251 Victims of Flood
(Editor's Note In the last
weeks issue we forfot to give rec
ognition to L. VV. Briggs for the
source of our figure of the dead
in the Henoner Flood, tins story
was written by his daughter, Miss
Opal Briggs.)
Another one who nearly gave
his life at the time of the Hepp
ner Flood was Douglas iniruane.
He was city marshall at the time
and rode his horse in water up to
its body to ring the fire bell,
which was then back of what is
now Humphrey's Drug store. He
tried to cross the creek to find his
wife and among many others
hunted all night. It was a sight
never to be forgotten watching
the lanterns up and down the
creek during any time one might
look. His wife's body was not
found for several days.
His brother-in-law, L. - W.
Briggs, gave all his time to direct
ing the laying out of plots and
cplling them at the graveyard. He
also had charge of the city ceme
tery and his service was freely
given to help all in distress and
need. A nurse, who came to Hepp
ner at that time, says she well
remembers the kindly little sex
ton who was so sympatnetic ana
did all he could to help others,
although he too suffered loss. He
kept track of everybody that was
found, also of those snipped away,
and wrote a description of the
missing bodies.

Ploying ,With Fire?
4re you thinking that now,
With all of this rain,
You don't need to worry about
Fire damaging your grain?
Flie wheat in lots of places
Is beginning to turn.
After a little drying wind
It would certainly burn!
Grain Fire Ins. costs the same
No matter when you get it.
50 why continue such a risk?
You may live to regret it.
