few days ago. A message was sent to
his brother, W. W. White, of Wallowa

but he was unable to reach his
brother's bedside until late last night,
arriving only to find that death had
already occurred.
The deceased is survived by bis
wife; two sisters, Mrs. Anna Eantner,
of Seattle, and Mrs. LizzieStarbuck, of
Portland, and three brothers, W. W.
White, of Wallowa county; Jackson
