Abraham Lewelling
Passes at Ontario
By HARDMAN HIGH SCHOOL
Most of the older persons of this
vicinity knew of Abraham Lewelling,
who was father-in-law of Charles
Hastings. Mr. Lewelling was the son
of pioneers, John and Sarah Ann
Lewelling, who settled near Trout
dale in 1852. He was born there on
Feb. 9, 1861, and moved with his
parents to Rhea creek in August of
1871 Later they moved to the moun
tains eight miles south of Hardman,
and in 1881 they settled on what is
now Mrs. Ada Cannon's ranch. In
1895 he married Melvina Tellis, and
the next year they moved to the
Condon country. Ten years later
they went to Prairie City and in
1910 left for California. Three years
later they returned and settled in
Malheur county where he lived up
to the time of his death. He was in
jured on June 27 of this year and
died in the Ontario hospital on July
31. He left six children, four daugh
ters and two sons. His wife died sev
eral years ago. He was buried in the
I. O. O. F. cemetery at Vale. Mr. and
Mrs. Carey Hastings and Elwood
Hastings went to Ontario to see him
about a week before he died.
Recently Mr. and Mrs. Tom Wells
were dinner guests at the home of
Mr. and Mrs. George Hayden in the
mountains.
Mrs. Sabin Hastings and daugh
ter are again out in camp with Mr.
Hastings after a short stay in town.
Mr. and Mrs. Orlando Jones of
Tulsa, Okla., arrived Friday for a
visit at the A. D. Inskeep home.
Mrs. Jones is Mrs. Inskeep's young-1
est sister Alice, whom she had not
seen for about twenty years. When
they leave here, the Jonses plan on
going to San Francisco to visit the
fair before reutrning to Oklahoma.
John McDaniel and Lewis fin
ished their combine jobs at the Green
ranch Wednesday evening. On Sat
urday they were attending to busi
ness in Heppner, and preparing to
cut wood in the mountains south of
town.
The Burton valley school closed
Wednesday of last week, and very
likely there will be a school there
no longer. Miss Marguerite Glavey
who has taught there for several
terms is already engaged to teach
elsewhere in the county. Miss Gla
vey was well liked and the Burton
Valley folks will miss her.
Mr. and Mrs. James Brannon and
children and Herbert McDaniel left
Friday for Prineville where they
expect to reside. Les Brannon has
been working there for some time.
Nelson Hesseltine, a brother of
Mrs. Sabin Hastings, left Friday for
Port Gamble, Wash. He has been vis
iting his sister and her family for
the past several weeks.
Word has been received that Mrs.
Muriel McCutcheon went south with
relatives and is visiting the San
Francisco fair.
Harlan Adams returned Sunday
evening from the mountains where
he had been fighting fire for several
days.
On Thursday Mrs. Neal Knighten
and the 4-H club members and oth
ers returned from Bull Prairie where
they had spent a happy and profit
able three days camping.
On Wednesday of last week the
Birthday club as well as many oth
er friends, especially from the Eight
Mile community, drove to the moun
tain home of Mr. and Mrs. Tyndal
Robison, the occasion being Mrs.
Robison's birthday. Sandwiches, cof
fee, pickles, cake, and ice cream
were served under the trees. Mrs.
Robison received many lovely gifts.
It was a very enjoyable party.
Miss Mildred Reynolds and Harold
E. Craber, both of The Dalles, were
married there on Sunday, July 30,
at a four o'clock church ceremony.
Mr. and Mrs. Craber will reside in
The Dalles where Mr. Craber has
been employed for many years.
On Monday Mrs. Floyd Adams
and daughters, Clara, Betty and
Nancy, and Mildred Clary went to
Heppner where they spent much of
the day at the pool.
Saturday evening was a gala oc
casion here. At 8 o'clock over a
hundred fripnds of Mr. and Mrs.
Darrell Harris, who were recentlv
married, gathered at the high school
Heppner
for a bridal shower. Ice cream and
case were served alter whmh m
Harris opened the many useful and
beautiful gifts. Then the crowd
joined others waiting at the hall.
and the charivari took the form of
a dance. Local musicians played and
everybody enjoyed themselves until
1:30. The whole community extend
their best wishes to Mr. and Mrs.
Harris.
The four-day camping trip at Bull
prairie, enjoyed by the Hardman
4-H clubs, their leader, Mrs. Neal
Knighten, and outside guests proved
to be a real success. The four days
were spent quite profitably work
ing on the 4-H work: sewing per
iods, demonstrations, judging, and
preparations for the exhibit. But the
time was not all spent at work a
good deal of fun was thrown into
the bargain. There were hikes thru
the timber around the camp; a real
old campfire at night, around which
games were played and songs sung;
and numerous other ways of en
joying an excursion in the moun
tains. On Thursday noon, the camp
ers feeling they had accomplished
the purpose of their outing, rather
reluctantly turned homeward.
