He suffered great pain during the illness previous to his death > and > had several hemorrhages from his ear, indicating a fracture at the base of > the brain. > The jury, composed of six representative citizens, believe that the > ill-fated young man's death was caused by a beating he received almost a > month ago at the hands of a couple of thugs. > Tubbs was picking fruit at that time in the Bidwell orchard.

    2. Stan, I am sorry, but I don't know. I checked the other deeds I have and there are no more with GARRETT on them. This particular property is where the Lake City Post Office now stands according to the assessor's maps. I have found, however, in the probate records of Albert C. STREIG (not transcribed yet), in a listing of accounts receivable for the estate the name M. M. GARRETT (owes) $10.00. Sorry that I can't be more help here. Janece Carter Streig streig3@aol.com

SURPRISE COUPLE ARE MARRIED Wedding bells, while not noisily, were nevertheless joyously and solemnly rung on last Wednesday, December 23, when the Rev. Virgil A.

They were accompanied by Mrs. Dora Kafader, one of the teachers at Lake City and Harry Wimer, brother of the groom, who stood with the happy couple.

May you have just enough trouble, To appreciate victories won." HAS ARM BADLY LACERATED FRIDAY Last Friday evening, just before going to bed and after turning out the light, Jim Baty stumbled against a stick of wood and fell forward. Naturally, a fellow will stick out his hands in an effort to catch himself. This is what Baty did and the worst part of it, is that he stuck his arm through a window. His left arm was badly lacerated by the glass, in fact the tendons to his hand were completely severed and it is doubtful at this time whether or not he will have full use of his hand again. He was started for Alturas last Saturday morning, but due to the roads being blockaded with snow, the car, in which he was in, was forced to return to Cedarville. Sunday morning the road being open, he went to Alturas with Dr. Kennedy, who operated on the injured member. EHLE ESTATE TO BE DISTRIBUTED A hearing upon letters of administration of the estate of Mary B. Ehle, was heard in the superior court Monday morning before Judge Burroughs and the application was granted the public administrator, D. E. Edenholm. The settlement of the Ehle estate was delayed many months pending the outcome of a contest by relatives of the holographic will of Mrs. Mary B. Ehle, which left her property to Mrs. Phoebe Boatwright. The will was set aside in the Superior Court here and the appellate court later upheld the decision. The estate will now be sold and distributed to a number of relatives. John and Albert Erramouspe were business visitors in Alturas last Thursday from Eagleville. Mr. and Mrs. Heard of Lake City have moved to their new ranch home, the former W. A. Odbert ranch just north of that town. Born at Cedarville, Cal., December 24th, 1931, to Mr. and Mrs. Sid Harris of Fort Bidwell, a fine nine-pound baby boy. Both mother and son are getting along fine. Mr. and Mrs. George Kober spent the holidays visiting with George’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Walter Kober. ~~~~~~ Billie C. & Anita 'Jean' Reynolds Modoc County, California "The Last Frontier" www.rh2o.com/modoc --- Our outgoing mail is checked by avast!

    1. Sawmill Alexander and Henderson of NPC
    2. Joyce Cooper
    3. Hello Lester and Researchers, " The Growth of Lake County, Oregon" by Georgie Ellen Boydstun Stephenson makes these mentions about that mill: P.58 says that the" Lake County Examiner newspaper dated May 6, 1920, mentioned Hayden Henderson of the sawmill firm ofAlexander and Henderson of New Pine Creek." P. 68 of the same book has a list of sawmills1900-1924. It includes Henderson and Alexander at New Pine Creek as one of the 1920 sawmills listed I believe that it may be Hayden Henderson who is mentioned on p.23. There is a list of people who came to New Pine Creek in 1869. This person is listed as H.M.Henderson. Sorry that is all that I see about that sawmill or these people in this book There is information about other mills and logging companies, school lists etc. in this book. Unfortunately, I do know that not all of the information is exactly accurate, so one would have to read any of this information with a critical eye. Joyce in CA http://www.geocities.com/jarmscoop

    1. First Presbyterian Church of Lakeview part 2
    2. Joyce Cooper
    3. Hello Ralph and Researchers, Here is the rest of what is written in the Growth of Lake County book about the church. For some years the pastor was housed in the basement of the church building. Later the Sunday School, classes and other gatherings met in the basement. Then the pastors lived in rented houses. Finally in 1951 the congregation provided a manse. Rev. Stafford was the first pastor to occupy the manse. The house belonging to J. and Rosie Frankl stood on what is now F. St. South where the big brick Heryford house now stands. It was moved to G.St. onto a lot adjoining the church property and was made into a manse. William H. Heryford purchased this property from the Frankls in 1889 and the deed was dated July 17, 1889, signed by County Clerk, Will T. Boyd. The next major addition was the Presbyterian Christian Education building which was commenced in 1953 but not completed until several years later. It contained a meeting room, classrooms and a kitchen. In 1961 the chrch celebrated its 50th anniversary. Three of the Charter members were still living. Mrs. Gwendolyn Corbett Snyder was the only one who was present for that occasion. In 1965, the board recommended that replacing the old building was advisable from an economic standpoint. The building was razed and the new sanctuary was constructed on the same site. It was dedicated at services on Palm Sunday, April 7, 1968. In addition to the pastors previously named, the following men served as pastors of the church. Rev. Howell Isaac.1917 Rev. Griffiths.... 1920 Rev. E.H. Edgar...1922 Rev. George A. Wilber....1924 Rev. David Oastler.... 1928 Rev. A.G. Miller.... 1930 Rev. Joseph M. Johnson 1934 Rev. J.O. Whitsett.... 1935 Rev. Frederick J. Moore....1938 Rev. George Mesik.... 1939 Rev. Eugene Nelson....1940 Rev. Louis Sampson...1946 Rev. KennethStaffore....948 Rev. C. Wayne Julier...1953 Rev. William Snyder....1959 Rev. Elwyn Tesche..... 1961 Hope this information is a help.

    1. First Presbyterian Church of Lakeview part 1
    2. Joyce Cooper
    3. Hello Ralph and Researchers, Thank you for your response and interest in the History of the Presbyterian Church of Lakeview. "The Growth of Lake County, Oregon" by Georgie Ellen Boydstun Stephenson has this information: "The First Presbyterian Church of Lakeview had its actual beginning in the fall of 1910, although it was not officially organized until the following year. " "In the fall of 1910, the Ladies' Aid Society was formed under the leadership of Mrs. R.M. Corbett (Mrs. Ralph M. Corbett?) and Mrs. Leslie Seager. Others in the initial group were Mrs. Haarriett Campbell, Mrs. John O'Neill and Mrs. R.R. Vandervoort. Their purpose and intent was to establish a church. They met regularly each second week at the home of some member. New members joined the group as time went on." "As a result of the efforts of this group, the First Presbyterian Church was organized on May 14, 19100 with 17 Charter members. They were: Mr. and Mrs. R.M. Corbett (Mr. and Mrs. Ralph M. Corbett?) Miss Gwendolyn Corbett Mr. and Mrs. J.G. Campbell Mrs. E.D. Everett Mr. and Mrs. W.L. Webster Mr. and Mrs. John O'Neill Mrs. Leslie Seager Mr. H.C. Hunker Mrs. M.J. Whorton Mrs. R.R. Vandevoort Mrs. W.R. Boyd Mrs. H.W. Boyd Mrs. H.W. Morgan Mrs. Harriett Campbell" "Mr. R.M. Corbett and Mr. H.C. Hunker were the first elders selected and the first trustees named were Mrs. H. W. Morgan Mr. J.D. Willitts Mr. John O'Neill Dr. E.D. Everett Mrs. R.M. Corbett" "Assisting the organization of the church were: Rev. Weston Shields Mr. J.B. Mason Rev. A. J. Irwin who delivered the sermon for that occasion" "The first Presbyterian Church of Lakeview started out as a missionary church depending upon outside aid. It retained that status until 1945. The following men served as missionary pastors of the new church: Rev. Oscar Werner .....summer of 1911 Rev. W.S. Pyrse.....Sept. 1911 Rev. O.T. Morgan.....July 1912 Rev. Shell....Feb. 1913 Rev. George A. Crawford......May 1913" He was the person who instigated the building of the first church building for this church group. The new building was partly financed by the board of directors and was dedicated on October 21, 1917. For several years prior to this time the church meetings had been held in the Old Masonic Hall, which was located where the Examiner building stood. The new church, a gray, pebble-stucco edifice served the community well for many years.
