FRANK CHANDLER DIES IN WALLA WALLA On receipt of news Monday of the death at Walla Walla, Wash., Sunday of Mrs. Frank Chandler, early day pioneer of the valley, the Hood River Chapter of the Eastern Star, telegraphed to the chapter at the eastern Washington city to take charge of the funeral services held there Tuesday afternoon. Mrs. Chandler, who moved with her husband, who survives, to Walla Walla last year, succumbed to complications following an attack of influenza. News of Mrs. Chandler’s death, reaching Hood River through a letter to E.O. Blanchar from Geo. W. Dimmick, former local man, brought a severe shock to many local friends. “Many families will hear of her death with sincerest grief,” said Mrs. Phoebe Morse, an old friend. “I do not think there is a pioneer home in which she has not visited to administer in time of sickness or distress. She will be missed.” Mrs. Chandler, who is also survived by a son, William D. Chandler, over-seas war veteran, came to the valley with her husband from Nebraska 27 years ago. They first settled on a West Side orchard place. Mr. Chandler for a time was engaged in the mercantile business here. This was posted for reference only.
