SPUINiJFIELD, March 2. (Spe
cial) The grave of a real laugliter
f the American Revolution, the only
one, as far a is known, in Lane
county, is located near the Mount
Vernon cemetery east of Springfield.
It has just been discovered, accord
ing to Mrs. AV. E. Miner, registrar of
the Oregon Lewis and Clark chapter
of the J i. A. It. of Eugene. The
grave is that of )lr. Nancy Arnold
(xublc who crossed the plaint in 1MUI.
coining to Springfield with her family.
The discovery of the grave follow
ed an inquiry from Mrs. Thomas F.
Hughes of Kalamazoo, Michigan, de
siring information concerning her
groat-great-erandmother. Mrs. tioble.
'l he records proved very meagre, and j
Mrs. Miner, agisted by Mrs. John F. j
Ketels of Springfield, spent much
time searching through the old
Springfield cemetery which has not
been used for 45 years, without find
ing any trace of the grave, Later
it was learned, following a newspaper
Inquiry, that Mrs. Fay Coble Good
ing, a resident of Aurora, Oregon,
was a great granddaughter of the
deceased, and had graduated from the
Springfield high school in 3015. A
grandson of Mrs. Goble, L. E. Goble,
now a resident of northern California,
was found, who contributed informa
tion concerning tho burial.
Mrs. Goble was the daughter of
Stephen Arnold, who fought in the
Revolutionary war, later removing
wiih his family to Fort Vincennes,
Kentucky, where his daughter. Nancy
Arnold, met and married George
Goble, who served in the war of
1812. Mrs. Goble as a very old lady
pioneered to Oregon, dying the fol
lowing spring at the age of 70. The
grave has been located in a field ad
joining the old section of the Mount
Vernon cemetery. For many years
it was surrounded by a fence, but not
long ago the present owners plough
ed over the spot."
The Oregon Lewis and Clark chap
ter Is planning to mark the spot in
some way, either by establishing a
small memorial park, or putting up a
monument in the cemetery. There
is one living Daughter of the Ameri
can Revolution living in Marsh field,
according to Mrs. Miner. She is
now 81 years old, and was born when
her father was about 80.

foreign markets, form credits and the
eliiiiintiilon of land speculation are
discussed in the report of the engin
eers' board consisting of Louis C.
Hill, Jotcph Jacobs. Charles 11
Locher, Richard It. Ljmau, Arthu J.
Turner and f. . Wa.ler.
It wa es' td by the engineer
that the rut ' 4:.4.it required of a s'i
th-r ou the proposed project wi 1
range from $''.iU0 to lTitK) to com
mence operations. A study of var
ious factors connected with settlement
led the board tu fix 23 years as uli-i
maximum time iu which the entire ir
rigtble area would bo settled by far
mers and Hie land under cultivation.
Benefit Pointed Out.
"A carefully worked out schedut?
of farm operations," the hoard states,
"indicates that an SO-acre farm in the
more favorably situated lands of the
project will, at the end of the fifth
year, return a gross annual revenue
of $4100, of which $1000 would be
available for debt reduction."
The -hoard pointed out that the Jiigh
per acre cost of the pumping plants
which provide for pumping water di
rectly out of the Columbia river, in
addition to the fact that HoO.000 acri-s
of the best lands cannot be reached
by canals, makes them less attractive
that the gravity pluu.
Several secondary reservoir sit s
within the projm, said the board,
make it possible to improve opcratinn
conditions, conserve drainage and
water and, by furuishjng water at a
critical time carry tiie peak deman 1
and permit a further reduction in
canal capacity.
Power Available.
"Along the distributing lanals." the
engineers added, "there are uumeroui
drops and chute where power may ot
developed. T.ie amount --f such power
for the several projects varies approx
imately as their acreage. tin th?
maximum gravity plan, oO such power
