In conjunction with his blacksmithing he sold farm equipment and bought grain for the Farmer's Exchange in AHu ras, and was well known throughout this valley, Warner valley, Paisley and the greater part of Lake and Modoc counties. Being one of the oldest resi dents of this community, having served faithfully until the last, Corvin Vinyard will be remem bered by New Pine Creekers as a man of strong convictions, dutiful, and always ready to lend a helping hand for civic better ment or to one in trouble. He is survived by his wife, Hazel; two brothers. Virgil and Will E., the former of Yuba City, Calif., and the latter of Red Bluff, Calif.; five sisters, Mrs. Mary Miller of New Pine Creek Mrs. AUie Bactell of Lake City, Mrs. Sadie Woodcock of Rose burg, and Misses Ettie and Net tie Vinyard, the twins of the family, who are retired school teachers living in Los Angeles, and one daughter, Olive, of Santa Rosa, Calif.
