WILLIAMS In Grants Pass, Thurs
day, April 22, 1909, Thomas Wer
ry Williams, aged 75 years, after
a protracted Illness.
Thomas Werry Williams was In
many respects a remarkable charac
ter. He was born In Cornwall, Eng
land, where he lived for many years
and became one of the leaders among
the Cornish miners and his services
to his fellow-workmen resulted In
placing them on a higher plane than
that occupied previously. While he
waB a leader among his fellows he
was also a miner and for years fol
lowed that calling. After a time
he met with a mine accident which,
for the time being, promised to be
fatal, but a strong constitution en
abled him to survive the serious In
Jury, but he was never able again
to follow this laborious occupation.
In the year 1855 he was married to
Miss Elizabeth Ann Richards, of his
native county. This proved to be a
happy union and for the remarkable
period of 55 years they have lived
together and brought up a numerous
family. His widow survives him,
also four Hons and three daughters.
They are: John II. Williams, Thomas
Werry Williams, Jr., Samuel Wil
liams, Albert WIllianiH, Mrs. Ken
dall and Mrs. Thomas Clenio, all re
siding In Grants Pass, and a daughter
who resides In Australia.
During the year 1S99 Mr. Wil
liams waH prevailed upon to come
to Grants Pass and make his home
with his children. Arriving hero he
made many frlendHhlps and coin
iniuided I ho respect of our entire
community. He was u man of seri
ous convictions and strongly Impress
ed those about him with truth, honor
and the high purposes which sus
tained him. For several years he
had been a great sufferer, but his
kindly deposition and his love and
consideration for others never for
sook him.
His funeral took place from the
Newman Methodist church Friday
artenioon, April 23, and was attend
ed by a large number of our citizens.

MILL AT TIN PAN
GOES TO GALICE
Equipment at Tin Pan Mine to lie
Tuken to the Sutfar Pine Mine
Above Grant Pass.
C. II. Farmer and J. P. Dobbyn, of
Gallce, were in Gold Hill last Friday
afternoon, says the News, completing
the arrangements of moving the ten
stamp mill from the Tin Pan mine
on Galls creek, to their property at
Gallce. The entire equipment of the
mill, including motors, battery, cars
and everything, will be moved to
their property, the Sugar Pine, v. here
it will be put in operation.
The Sugar Pine is known as one
of the best properties iu the Gallce
district. The operators have tapped
the vein on the 700 and 800 foot lev
els and have driven in a tunnel over
COO feet. They have a vein of tellu
rium and silverlte averaging from IS
Inches to four feet in width and lay
ing between a formation of quart
site and porphory on the hanging
walls, giving an exceptionally high
assay.
The task of putting the mill In op
eration on this property Is no small
ono, owing to the inefficient trans
portation facilities, but after the
work has been completed the opera
tors expect great results from the
Sugar Pine.
Galice Is fast becoming known as
the most Important mining district
in Oregon, and as soon as it has
become noted in outside financial
circles, and men of money become
Interested and the development
properly started, it will rival the
famous gold fields of Nevada and
Alaska in every way. Endowed with
Southern Oregon's incomparable
climate, It Is rapidly proving a para
dise for the prospector. He no long
er has to brave the dangers of Neva
da's deserts nor the storm ridden
mountains of Alaska in his search for
gold, but in this district he can ply
his vocation as comfortably and as
leisurely as though he was out on
a summer vacation.
