Word reached town Sunday afternoon that Capt. Wellington Palmer, an old settler of
Hartford, had been found ead in bed at hishome. Coroner Stafford was notified, and
investigating the matter, found that the old gentleman had retired apparently in 
his usual health Saturday night and when called Sunday morning had failed to respond. 
Death had apparently resulted from heart failure, to which the deceased had been 
subject for some time.

DEATH OF NELS PALMQUIST

Last week Friday, at the Peterson homestead, a mile and a quarter from town, occurred 
one of the saddest cases of death that is seldom recorded. What makes the 
circumstances sadder still is the manner in which a young life went out and a hard 
working, industrious young man was sent into eternity. Nels Palmquist, a single man 
about 30 years of age and a logger who had resided in the county the past 12 years 
was out sleighriding with a party of friends and all seemingly enjoing a good time. 
One of the party had just returned from Seattle and brought back with him a jug of 
liquor. Of this they all indulged quite freely, but Nels it seems sipped more of the 
stuff aboard than could be stowed away in his kind of craft. The result was he got 
swamped and that much wiskey was lost to the living. In other words he got helplessly 
drunk, and upon returning to the Peterson place his companions had to help him out of 
the sleigh. They laid him down in the woodshed to sleep off his load, covering him 
over with a lot of old blankets, but when they returned in an hour he was found dead. 
The body was removed into the house and Coroner Bakeman notified at Everett. That 
official came up Saturday and empaneled a jury, when the facts were developed as 
above stated. Palmquist was a native of Sweden, but the reporter did not learn 
whether he has any living relative or not in this country. The remains were buried 
Sunday.

SNOHOMISH- Aug. 8,

David Lewis PARAMORE, G.A.R. veteran thirty-second degree Mason and popular 
Snohomish citizen died at 2 o'clock Sunday morning in the Snohomish hospital from 
pneumonia after an illness of a week's duration. 

"D. Lew" as Mr. PARAMORE was known to young and old here, and as he signed his name, 
was born in Greenburg, Ind. March 18, 1840. He served two enlistments in the 
Civil war from 1861 to 1862 he was a private in Company B 12th Indiana Inf., and 
in 1864 was a corporal in Company A 134th Indiana infantry. He learned the drug 
business in Indiana and later continued this occupation in Virginia City, Nev., 
and Oakland and San Francisco, Calif., before coming to Snohomish 30 years ago. 

In 1891 Mr. PARAMORE was enlisted by Lot Wilbur, pioneer druggist of this city and 
a few years later went into business for himself, retiring in about 1912. Shortly 
after coming here he was made president of the Snohomish Bicycle Club and it was 
under his discretion that the "bicycle tree" a mile south h of town was arched out 
and a bicycle path from Snohomish through the tree was made. 

Mr. PARAMORE was greatly interested in Masonic work and belonged to all the orders 
of Masonry. He was a past master of Centennial lodge No. 25 of this city and a 
member of Snohomish lodge No 15, F.& A.M. He also was past commander of the Knights 
Templar commandery and a member of Masonic council, both in Everett. He was a past 
grand night priest of the R.A.M. of the state and was the Washington state 
representative of the Masonic lodge in England. 

A trip to England, from which Mr. PARAMORE returned about a month ago, is believed 
to have brought on his death, his health having failed after leaving here. While 
he was in England the lodge of that country was in session and he was accorded 
great deference and honors. 

For more than a year prior to 1921 Mr. PARAMORE was in charge of the medical 
department of the Western Washington hospital. While commander of Morton post No. 
10 G.A.R. In 1910 the veterans erected a handsome monument at the G.A.R. cemetery, 
which was dedicated with ceremonies in which the late Governor Lister and Mr. 
PARAMORE made addresses. At the time of his death he was a trustee of the G.A.R. 
cemetery association. 

Mr. PARAMORE was a single man and is survived by a sister Mrs. Etta O. Jones of 
Osceola, Iowa, and by a niece of the same city. Funeral services will be conducted 
by the Masons and the G.A.R. Wednesday at 2 p.m. at Masonic hall. Interment will 
take place in the G.A.R. cemetery.

The sad intelligence reaches us from Oso that Mrs. V.P. Parker was drowned 
Thursday at 2 o'clock, while attempting to cross the river in a canoe, in company 
with Mrs. John Iles. When about half way across they were, in some manner, both 
thrown out into the water more than waist deep. Mrs. Iles succeded in wading 
ashore but Mrs. Parker was carried down the river into deeper water while her 
pitiful cries for help almost distracted Mrs. Iles. who walked up and down the 
river wringing her hads and crying for help. After near an half-hour had elapsed
Henry Fraily and Marion Conover heard the cries and ran to the bank of the river 
to find Mrs. Parker's dead body lodged against the root of a tree a few rods below
the scene of the accident. Mrs. Parker was an estimable lady and her untimely 
death will be a sad loss to her husand and three young children. Haller City Times

Frank Parsley, age 37, committed suicide last night between 7 and 9 o'clock alone 
in a little shack on Hill street south of Pacific by shooting himself with a 
38-calibre Smith & Wesson revolver just abover the right ear, the bullet lodging 
against the bone of the opposite side of the head. Parslely, who has been in the 
city for the past six or seven years, was formerly a steam shovel engineer. For 
the last two years he had been suffering from a cancer under his right jaw, which 
in a short time would have proved fatal and it is thought, inasmuch as he had 
repeatedly threatened to committ suicide, the deed was done to end his misery. He 
had been living in ther little shack mentioned with Mrs. J.C. Kimball and the 
county has supported him for several months. She left to come to town about 7 
o'clock last night and when she returned shortly before 9, she found Parsley dead 
on the bed with a pistol shot would above his right ear, still grasping the 
weapon in his right hand. After viewing the remains at Jeread & Co's morgue and
hearing the testimony of Mrs. Kimball, Coroner Bakeman concluded that it was a 
clear case of suicide. The deceased was unmarried and came here from Spokane. Most 
of his relatives reside in Missouri and Indiana. He has a brother in California, 
but it is not known where. He will be buried by the county.

L. R. Payne, employed as woodsman by the Brown's Bay Logging company, was instanrly 
killed at 5:30 p.m. yesterday, when a blast literally blew off the top of his head. 
Coroner Maulsby was called to the camp south of Everett, giving an opinion that the 
fatality was purely accidental. Payne, in company with several other men, was leaving
work to return home for supper. Payne suggested making a short cut through the timber
to avoid the longer route by road. A charge of powder had been placed in a snag; the 
fuse had been lighted and the operative had walked away, not imagining any danger 
could occur, for the scene was off the beaten path. As Payne passed the stump the 
powder exploded with fatal result. Three of Payne's companions were stunned ty the 
concussion, though they escaped injury. Payne lived with his family at Sub-Station, 
a point on the interurban midway between Everett and Seattle.

ABERDEEN, Sept. 29- Intelligence has been received of the death of Captain C.H. 
Phelps, a former resident of this palce, but lately of Portland, Ore. The captain 
was one of the old-timers of Aberdeen, having lived here over twenty years. He has
been engaged in towing and similar business on the harbor for the past ten years,

Last Monday night a fatal stabbing affair occured at Index at which J. POZER met 
his death at the hands of another butcher, A.L. Palmer. It seems that Palmer had 
some trouble with a bar room loafer and confidence man by the name of Hall, who 
has been loafing around Index for the past two months. In this trouble which ended
in a fight. Hall was badly worsted. Pozer had been in the meat business since the 
first of September and Palmer had just bought the rival market, yet between the 
two no ill-feeling existed. Hall held a grudge against Palmer and on the night of 
the killing after he and Pozer had been drinking some, they went to the Palmer 
market with the evident intent of giving the proprietor a thrashing. Palmer 
ordered Hall out of his shop and the fight began, Hall soon getting the worst of 
it. At this Pozer interfered and clinched with Palmer, forcing him backward partly
over the counter, where he picked up a small butcher knife. Pozer struck him 
several heavy blows in the face, and despite the fact that Palmer warned him twice
to "let up" or he would "cut him" he struck him again in the mouth knocking out 
two teeth and badly cutting his mouth. On this Palmer used the knife, thrusting 
it into his breast to the hilt. Pozer immediately turned and walked out of the 
building and fell down dead. Cororner Stafford was immediately summoned and an 
inquest held. The jury returned a verdict of self-defense on the part of Palmer. 
Wednesday the preliminary examination was held before Judge Van Vechten and Palmer
was bound over to the superior court and bail fixed at $1000, which the defendent 
quickly secured. The sympathy of the community seems to be very strong with 
Palmer, and indignation ranges high against Hall who has been ordered to leave 
town by the citizens.

Perry P. Prescott, foreman of the logging company's camp at Lochsas was shot and 
killed yesterday after noon by S.G. Smith, a farmer, while the foreman and a small 
crew were removing obstructions placed on the railroad tracks by the farmer. Mr.
Prescott died about twenty minutes later, being removed to the logging camp by his 
companions. Smith left the gun at his home when he came to the city, and it was 
brought in by Sheriff Deering. Smith did not attempt to escape, but walked to 
Hartford, tood the train for Everett, and surrendered himself to Deputies. A few 
moments after the shooting Smith appeared on the scene with a double-barrelled 
shotgun and rifle. The killing was over a right-a-way dispute by the logging company.

The foregoing is the verdict rendered by the duly  empanelled jury at the coroner's 
inquest held yesterday near Lochasloy at the scene of the killing of Prescott. "We 
the jury empanelled to inquiry into the cause of the death of Perry J. Prescott do 
find that Perry J. Prescott came to his death by reason of gunshot wounds inflicted 
by one A.G. Smith and we do further find that said shooting was unlawful."

Snohomish was again shocked Monday afternoon by the news that Mr. Preston had 
dropped dead. He left his store about four o'clock and went home to attend to the 
chores about the place. He was in the barn and apparently playing with a pet dog, 
when he was suddenly taken with heart disease and dropped dead. The dog aroused 
the folks at the house by his peculiar actions and barking, ond on investigations 
they found Mr. Preston lying on the floor of the barn, where he had evedently 
expired. Apparently always in good health, the news came as a great shock to all
who knew him. N.E. Preston was born at Denneysville, Me., Nov. 11, 1848. In 1876 
he was married to Miss B. Belle Miller at Calais, and in 1878 the couple came to 
Washington and settled in Seattle. Four years later they moved to Snohomish where 
for some time Mr. Preston was engaged in the logging business. For five years he 
was with Vestal & Whitfield, and a little over a year ago he opened the store 
which he was operating at the time of his death. Two years ago, he was elected as 
councilman from the first ward, and has been a conscientious official. A wife, two
sons Arthur age 22, and Fred age 16, and a daughter age 13, besides a mother, two 
brothers and a sister mourn his loss; while the community loses a valuable citizen,
and his fraternaties a worthy brother. The funeral will be held tomorrow 
(Saturday) at 2:30 p.m., at the Congregational church, and interment will be in

Arlington, May 23- Andrew Price and his wife, Louisa, Indians, were shot this 
morning about a mile from town, where they, together with a number of other Indians, 
have been camped, by John Price, who is now under arrest. He is the father of Andrew 
Price, the man whom he killed. The dead man and woman were each about 19 years of 
age. The had been married about two years. When found this morning both bodies lay 
just outside the entrance to the tent. Mrs. Price was still alive when the officers 
from Arlington arrived at about 6:30 o'clock. She lived about two hours, but did not 
regain consciousness. According to the story told by Jackson Harvey, one of those 
implicated John Price, himself. Mrs. Price, mother of John who is over 100 years of 
age were in a tent and had been drinking for some time. A quarrel ensued, but there 
was no thought it would result seriously until suddenly John Price attacked Harvey, 
who succeeded in breaking away. Price then at once secured his rifle and began to 
shoot rather promiscuously about the tent. Andrew Price was shot in the left breast 
and right arm and expired shortly after. His wife was shot in the right breast, left 
leg, and abdomen. She also quickly died.  Price will be taken to Everett this 
afternoon, while Jackson Harvey is held as a witness.
