DICKERSON Harold W. Dickerson, who has been a resident of Hood River for about two years, died at the North Pacific sanitarium early Sunday morning from the effects of appendicitis. Mr. Dickerson was first taken with this trouble about ten days ago and was at once taken to the sanitarium, when he was operated on by Dr. Coffey. Later Drs. Rocky and Barr were called in as consulting physicians. The trouble, however, was so deep seated that he failed to rally. Mr. Dickerson was less than 30 years old, in robust health and just in the prime of his young manhood. He had made many friends here who were very much shocked to learn of his death. For some time he had charge of the ranch of Dickerson & Peck on the east side, and recently with his brother, W.B. Dickerson, bought some valuable property. He came here from Minnesota. The body of the deceased, accompanied by W.B. Dickerson, left Monday for New York where it will be interred in the family burying ground on Long Island. This was posted for reference only.
