Mrs. A. J. KchhcII called at the Gla
cier office to slate that the remarks in
the items insinuating t hat Mr. Kessell
was not complying w ith the continuous
residence elau-e of the hoinestea law
is not true. While Mr. Kessell is now
ittiM'nt iu Sherman county, Mrs. Kessell
and the children are living on the home
stead. Mrs. Kessell says that when
Mr. Kessell was in The Dalles last week,
he inquired at the land office to see If
he was infringing on his homestead
rights in any way, ami was told there
was nothing wrong in what he had
done
Gilbert Kdgington, the school teacher
there, gave up a $'i0 position at Wasco,
Mrs. Kessell says, to accept the position
of teacher in the Duke's Valley school
at !0 a month in order that he may be
able to spend two nights of the week on
his homestead.
Mrs. Kessell was very anxious to
learn the name of the correspondent
who has been sending in these items.
