Will Go To Portland
Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Lee will
leave for Portland today where
they will make their home for a
time.
Mr. Lee published the Falls
City News for a number o f years
until the 1st o f June when he sold
to the present owners. His busi
ness relations with the public has
always been very pleasant but
circumstances over which he had
no control induced him to dis
pose of his interests here and
seek other fields. He was city
audi'or and police judge for near
ly two years and filled that office
faithfully and acceptably making
his final report to the city council
Tuesday night and tendered his
resignation.
We doubt not that Mr. Lee will
always have a warm spot in his
heart for the little city by the
Falls nestled in the mountains
where he spent many happy days.
The departure o f Mr. and Mrs
Lee is regretted by their many
friends, yet in their going they
bid them godspeed.
In our short acquaintance with
Mr. Lee we have found him to
be a pleasant gentleman and
trust that where ever fickle fo r
tune may lead he will meet with
success and his most sanguine
hopes be realized.
