Death of Wm. Ayers.
At Pendleton. Oreorm. Thurs
day, Sept. 11, 1913, occurred the
death of William Ayers, a pioneer
resident of Morrow county, who
was a patient at the Eastern Ore
gon hospital for the care of the
insane.
1 he remains were brouerht to
Heppner on Friday and funeral
services held from the M. E.
church, South, Saturday after
noon at 2 o'clock, Rev. H. A. Van
Winkle officiating. Interment
took place in the family lot in
Masonic cemetery.
William Ayers was born near
Terre Haute, Indiana, May 6,
1835. While yet a child he moved
with his parents to Des Moines
county, Iowa, where they en
gaged in farming. Later they
moved to Washington county,
and in 1847 to Keokuk countv. in
the same state. His father died
when William was about ten
years of age and being the oldest
son he was dbhged to early learn
to carry the burdens of life, get
ting little opportunity to attend
even the primitive schools of that
time. This lack of opportunity
he made up for in careful read
ing at odd times and industrious
research in later years.
In 1853 he crossed the nlains
to Oregon City. After spending
a winter in Oregon he went to
California and operated in the
mines for two years, accumulat
ing a fortune, and then returned
to Iowa via the Isthmus. He
bought land there and farmed
until 1862 when he again sold out
and crossed the plains with his
brother. He settled on Little
Butter creek in this county in
1870, where he took a homestead
to which was later added about!
1200 acres, making one of the
best ranches in the county. He
engaged in cattle and sheep rais
ing for many years, and finallv
retired, settling m Heppner.
Mr. Ayers was married to Ma
tilda C. Bourd, in Decatur coun
ty, Iowa, October 4, 1857, and is
survived by his widow and three
children, Mrs. R. G. Currin, of
Payette, Idaho, Alfred L. Avers.
of Parkers Mill, this county, and
Mrs. b. VV. bpencer, of Heppner.
He was a member of the M. E
church, South, of Heppner, and
citizen highly respected in thit
community where he resided foi
so many years.
Held His Audience.
Evangelist Moody was invited it
lis early days to preach in a cluirci
rhose congregation was notorious
for leaving before the end of tin
sermon. Moody was warned of this,
but he said confidently:
T11 trv to iix them.
And he cast about in his mind.
and the morning he entered the
notorious congregation's pulpit he
said : "
My sermon will be divided into
two parts. One part is addressed
to saints, the other part is address
ed to sinners. Let us take the sin
ners first.'"
lie preached for twenty minutes.
Then he said :
"I have now finished with the sin
ners. They may, if they please,
take their hats and go. The saints
will remain."
But nobody departed. That con
gregation for the first time in its
history remained in a body till the
end of the service. New York

World's Largest Index.
On Beacon hill, in Boston, under
the golden dome of the statehouse,
is one of the largest indexes in the
world. In fact, the Russian public
index is the only one known to be
larger. More than 9,000,000 names,
births, marriages and deaths in
Massachusetts from 1S43 make a
complete record, showing not only
where people were born and where
they died, but also statistics which
are vital in making up calculations.
Before this time, saV3 the National
Magazine, the records were kept in
the different towns, but now they
are all concentrated in the state
house in Boston. In a relatively
email space all these records are
preserved.
