After this ho camo to Unto 'coun ty and through tho Iniluonco of Paul Brnttnin took up a donation land claim adjoining his about a mile cast of SprluglloUh In Oc tober of 1S59 ho bought the farm thrco and one-halt miles from Springfield on which ho lived un til his death, September 2, 1915, at tho ngo of S I years, 5 months, S days. Ho began making his fortune at tho ago of 11 yoars when ho first left the parental roof and ns ho grew older applied himself all tho more energetically to his task. Ho was a natural farmer and good management mado the undertaking a success. He spec ialized In raising hogs and made a start with two shoats ho bought of Walker Young for $24.. 1 Hogs and pen-vino proved a val uable combination and his early output of bacon was taken to iPotland by team to market j where It sold at 25 to 30 cents 'per pound. Somo 30 years ago he extended ids activities to Whitman County, Washington where he ncoulred several thou- , sand acres of wheat land all of ' ! which is under a high state of 'cultivation and has yielded rich i eturns. i In his last years Mr. Ebbert: 'has been a very entertaining ! talker and has taken great plea- sure In. relating past experiences and telling of tne .hard knocks experienced by himself and wife ! anil how misfortune here has' been followed by good fortune there. j He had a wonderful memory and could recall past events, names, and dates with great facility. He loved to pore over newspapers and books and was I very well posted In political mat- ter of the day and In men and . events. He was a life-long Re publican, a man of strong per sonality and always had an opin-1 ion of his own. He was noted for his honesty, 1 sterling integrity and charltablo ' j qualities which extended in par ticular to those who deserved as-y isistance, and this help was given 1 in an" unostentatious manner; land his memory will bo long' I cherished by relatives, friends 'and acquaintances. Mrs. Elizabeth Brattaln Ebbert I passed away on the 29th day of July, 1902. Her death was a (great blow to him and he seem 'cd lo feel there was little now to live for. ; His last illness covered a per- J iod of two or three years during i which time ho was a great suf ferer from paralysis. His niece Margaret Morris, daughter of A. H. and Harriet Ebbert Morris of Iowa has at-' tended and cared tor him veryj devotedly since the deatli of his wife and by her faithfulness has ' contributed very much to ills J ; comfort in his last years. I For a while in his early years I he was iudentlficd with the Methoaist Episcopal church and i sometime before his death he renewed the covenant with ids Heavenly Father and was ready and anxious to go to the home j above. Rev. James T. Moore or ' the M. E. church of Springfield 'preached his tuneral sermon to ,a large gathering of sorrowing I friends and relatives. The text j selected was from Psa. 16-11, j "In thy presence is fullness of !jpy. At the right hand there are j pleasures forevermore." j His remains rest beside those jpf hfs wife IiLtliftJ,. O. O. F. cem ! etary at Eugene, Oregon. , HIS MISTAKE Ke moved up to tho city,- . Vhen he'd mado hfs little pile; Built a house and had a garden, Dressed his gh-Is In city style; He read the city papers. And he ato the city food, Ills wife Joined half .a dozen clubs, . Ills boy became a dude; But he left his religion in the country. He took a dab in politics, The city kind, of course; Ho bought a big-powered auto, It was faster than the horse. He had a box at opera, And a lot of gilt-edged stock; Built the bank right in tho center Of tho city's finest block; But bereft his religion in the country. Tho church Just 'round tho corner Was of other brand than his; So- ho visited tho movies Or spent Sunday at his "biz," He knocked the city preachers, And ho laughed at Sunday laws, While his boy went to the mischief And his girls wore lost bccnu'iOy He had left his rollglon in the country. And when he took his Journey lo. thai place where, all.men stand, s, Ho wnlkod Up to tho Golden Onto As though ho owned tho land, "I know you'ro from, tho city," Snld lit Potor, with n nigh; "And I'm sorry I must toll you Thin Id otico you cnti't get by, For yon'vo loft your reunion In tho country." 1U3V.
