    1. SURPRISE VALLEY RECORD - CEDARVILLE, MODOC COUNTY, CAL.
    2. OurFamily
    3. OCTOBER 18, 1916 Fredrick Daniels and Miss Ruby Adel Vernon and Charles Vernon and Miss Marilla D. Chandler, all of Lake City, were married at Alturas last Friday, and on Saturday came over to Lake City. The Record extends congratulations. Born - In Cedarville, Cal., Oct. 10, 1916, to the wife of Jesse Stephenson, a boy Mrs. M. Henderson, one of the pioneer residents of Modoc, passed away at Alturas last week The little son of Attorney A. K. Wylie was taken below last week for expert medical treatment, the little fellow being afflicted with an abscess that failed to respond to treatment here. B. B. Robinson took Mrs. W. T. Cressler and Mrs. Reese to Geralch, last Thursday, and from there the two latter continued on to San Francisco where Mrs. Cressler goes for medical treatment. Mrs. Cressler has many warm friends here who hope to hear of her complete recovery in the near future. OCTOBER 25, 1916 J. C. ALLEN BADLY HURT Last Saturday evening, the buggy team driven by J. C. Allen, became frightened and ran away, throwing Mr. Allen and Wm. Simson out. Mr. Simson suffered a sprained ankle, but Mr. Allen was badly hurt and was brought to Dr. Coates Sanitarium, where he remained in an unconscious condition until Sunday night. His face is badly bruised and the skull slightly fractured. He is now improving and it is to be hoped that he will soon recover. The accident was caused by the team becoming frightened at a motor cycle, ridden by Ed Green, just north of John Dyke's place. "Uncle" John McVey left last week for San Francisco to have an operation fro Cataracts on his eyes. He has been almost totally blind for the past year. We sincerely hope that his sight may be fully restored. A HORRIBLE TRAGEDY Reports reached here this morning of a horrible tragedy, which blotted out the lives of Wilson Barnett and Alex Drummond, two young men of Eagleville. No definite detail of the awful accident has as yet been received. It seems that the two young men went up on Emerson Creek, west of Eagleville to cut wood. Benny Sawtelle and L. Blubecker were camped some distance from where the two ill fated young men had placed their camp, and about 5 o'clock in the evening they heard a loud explosion and thought they would go over and see what caused it. On arriving at the camp they found the two young men dead. Their death was undoubtedly due to the explosion of the powder that they had taken out to blast wood with. Coroner McCloud was at once sent for and will hold an inquest today. The accident is a sad one, as both young men were highly esteemed. Wilson Barnett leaves a mother, Mrs. Grant Warren, of Eagleville and Alex Drummond came here from Placer County, where he has relatives. Born - At Dr. Coates Sanitarium, in Cedarville, Cal., Oct 22, 1915 (I believe this should be 1916), to the wife of Mervin Cannon, a boy
