CAGE TWELVE HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON SATURDAY, NOVemiw, It Happened. This Way in New Pine Creek By IRVIN FAItlS Laughter faded and a "hush" fell here and there as the sad news of two recent deaths traveled about town. First it was one of our older, more "fatherly" neigh, bors, Walter Butler, age 83, who passed away at his home alter eating a hearty meal at about 1:30 Sunday atternoon, Nov. 10. The second death was that of Cordon "Fat" Patterson, age 6S, whose passing we learned ol only this morning. He had been sick a lew days, and seemingly, not seriously. The lonely bachelor, lo. cal benefactor, and principal own- er of the Green Garden Tavern and the Willow Ranch Pool Hall, became worse on Monday, Mr. and Mrs, Dick Sampson, who have been partners of the deceased for the past three or tour years in the Green Garden operation, discover ed him to be a very sick man Monday and tried to get him to let them take him to the hospital but to no avail. Knowing him to be a victim to yellow Jaundice, having had trouble with his liver before and thinking maybe that he could over-come his ailment they con sented linaliy to uoiae oy ins wish. But his condition became more critical aftor supper so he was tak en to the Lakeview Hospital where he died at about 11:40 that night, Nov. 16. Strangely euougii he was able to dress himself, walked to the car, walked into the hospital and seemed in good spirits. Patterson is supposed to have had relatives back in Minnesota but there seemed no way of get ting in touch with them immedi ately as there were no names ana addresses available. The deceased has been in the tavern and pool- hall business lor the last twelve or more years in NPC and WR and he has helped out numerous people Imanclally from time to time. Valter Butler Is among the last of the real old timers who saw this little village begin grow, gradually and with flourishes, through two or three mining booms -the last being in 1012 when UPC was a town of belter than 2,000. He will be missed by all of us as he was highly respected and well liked by all. He retained a lucid memory of the past right up until the very last. Born In Benlcla, Calif., in 1870, he came to Lakeview with his parents when but 2 years old. He was christened at that age into the Episcopalian Church there. Later his parents settled on the old Franco place, a part of which is now owned by Earl Hindle. Then the family moved to the old Tilllul Reed ranch along the state line, the old family orchard of which still stands down there. It's westward toward the lake be yond the Earnest Robnett ranch home at the edge of town, and Is now a part of the Robnett hold ings. The deceased became interested in milling early in life, learning the business down at the old burr mill at the original town of Willow Ranch located further up Willow Creek from the present town of that name. It was a flourishing western burg before the turn of the century patronized as a stage stop and an over-night place for the many freighters that came along the dusty roads. The town was lo cated near the site where now stands the farm buildings of the Earl Martin ranch, currently leased to Tonl Pilotti who is oper ating a dairy there. But since Willow Creek ran very low during the summer months, ample power was lacking at harvest time when the demands upon it for flour became greatest. So.lt lost business to the new mill which had been erected at New Pine Creek by Jacob Hammerslcy and Joe Robnett where year 'round water was more abundant. With an ever alert eye for bus iness, the late Edward Keller pur chased the Willow Ranch mill and moved the burr to the new mill he was erecting near the mouth of the canyon, not far from the Char lie Cook place. He hired Walter Butler and George Hammerslcy as minora to onerato it. Alter running this mill for a few years he then purchased the other mill and until Keller's death and for many years, even alter the mill had passed into the hands of his son. the late Richard M. Keller, Walter and George continued to work at the mill until comparatively recent years, about six years ago when Ueorgr Hammerslcy passed away. nurmir the boom years, me ae- rensed onened ud a butcher shop in partnership with Jack Mofiitt and this tney operiucn iov num ber of years. As the butcher bus iness slacked olt wnn me owum- ling population after the boom, the deceased woritea agaui at ine ivei- ler mill, sometimes steady and sometimes part time, according to business conditions. The deceased is survived by his wife, Annie; three sons, Earl, Alvln, and Lawrence Butter; one daughter, Mrs. Ruth Lawson, four grandchildren and two great grandchildren. Interment will be made in the local cemetery with funeral services being held at the Ousley-Osterman Chapel and Rev. H. N. Tragilt, of Lakeview. conducting the services. Beware those wintry roads: Mrs. Laura Martin had a very close call last Monday afternoon, Nov. 16, at about 6:30 which greatly un nerved her. She was driving home alone from Lakeview in the first bad snow storm of the year. Her husband was coming . along be. hind, riding In the Chnrlle Vin cent truck. She was watching in the rear-view mirror lo see how thev were making It when sud. denly her car got out of control on the slick road and rolled over the grade. The car rolled com pletely over and landed on Its wheels several feel below In tile old Vanderpool ranch Held now be- inir farmed by Lee O'Nell, about 4 miles this side ol LaKeview. Aside from bruises on her legs, iarm and chest, a small cut on rher forehead and hysteria from shock, she apparently was a very luckv woman to come out alive. She was taken to the Charlie Vln 'ccnt ranch where first aid was rendered by her husband and Mrs. Vincent. The car was badly dam num) with a broken windshield, a caved in too and many other hinmishes but. strangely enough, the doors still opened so that her hMshnnri had little trouble in re- moving her from the car. She was luckv in more ways man one, .m 'V isn't every ' woman that can have an accident and have nci husband on hand to help her out of it. Earl Allan, NPC resident was wheeling along comfortably from the show Sunday evening with his family as were we noi lai 1-r.hiiid when out Jumps a doe deer and oh I dcarl She runs out changes her mind ana starts hnnk. Poor deer sne lost a leg and bled to death Tight there. But Allan stayed wllh ncr in me ibsi when the warden came and picked her up for the children's Home in Portland. Luckily no damage was done to the Allan car, for that animal must of weighed 150 pounds or more. Prank Griffin, of Eureka, cam., hus been visiting wllh his daugh ter, Mrs. Donald Butler and lam ily'for the past week. Mr. and Mrs. Ontman Vincent are now living in NPC after Mr. Vincent's retirement from years of service for the Southern Pa cific Co. as maintenance foreman. Their home here is Just across the street from where his daughter Mrs. Gladys Cooper and family live-so he and wlfcy are happy to bo around. Mr. and Mrs. Ed Hartzog re- turned a couple of Tuesdays ago from a trip over to the const. They visited on their way home with Mr. Harzog's son, Clarence Brad- ley, who is in the grocery store business over In Roseburg. Inc.- dently, I too, know Clarence he used to work In the Ralph Stanley grocery stores In Eugene. Useta cut his nair. Mrs. Cora Seltzer, of Colfax Calif., visited a few days here with Mrs. Annie Gallagher and other friends and relatives, seemed happy to be back to her old home lown again but what the heck? She's always pleasant anyway! Some vacuum minded kids, I reckon, have been engaging them selves In the dishonorable past time of transgressing on private nrooertv and dellaung tires cars about town. It Is rumored that the disaster car might be needed if this practice prevails. Some of the fellas were so mad umm-m umml The air was Just like that when they got up lo go to work or lo town wllh short time allow ance to go on and a predicament like that staring them in the face. Can't blanic 'em cither, what If a life depended on a hurried trip to the doctor? Just then? Budge Mulkcy and his hunting friend who spent about a week here visiting and having a good time, left last Sunday morning af ter they had tnken In the Grange Bazaar the night before. By the wny that baztinr turned out to be a right bang-up affair.

Dean Lingle, county librarian, Is on the Job again and on Tuesday she brought down a fresh set of books for the county branch library here In NPC. Many persons are taking advantage of the branch here and as more people find out about it- with the long winter, reading evenings coming on, no doubt a heavier turnover in book rending will take place. Miss Lin gle especially recommended the book "Caine Mutiny" by Wouk, which she left over from the last set, figuring that perhaps many don't realize the reading and en- Former Bly Man Claims English Girl as Bride in Double-Wedding Of interest lo friends of Bobby D.
