BOER GENERAL AMONG INTERESTING
PERSONAGES MET BY
Charles Clark, then a soldier in
His Majesty's army in South Africa,
was present when General DeVett
turned over his sword to the British
at the close of the Boer war. Mr.
Clark, now publisher of the High
River (Alta.) Times, recalled on his
visit here before departing Tuesday
morning, , that he obtained permis
sion from ihe Boer general to take
some snapshots of him, now among
his prized memoirs.
The guerilla warfare leader of the
Boers was just like a mosquito, said
Mr. Clark. He would lead his armies
over precipices, through narrow
gorges, everywhere, anywhere, fear
lessly and with treachery, causing
deep respect among his British foe
men. At the time of surrender, the
general was clad in many habili
ments of the British, including blue
jacket with large gold buttons, which
he had taken from prisoners, though
the ensemble effect was of consider
able ludicrity.
A contrast was afforded some
months later, when after being mus
tered out of the service Mr. Clark

CANADIAN EDITOR
was in London and dropped into a
tailor shop to acquire civilian rai
ment before returning home to Can
ada. He was in the back of the shop
when he saw three gentlemen,
dressed in the height of fashion, high
silk hats, Prince Alberts and all,
come in the front door. Recognizing
them as distinguished gentlemen, he
inquired if the clerk knew them.
He was informed that one Was Gen
eral DeVett. Then approaching the
general, he extended his hand, say
ing, "I don't suppose you remember
me, general."
The general quickly responded,
"Wait a minute, now. Let me remem
ber. Ah, you are my Canadian friend
whom I met in South Africa." It was
apparent, though, that the general
had changed under the British in
fluence encountered after he had left
the wars.
General DeVett has not been the
only noted acquaintance of the Can
adian editor and brother of Malcolm
D. Clark, local merchant whom he
called at Heppner to visit. The Prince

tant from High River, and the edi
tor had received hospitality at Ed
ward Windsor's hands. He termed
Edward a likeable chap, whose un
fortunate abdication could not have
been averted under the circum
stances. But he expressed sympathy
for the uncrowned king because of
unnecessary persecution that fol
lowed after abdication. When Ed
ward stepped aside, they should have
left him alone, said Mr. Clark.
Another notable whose friendship
Mr. Clark cherishes, is Frazier Hunt,
author, who also has a farm not far
from High River, and whose son Bob
is at present employed in the Times
office. Through his acquaintanceship
with Mr. Hunt, the visiting editor
recalled having several times met
Irvjn S. Cobb and Peter B. Kyne,
two noted American authors. He
was among guests present at the
Hunt farm mansion one time when
the visiting authors were being hon
ored, and Mr. Hunt announced that
a talking marathon would be held
between Kyne and Cobb.
Mr. Kyne talked interestingly on
international relationships, as Mr.
Clark recalled, but he was more
taken with Cobb's humorously spiced
address in which the latter drew
Morrow County, Oregon, and duly filed
for record by the Clerk of said County
on the 26th day of July, 1938, which said
Certificate is in the amount of $28,320.09
being the amount then due and delin
quent for taxes for the. year 1937 and
prior on which a period of three years
has expired since the earliest date of
delinquency of taxes levied and charged
on any tax roll of Morrow County, Ore
gon, and on which there has not been
paid two annual installments of such de
linquent taxes, each installment being
one-quarter of the taxes of the earliest
year of delinquency, in accordance with
Chapter 5, Oregon Laws, Special Ses
sion, 1935, as amended by Chapter 96,
Oregon Laws 1937, and also the taxes on
the 1936 and 1937 tax rolls, together
with interest and costs thereon, upon
real property situated in said County
hereinafter described, which said re
spective parcels of real property were
assessed respectively to you as is here
inafter set forth in this summons.
You and each of you are further noti
fied that in the subjoined tabulation
of this summons, the left hand column
of said tabulation under the words
