Martha Bland, whose maiden name was Needham, Wat born In North Carolina, March 28, 1808, and In her youth moved with ber parent to In dlana, wjiereshe matured, was mar ried to Moses Bland and had ber borne until she left with her husband for Oregon, where they arrived lu 1851, and at once settled near Lebanon, in the neighborhood of which baa been her borne until her decease, July 18, 1895. Early in life she was converted to Christ and became a member of the Methodist Episcopal church, in whose communion she remained until admit ted Into tbe Church Triumphant. Membership in the church with her was not a mere nominal relation with out action, sympathy or sacuJce for Christ her Master, but a connection with the church of God which she honored with a cousecurated life, a faithful service and regular atten dance upon the means of grace until the infirmities of age resulting in feebleness of body prevented her. Nearly all the old christians of Linn county and many of tbeir children re member "Grandma" Bland as a faith ful attendant and active worker at the campmeetlng8 and quartly lnvefeasts of tbe Methodist church. Her experi ence waa positive and clear, her life oouBistent, and as a result her depart ure was a' glorious translation and not a reluctant death. As in the case of Elijah, may her mantle fall upon some worthy Elisha who shall encourage and help forward the armies of God't modern Israel.

The funeral services were held at the M. E. church at 1:00 o'clock July 18, from which her body, followed by a large number of relatives and friends, was borne to the family lot In Lebanon cemetery, and committed to the ground according to the burial ser vice of the Methodist Episcopal church .
