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.

Mr. and Mrs. Ed Hartzog re-
turned a couple of Tuesdays ago

She's always pleasant anyway!
Some vacuum minded kids, I
reckon, have been engaging them

Dean Lingle, county librarian,

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,

doubt a heavier turnover in book
rending will take place. Miss Lin

book "Caine Mutiny" by Wouk,

BAKF.D APPLES
Wash and core apples; peel off
about 4 of the peeling and set
apples in a shallow baking dish.
Fill each apple with 2 tablespoons
brown sugar, pour a spoonful of
white wine, water or honey over
the apples and bake for 40 minutes
at 350 degrees or until apples are
tender when tested with a fork.
Transfer to hot serving plate.
Stir 1 cup mincemeat and two
tablespoons of wine or water into
the apple Juice and cook 10 min
utes. Pour syrup over apples and
sprinkle with granualted sugar.
Serve with plain cream, vanilla ice
cream or cream cheese beaten
fluffy with milk.
Use self-sealing waxed paper to
make covers for your small electric
appliances such as a mixer, or
ange juice squeezer, blender, cof
fee grinder, toaster or waffle iron.
Cut the paper in two pieces that
are the shape of the appliance, then
simply seal the top edges of the
halves and slip the cover over.
Thrifty and easy to make, these
covers may be changed when
necessary, and they'll keep soil and
dust off your handy electric kitchen
aids.
To prevent food odors in your
refrigerator, wash the interior with
n solution of two tablespoons ol
baking soda to one quart of water.
Rinse with clear warm water and
wipe dry.
