Hardman Mourns
Loss of Neighbor
By HARDMAN HIGH SCHOOL
The death of Lewis Knighten on
Tuesday of last week brought much
sorrow to our community, and, al
though he had been in poor health
for about three years, the sudden
ness of it was a shock to his many
friends and relatives.
Lewis Knighten was born on Oc
tober 23, 1880, near Dayton, Wash.,
the son of Isaac and Rebecca Kni
ghten. Five years later they came
to Oregon and to this county.
On July 5, 1903 he and Retta
Ashbaugh were married, and in 1917
they moved to the ranch south of
Hardman where they lived until
October, 1937, when Mr. Knighton's
health, caused them to move to
Hardman, as he had suffered a
stroke some time before.
Surviving relatives are his widow,
Retta Knighten, their only son, Neal,
and two grandchildren, Fred and
LaDelle, all of whom live in Hard
man. There are also two brothers,
Fred Knighten of Vale and Edgar
of Monument; and a sister, Mrs.
Alice Warren of .Benton City, Wash.,
as well as many nieces, nephews
and cousins.
The funeral was held on Friday
at the Hardman church which was
unable to accommodate the large
number of friends and relatives who
came. The Rev. Martin Clark of
Heppner assisted by the Rev. E. L.
Ely of Hardman, conducted the
services. Two songs, "One Sweetly
Solemn Thought" and "Going Down
the Valley" were sung by J. O. and
F. W. Turner, 0. G. Crawford and F.
C. Alfred, accompanied at piano by
Mrs. J. O. Turner. Pallbearers were
Floyd Adams, Sabin Hastings, Ken
neth Batty, J. E. Craber, John Has
tings and Jim Burnside. Out-of-town
friends and ' relatives who at
tended the funeral were Fred Kni
ghten and daughter Viola Pruitt and
granddaughter Glenna, all of Vale;
Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Knighten and
Mr. and Mrs. Willis Cason of Con
don; Mrs. Herbert Imil and son,
Herbert, Jr., of Oregon City; Mr.
and Mrs. Rudolph Ashbaugh and
Tom Miles of Bly; Mrs. Golda Lea
thers of Portland; Mr. and Mrs.
Frank Glasscock of La Grande; Mr.
and Mrs. Clair Ashbaugh and Gar
net Ashbaugh, and Mr. and Mrs.
Boyd Redding of Heppner.
Mr. Knighten was the quiet, high
ly respected type of citizen, liked
by the children as well as adults.
His death emphasized how well he
was esteemed by all. The whole
community extends its sympathy to
Mrs. Knighten, to Neal, and to the
other relatives.
Mr. and Mrs. Morris McKitrick,
their two children, and Mrs. Mc
Kitrick's mother, Mrs. King of Dick
erson, N. D., arrived last week from
Bellview, Idaho, where the Mc
Kitricks live. After a visit at the
Duff McKitrick home, they left the
children here, and went on to Yak
ima, Wash. They returned here ear
ly in the week and after a few days
returned to Idaho. Morris and Duff
McKitrick are brothers.
On the sick list this week is little
Joan Adams. Mrs. Sam McDaniel
is feeling much better. Mrs. Mar
vin Brannon, however, who went to
Portland about a month ago for
medical attention, is still ill and un
der the doctor's care. She is at the
home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Morton, but was taken to the hos
pital for intravenous injection. We
all hope she will be better soon.
On Sunday Mr. and Mrs. Victor
Lovgren and children of Eight Mile
passed through on their way to the
camp of Mr. and Mrs. Archie Alder
man at Thomas Springs near Peters
butte, where they spent the day.
Guy Hastings reached here Fri
day afternoon late with the Berg
strom cattle, which ' he was taking
to a place seven miles beyond Spray.
Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Adams and
sons Forest and Lavonne spent Sun
day with Mr. and Mrs. Clarence
Rogers of Eight Mile. Mr. Rogers
took over the Eight Mile postoffice
at the beginning of July and has
already made many improvements.
Mr. and Mrs. Carey Hastings and
daughters spent Saturday night at
the Tamarack lookout as the guests
of Mr. and Mrs. Max Buschke, who
are stationed there.
Several short but rather heavy
falls of rain have lowered the tem
perature during the week. Harvest
ing and haying had to cease in sev
eral places and the Hardman men,
who are in the fields, had a longer
than usual week end at home. The
threat of fires is somewhat less,
although everything is still very dry
and care must be observed. The
crops in the immediate neighbor
hood do not promise to be very good.
Mr. and Mrs. Truman Babb and
J. V. Crawford made a brief bus
iness trip to Portland the past week
end, leaving Friday evening and re
turning Saturday night.
