PLANS UPKEEP
OF GRAVEYARD
Zena Funds will be taken from

keep of the graves of William and
Mary Simpson following a vote tak
en Sunday afternoon at the business
meeting of the Simpson clan at the
state fairirroundj where the family
gathered for the fifth reunion of the
descendants of the pioneers. The
annual picnic la held always In hon
or of William and Mary Simpson
who crossed the plains In 184$, com.
ing here from Piatt county, Missou
ri, and who settled In the Willam
ette valley. The graves are located
In the Waldo Hills. On the tomb
stone of William Is the Information
that he was an elder In the Baptist
church for 40 years. He was a circuit
rider when first here.
Mrs. Lois Simpson Crawford of
Zena was re-elected president or tne
clan for the third time. Other of
ficers re-electe dwere Mrs. J. Clyde
Simpson of Salem, secretary-treasurer
and Mrs. Clyde Blivins of Port
land, historian. Mrs. Blivins read an
Interesting history of the family
crossing the plains written by John
T. Shnpson, son or Ben Simpson,
Ben Simpson waa captain of the
train of about 30 wagons. No ser
ious difficulties were encountered
with the Indians on the way, ac
cording to this paper. The train left
Missouri in tne early spring and ar
rived at Oregon City the last of Oc
tober. There Ben Simpson engaged
in the mercantile business, building
saw mills, etc.
The winters of 1846 and 1847 were
extremely hard winters, according to
this paper which related "Grandfa
ther lost all of bis stock that winter
but one cow and one horse, and for
quite a while we stayed with him
that winter living on pea coiiee and
bran bread." A description follows
of how buildings were made without
nails, using wooden pegs and pins
for construction, of how plows were
made and crops threshed and the
long distances covered to get the
grain made into flour, the only mill
hi the valley being Dr. McLaughlin's
at Oregon City.
Six months were required for a
letter to reach the settlers from the
cast, costing them from one to two
dollars to get it. The sender was at
no expense, but the person to whom
it was addressed paid for it on de
livery. After the law was changed
the amount paid depended entirely
on the distance the letter had to be
carried. Ten cents was the price paid
for a letter going "back to the
states." Instead of stamps the writer
paid cash. For several years the pio
neers had no candles or lamps, us
ing fire light from the fireplace to
see at night. There were no public
schools at that time, schools being
taught by subscription and were pri
vate. Mra Hulda Kimsey Savery, 80, of
Dallas, waa the oldest one present,
and she told of experiences encoun
tered in crossing the plains. Doc
Smith was captain of this train
which came across in 1847 and his
motto was to not throw away a crust
of bread and to take good care oi
the oxen. He died when they reach
ed Green River. The night he died
there was a big storm, the cattle
stampeded for three miles. Tbey
buried him and made camp fires
over his grave so that the Indians
and wild beasts would not find his
resting place. Mrs. Savery's grand
parents and aunt came across the
plains in a closed carriage drawn by
a big dun mule named Alex. The
mule pulled the carriage all the way,
even through the rivers they cross
ed. In going down a slope of the
Blue mountains they ran Into a
horde of crickets which got onto the
legs of the cattle and one young
team became frightened and ran
away stampeding the whole train
except the trusty yoke of oxen own
ed by her father who tapped the
oxen on the horns with a stick and
kept them quiet by talking to them.
This train left Missouri May 1 and
reached Yamhill in September.
Forty were present for the re
union. A dinner was served at 12
o'clock and the afternoon was taken
up with a historical program and
visiting.

rison and their three children, Ruth,
