Pioneer Resident Passes
Adam E. Rinehart, one of the old time residents of this valley, died at Lakeview
last Wednesday evening from a sudden attack of pneumonia. His remains were
brought to Cedarville and interred in the Odd Fellows cemetery Friday afternoon,
the services being conducted by Rev. R. L. Waggoner, assisted by Cedarville
Lodge No. 249, of which Order he has long been a highly esteemed member. The
choir rendered several beautiful and appropriate selections. On the 18th inst.
he motored to Lakeview, taking with him Mrs. Reese Hawkins and Miss Genevieve
Rinehart, and was taken ill the next morning.
Mr. Rinehart was born in Virginia, January 1848. In 1866 he enlisted in the army
and served until 1869, when he came west and for many years was engaged in
business in this State and Nevada, and in 1875, he came to Surprise Valley.
April 26th, 1874, he was married to Miss Margaret Best, the result of that union
being six children, one of whom died in infancy.
He is survived by his widow, and three sons and two daughters: William H., Harry
E. and Marion Rinehart, Mrs. Thos Sizer and Mrs. Grace Beebe, all of whom reside
near Cedarville. He was a man highly esteemed by all who knew him; a man of
sterling qualities, a good citizen and a faithful friend. The ranks of the old
pioneer settlers are sadly depleted, and in a few years, at best, none will be
left to answer the final call. Mr. Rinehart leaves behind to mourn his death, a
sorrowing wife and five children to whom a large circle of warm friends extends
deepest sympathy in their sad bereavement.

Visits Old Home
Henry Kober and L. F. Billups of Fort Bidwell motored to Klamath Falls some days
ago, returning the first of last week, accompanied by Dr. George M. Kober, of
Washington, who will visit the scenes of earlier days and renew acquaintances
with old time friends. Dr. Kober was one of the first Army surgeons and
physicians stationed at Fort Bidwell, where he resided many years and was always
in the front ranks of progression and was active in all things pertaining to the
welfare of the valley, and made many friends who regretted to see him go, even
though it was to a splendid and influential position in Washington with the
government. His nephew, Henry M. Kober, conducts the pioneer mercantile store at
Fort Bidwell and the Doctor will be his guest while in the valley. While he has
passed, the four score milestone he is yet hale and active and bids fair to see
many more birthdays come and go.
A Tragic Death
Last Sunday morning Eddie Schadler, of Fort Bidwell, told his wife that he would
go up the creek and catch a mess of trout, and not returning in the afternoon, a
search was made for him without avail until Monday morning, when his body was
found in shallow pool of water. He was an epileptic sufferer and had no doubt
fallen in the creek face downward and drowned. He leaves a wife and two small
children besides other relatives and his sudden and tragic death was a shock to
the entire community, and deepest sympathy is extended to the bereaved ones in
their sad affliction. Undertaker Kerr went up and had charge of the arrangements
for the funeral, which will probably take place today.
Mrs. Mabel Stimers arrived from Ashland, Ore., last week on a visit to her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. G. Wentzell.
Ed Green motored to Gerlach last week and brought back Mrs. John Benner, who
will visit her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Dyke for a time.
Mr. and Mrs. Bert Hudspeth, formerly of Surprise but now residents of Long
Beach, arrived here yesterday on a visit to the old home place and are the
guests of Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Allenwood, parents of Mrs. Hudspeth.
A young man by the name of Stanley Powell fell off a haystack yesterday at Duck
Lake and had his hip broken by the fall. He was brought here and is now at the
Hotel Surprise under Dr. Kennedy's care, and is doing as well as could be
expected.

Death Of Eddie Schadler
The unexpected death of Edward Lawrence Schadler, which occurred at Big Valley,
Oregon, on July 5th, has cast a gloom of sorrow over the entire community where
he was reared. While on an outing at Big Valley, fishing, in company with his
wife and children, and his wife'' mother and father, the pleasure of the outing
was turned to sorrow. It will probably never be known the exact circumstances
which caused his death; but it is presumed that while along the stream he had a
sinking spell and had gone to the water to bathe his head, as he was found in
the stream of water only about four or five inches deep face downward.
Mr. Schadler was born in Fort Bidwell, Oct. 4, 1900, and was a graduate of the
Surprise valley union High School, with high honors, to such a degree of
excellency that Hon. John E. Raker saw in "Eddie," as he was familiarly known, a
promising young man of ability and character and was instrumental in getting an
appointment for Eddie as one of the two allotted in the Congressional District
to take the examination for Scholarship to enter the Military academy at
Annapolis. In the Spring of 1918, Eddie, his father and a friend departed by
auto for Red Bluff, Cal., the appointed place where said examination was held,
but misfortune overtook the party by the sudden death of Eddies' father in Mt.
Burney. His ever loyalty and love for his devoted mother and sister did not
permit him to leave home at this time and thus sacrificed all the once bright
future in store for him. Eddie Schadler possessed a lovable personality;
everyone who knew him, so far as he would permit without sacrificing a decent
self respect, was called a friend by him. He was of Nature's nobility. For the
sorrowing widow and two little babes, a devoted mother and other kindred we
tender our sincere condolence in this their hour of sorrow, which they have
sustained through the sudden fiat of a Divine Providence.
It is hoped that from an honorable and unspotted life mingling with an unshaken
faith that the family chain temporarily broken will be reunited.
We are sorry to hear that Mr. Hobb's condition is not improving.
Jeff Poindexter, and old and well-known resident of Modoc, was burned to death
in a bunkhouse destroyed by fire at the Dorris ranch neat Alturas one night last
week. His many friends regret to hear of his tragic end.
