Mr. Joseph Farnsworth was
among us again last week. It has
been over a year since he left here
to have his wife treated for a frac
ture she had received in a runaway
some years lefore. . She had to be
hauled on a spring bed to Walla
Walla where the knee cap was re
moved and the joints squared up.
This made a solid leg from hip to
ankel but unfortunately thev left
some decayed bone and it never
knit properly and finally broke out
again, which -railed for an amputa
tion above the knee.

Mr. Ely Smith has returned from

they did not search for the bodies
and on the ninth day they raised
and were found five miles below
where they were tipped out of the
l)oat while they were stretching a
trout line across the river. The
other man was his near neighbor.
Both men leave families. They
were both good swimmers. No one
has any idea how it was done as it
was eariy in the morning and no
one saw them. But there are
many whirlpools in the rivers there
and they had a poor boat. His
family will remain on the fruit
ranch he owned near Bliss. They
have the sympathy of the entire
community.

The 2nd day after going into camp

by companies to the battlefield. In
i anticipation of an attack from thu
