"Old Erysipelas," the pioneer Wells Fargo back horse is no more. He was probably the oldest horse in Oregon, being 42 years old, as registered bv his teeth and the memory of old citizens. He was formerly owned by R. D. Murray, now deceased, who lived several miles below Albany, and when he used to come to town and get gloriously drunk, all he had to do was to get into the wagon and the faithful old horse would take his owner home as carefully as if "Erysipelas" himself had been there and knew how it was. He was a powerful specimen cf horse fleBh, and as a reward for faithful services was allowed by his last owner, Mr. F. E. Allen, to spend his last days in peace in a luxur ient pasture near town. The driver of Wells Fargo's hack, Geo. Stimpson became very much at tached to him, and has draped his hat with a neat crape badge for the regulation period as a token of respect for his memory. The old horse's period of usefulness ceased about one year age, since which time a span of spanking bays has taken his place. Teacher Kaamlnatlon.
