In 1891, the family once more moved to the United States, settling in their former home in Nebraska, where they remained for fifteen years, coming to Payette in 1916. Mr. Bulmer in company with his wife left Payette six months ago, going to Eugene, Oregon in search of health. Here, at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Joe Franswa, he died of anemia on November 20th, 1923, aged 66 years. For four years, and until his health broke down, Mr. Bulmer was janitor at the Payette county court house. It was to his love and knowledge of growing things that the court house owed the wonderful display of ferns and blooming plants which adorned the windows of the building, the fame of which had spread to neighboring counties. A letter received from Mrs. Bulmer states that the casket was hidden by beautiful floral offerings, many of which had been sent by Payette friends. Besides his widow, Mr. Bulmer leaves six children to mourn him. These are: Mrs. C.E. Crook of Venice, California; Mrs. Joe Franwa of Eugene, Oregon; C. W. Bulmer of Neligh, Nebraska; J.

For four years Charles E. Woodward had made his home at Nyssa with a man by the name of Frank Winton, but on October 8th he left the place, taking Mr. Winton's shot gun with him. No trace of the missing man had been discovered and it was thought he had gone away as he had been rather eccentric since suffering from an attack of influenza a couple of years ago. The gruesome find, however, made by the hunters was his dead body, and he had beyond a doubt committed suicide. The unfortunate man had evidently gone to the cabin and then placed the muzzle of the shot gun in his mouth and in some manner discharged the gun, in all probability by throwing the hammer with his foot. The entire top of his head was blown off and the sight was indeed a sickening one. Word was brought to Payette and the sheriff's office notified. Deputy Christianson, County Attorney Haines and the County Coroner at once went to the scene and made a thorough examination of the surroundings and of the dead body. It was decided that an inquest would not be necessary and friends of the dead man were notified to take his remains for burial. It is believed the unfortunate man had become temporarily demented as a result of his attack of flu and committed he deed in that frame of mind.

B. Wood of the New Plymouth neighborhood came as a distinct surprise and shock to the community in which he was generally well know. Mr. and Mrs. Wood had been entertained to dinner at the Miller ranch near New Plymouth on last Sunday, where they had remained during the afternoon, enjoying the hospitality of their hosts, with no seeming indications, imminent to his sudden passing away.

Instantly she took the wheel and stopped the car. Aid was given immediately by occupants of another car which just at that moment met them, and a physician was hastily summoned who pronounced him dead, due to apoplexy. Mr. Wood was at one time certified public accountant with the Van Deusen Bookkeeping Syndicate at Weiser, and at another time held the position of accountant with the King Hill, government irrigation project, and was well and favorably known in the business world. He was a Mason of high standing. Funeral rites were conducted by Washoe Lodge and A. F. & A. M. from his late home at New Plymouth , today.
