AND OLD DIE
Citizens of Heppner and Lex
ington were surprised and pained
to learn, yesterday morning ot
the sudden sickness and death of
Mrs. R. C. McAllister, which oc
curred at her home near Lexing
ton at 1 : 00 a. m. Thursady morn
ing. Mrs. McAllister was taken
suddenly ill at 9 : 00 o'clock Wed
nesday night and it was mid
night before the doctor could
reach hei bedside. When he ar
rived she was unconscious and
never revived, dying an hour
later. We are informed by the
attending physkran that the
exact reason for her sudden ill
ness and death could not be de
termined without a post mortem
examination.
Emma Turner was born at
Shedds, Oregon, July 23, 1884,
being one of a family of eight
children. Her parents are Rev.
and Mrs. J. M. Turner, highly
respected citizens of Salem. They
formerly lived a: Lexington.
The deceased was united in mar
riage with R. C. McAllister at
Lexington a little over eleven
years old, and by her mother
her husband, a son, Welcome, 9
years old, and by here mother
and father and seven brothers
and sisters, namely J. W. Turner
of Camas, Wash.; 0. F. Turner
of Salem ; F. A. Turner of Salem ;
Dr. Turner of Portland; Mrs.
. Wm. Buyers and Mrs. Delbert
Bechtel of Salem and Mrs. W.
D. Graves of Grass Valley.
The deceased lived with her
husband in Heppner for a num
ber of years, Mr. McAllister be
ing engaged in the forestry ser
vice. Last summer they moved
to Grass Valley, Ore., but later
removed from there to Lexing
ton where they have since been
making their home. Mrs. Mc
Allister was an exceedingly in
telligent woman, a thoughtful
and helping as well as loving
wife, a good mother, and a con
siderate and liberal friend and
neighbor. She was a member of
the Rebekah Lodge of this city.
Iler untimely death is mourned
by every person in this com
munitv. where she was well
known and highly beloved. Her
grieving husband, son, father
and mother and brothers and
sisters have the unstinted sym
pathy of her legion of friends in
this community.
The funeral services will be
held at the M. E. Church South
in Lexington, Saturday after
noon, the 28th at 1 :30 p. m.
! Rev J. D. Crooks will have
' charge of the services at the
church. The Rebekah Lodge of
llcppner will attend the services
ed many hardships, losing a
number of cattle and horses in
which their limited means were
invested. They lived in Yamhill
County two years, Lane County
one year, Linn County two years
and in 1859 moved to Eastern
Oregon, settling on the Umatilla
River, then a wild section very
sparsely settled.
It was then in Wasco County
but Umatilla was afterwards
formed, and "Uncle Billy's" ster
ling worth, honesty and integrity
caused the people to select him
two terms as commissioner of
the new county, and also asses
sor two terms. In 1885 Morrow
County was formed from part of
Umatilla and in 1886 he was
elected County Judge. "
Mrs. Mitchell was a kind and
loving companion to her husband
during all the years of their mar
ried life and sunered patiently
with him in his sufferings and
grieft as well as enjoying
his prosperity and health.
She was a woman ot m
dominatable will and energy,
always standing for what she be-
lived to be right. She was one
of the charter members of the
Christian Church of Heppner
when it was organized and had
been a faithful and active mem
ber from its inception. She
was held in high esteem by all
citizens of Heppner and all oth
er people with whom she had
come in contact during her long
and useful life.
Mrs. Mitchell was the mother
of six children, three of whom
preceeded their father to the
grave. Those who remain are
Charley, Oscar and Mrs. N. F.
Whetstone. She is also surviv
ed by several grandchildren and
great-gindchildren.
The funeral services will he
