P. Easter Buried The following obituary notice ia handed the Sentinel by Jas. Watson, a friend of the deceased, Dr. J. P. Banter, for many years: Jacob IP. Easter was bom in Ohio, September 12th, 1842, and died at Clatskanie, Columbia county, Oregon, Wednesday, July 18th. He was buried at Portland last Saturday. He was a Civil War veteran, one of the few remaining, enrolled aa a pri vate in the 34th Independent Battery, Ohio Volunteers, Light Artillery, on the 18th day of June, 1888, at Hills boro, Ohio, by John L. Hill and was mustered into the United States ser vice aa such for the period of three years, on the 4th day of August, 1863, at Dennison, Ohio, by Captain Proc ter, United States of America Mus ter officer, and was mustered out with the battery on June 24th, 1866, at Dennison, Ohio. He served to the con clusion of the war and was honorably discharged. He graduated from PhysiomedicaJ College of Medicine in IMS at Cin cinnati, Ohio, as an M. D. and prac ticed his profession continuously from the date of his graduation until 1928, in several states including Ohio, Kan sas, California and Oregon. On March 3rd, 1891, ho was appoint ed Examining Surgeon for the Bu reau of Pensions of Washington, D. C., residing at Myrtle Point, Oregon, which position he held for a number of years; among his duties in this of fice was the examining applicants for pensions. He was for a number of years su perintendent of the county Yarm dur ing the incumbency of David Lowry Watson as county judge from 18M to 1894, under contract being required to furnish and operate the farm. The writer became acquainted with Mr. Easter during the time he was superintendent tef the county farm, about 1889, and at the time he left Coos county in December, 1929, was a very close friend. Mr. Easter was very much interest ed in potties, and I have a number of I letters upon political issues; he was the most loyal republican I ever met; politically, he had no use for a demo crat or the democratic party; in one of hie letters to me in 1980, written during the primary campaign, he stated, “Just a bit of ancient history. You knew of the great men of long ago, men who left a name with the great republican party. One fact stands out in the history of our coun try, no democratic president was ever assassinated in the U. 8. A. There is oae truth stands out plain in the his tory of our country, all men that tried to destroy this government were democrats.” He claimed to have east his vote for Abraham Lincoln for President in I860, when he was but 18 years of age, the legal restrictions being leas than now; upon being ques tioned how this happened, he said, “Men voted younger those days than they do now.” He claimed never to have voted for a democrat in his life. He was ever ready to enter into a discussion of religion, politics or pro hibition and was well informed on all these subjects, and many others. He often told me of debates he had had with men of my acquaintance in the early days; he gave me a number of books on early day politics and a bound volume of early day speeches by noted orators of the day. He was a man of strong beliefs and opinioiw. Doctor Easter came to Coos county in the early days and after residing in this county for a number of years, left, and returned again in 1926. On November 18th, he was joined in mar riage to Viola J. Easter, widow of the late David P. 8trang, a Civil War vet eran. Mrs. Easter died in December, 1929, after her death Mr. Easter moved to Portland, Oregon, and re sided with his son, Doctor Chester T. Easter, for a time. On June 8th, 1980, he again married and moved to Clat skanie, Columbia county, Oregon, where be resided until his death. His widow survives him. Mrs. M. O. Hooton, of Coquille, is a daughter and Dr. Chester F. Easter, of Portland, is a eon of the deceased. Doctor Easter had many sterling qualities; he was honest, honorable and upright, his word was as good as hie bond, be was a true and sincere Claytea, friend to his friends. fresh fruits Green Beans Celery Green Peppers that are appetising Plums, Apricots, Canteloupes, Carrots Grapes, Peaches, Watermelons Turnips Pride Boneless pic R led PIGS FEET Makes a tasty lunch these warm days.

It lay to the south of Egypt, and In Its moot extended sense it embraced modern Nubia, Sennaar, Kordofan and north ern Abyssinia that Is about thé region now known as the Sudan and northern Abyssinia. The northern boundary ef Ethiopia was the southern boundary of Egypt, and It la indicated in Eseklel 39:10, where Syene Is mentioned as marking the border. The Hebrews do not appear to have bad much practical acquaintance with Ethiopia Itself, though the Ethiopians were well known to them through their Inter course with Egypt. The Inhabitants of Ethiopia were a Hamltlc, or aa one might say, an African or negro race, and were divided into various tribes of which the most powerful wore the Sabaeana. The history of Ethiopia is closely Interwoven with that of Egypt The two countries were not Infrequent ly united under the rule of the same sovereign. Shortly before the birth of our Lord a native dynasty of females, holding the official title of Candace, held sway in Ethiopia, and even re sisted the advance of the Roman anna. One of these queens is noticed in Acts 8:27. The latter part of this chapter, beginning at verse 26. tells the beau tiful story of Philip coming upon the man of Ethiopia journeying "unto Gosa, which ts desert." The traveler was “of great authority nnder Candae, queen of the Ethiopians, who bad the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for worship.
