Our people were much surprised to learn of the death of Mrs. Nancy

Walker, which occurred at 4 a.m. Wednesday. She had been quite ill,

but was thought to be recovering. She was aged 79 years and was a

native of Illinois. She came with her husband to Oregon in 1903, the

husband dying 7 years ago. She was a faithful member of the Christian

church. Deceased is survived by her daughter, Mrs. Eva Racey, of this

city, and two sons, Charles, of Paisley, Oregon, and Fred, of Fort

Laramie, Wyoming. Funeral services were held at 2 p.m. yesterday,

attended by many of our people. The remains were laid in the city

cemetery, beside those of the husband."
