Last Sunday and Monday were the most disagreeable of the season, the wind was
blowing a gale and snow flying in all directions, which will make travel over
the mountains difficult. The ground in the valley is covered from four to six
inches deep with snow and this storm bids fair to be the heaviest of the season.
Mrs. Dorton, mother of C. M. Dorton, of Eagleville, died last Tuesday. No
particulars have been received.
Mrs. Fred Wallace returned last week from Fresno, where she went to visit her
mother, Mrs. Jacques Weber, who has been ill but is now better.
The New Era says that a report is current that Jeff Mabrier, formerly of this
place, serving a long prison term from this county had become violently insane
and in an effort to restrain him, it was necessary to shoot him to save life. If
the report be true it is a sad ending of a life that otherwise might have been a
useful one.

Burtis Ritz speaking the words of comfort and pointing all to the Giver of all
good and perfect gifts. Mrs. Polander, was a mother and a friend to all with
whom she came in contact and was loved by all who knew her. She was a Christian
mother so weep not. “A Christian mother, above all others can deeply implant and
faithfully cherish the seeds of Truth in the young and tender heart. The mother
moulds the life, character and destiny of man. Every stage and phase of life is
touched and influenced by her. Infancy, childhood and manhood and old age center
alike in her. She is both the morning and evening star of life. The angel spirit
of the home.”
