tn uAvrex nri coo prgzEN, conga ess From the Flora Journal, of Flon, Oregon, under, the heading of "Good Citizen Leaving" w take the follow ing clipping which eoncems a pres ent citizen of Forest Grove, Mr. Ren frew having bought the Lewry pro perty on First Avenue North between C and D Streets: In the year of . 1883, when this north end of the county was com paratively a void as far as inhab itant were concerned, there came over the trail from Enterprise a man of determination and seal equal to the occasion who throughout many trials and discouragements, carvea a4y to success and prosperity here in this strange yet beautiful land. Ed. Rent row, one of our earliest inhabitants, came over the incline of yonder barrier of mountains with all precious keepsakes carefully stowed away in the sled box, for snow lay deep upon the ground with night com ing on before the incline which slopes to this north land was scarcely passed and with a disabled sled he toiled on until water was reached. Here he ctfmped for the night and the old sled was laid aside never to rise again. Before him lay a wilder ness, parts of which had never been trod by the feet of white man, but un daunted, he traveled on until under the shadow of the lofty banks, of the Grande Ronde river, with its soothing song ringing in his ears, he filed his homestead right on the place now owned by Newt Estes. In this year, came also as companions in sacrifice, Robert Wright and Asa Brown to share with him the preparation of straight paths for the many who would soon come pouring over the divide. Wo bid adieu to Mr. Ren frew and his faithful wife, with deep regrets, acpeing that tiu Mr noma in Forest Grave, towards wick the? journey, with its many added allure ments, will not Mot from their mem ory the many royal friends still rea-' Meats of this north country. As we take our children upon our knees and they ask about Sled Springs, we shall ' tell them the story of the old sled, bleaching yonder under the weight of the many years and of that hardy pioneer, Ed Renfrew, who dared the: toil and sacrifice, that this, then a wilderness, might be made to blos som with the rose.
