i Coquille Ijerald. WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 1, 1906, Charles H. Merchant Passes Away. ( From Friday’s Coos Bay Times) Charles H. Merchant, Marshfield's leading citizen, and one of the pio neers of the state of Oregon, died of heart disease at seven o’clock last evening at his home in this city, after a lingering illness of several months. Mr. Merchant returned to Marshfield in the month of Febru ary, from a trip to Southern Cali- f ornia and northern Mexico. He was taken ill during the month of April, and has been confined to his bod practically every since that time. For the past several weeks the end has been almost hourly expected. Ho was about sixty seven years of age. He located on Coos Bay in the early sixties, as manager of the Simpson Milling Co. at North Bend, and a number of years later became associated with the E. B. Dean Lumber Co., in whose business he was active until the year 1892. Since that time he has been en gaged chiefly in the management of his own private affairs. Mr. Merchant has always been foremost among the public spirited, broad viewed, and benevolent citi zens of Coos Bay. His death will be universally mourned, not only by the people of Ceos Bay, but by those of the state at large, with whose interests he has been deeply concerned. He is survived by his wife, and a large family of children, among whom are Will, John, Charles, Frank, Albert, James, Robert and Benjamin Merchant, Mrs. Lydia Lang, Mrs Lillie Battsford and Mrs. Mary Desmond, all of whom are now in Marshfield. Besides these he is deeply mourned by scores of life-long friends, and hardly less deeply by the entire community. The date of the funeral services has not been learned but will be an nounced later. Drane keeps fruit jars. the Everlasting J. N. Myers, of Cottage Grove, Oregon, is here looking for a loca tion. His family will join him later. A. C. Lukens, the contractor and builder, has the contract for the erection of a home for Glenn Bar ker at Fairview. The steamer Elizabeth arrived at Handon on Monday with a full cargo of goods for our river mer chants. She will sail tomorrow. W « owe Mr. and Mrs. J. H Smith, of near Johnson’s mill an apology for neglecting to mention the arrival of a fine boy to gladden their home on the 5th of July. Through some mistake Geo. O. Leach, manager of the Coquille branch, of Dow’s wholesale b isiness, received by the last Elizabeth 600 sacks of sugar instead of rolled barley. Dr. Wetmore was called to J. B. Sweet’s at Lamps creek to again at tend his son, W. J., who was in jured some time ago, this being the third time he has met with an ac cident to the same limb. SUMMONS.
