year-
old Grangeville carpenter, was
acquitted of a double murder
charge by a district court jury
last week at Grangeville, Ida-
ho, after two hours and twenty
minutes of deliberation. Cam-
mack had been charged with
shooting to death Clyde Mor-
row, 54-year-old northern Idaho
stockman, and Mrs. Mabel Me-
ade, 50, a Grangeville waitress.
Cammack said he knew nothing
of their deaths until after his ar-
rest on the murder charge.

ceived authorizing the privately
