FARMER FUNERAL HELD SATURDAY
The funeral of the late James Farmer, whose death occurred at his home in Monroe,
Thursday, June 4, after a long and painful illness, was held from Odd Fellows Hall,
Saturday, June 6, and was very largely attended. Rev. P.H. Raymond officiated very
beautifully on this occasion, and was assisted by Miss Lorain Dickenson, who sang to
an accompaniment by Mrs. Lillemoen. The pallbearers were: E.T. Bascom, B.F.
Dickenson, J.R. Crankshaw, J.E. Stirton, John Robbins, F.E. Countryman. The floral
tributes were in wonderful profusion and included emplematic pieces of very nice
design, from the I.O.O.F. and the L.O.O.M. In his personal reference to the deceased,
Mr. Raymond said the following very nice things:
James Farmer was born in Guelph, Canada, on March 10, 1850, but quite early in life
came to live in the United States. In 1872 he was married at Nagoni, Mi, to Elizabeth
Crosby, who with him, has shared the joys and sorrows of life for more than
fifty-three years. Of this union there were ten children in all, eight of whom
survive. It is very fortunate that all are able to be here today with the exception
of the oldest son, who left for Alaska the morning of his father's passing. This son,
however, had been with his father for a number of weeks previously, and not
anticipating that the end was so near was called by his business to go. The family is
comprised of the following, besides Mrs. Farmer; W.C. Farmer, of Seattle, now on way
to Alaska; George Farmer of Kelso, Ralph Farmer of Monroe, Charles Farmer of Monroe,
Mrs. May Sylvia, Cascade Locks, Ore, Mrs Allie Marsolais, Sultan, Mrs J.H. Hart,
Seattle, Mrs J.D. Marsolais, Monroe, and several grandchildren, all present at the
funeral except the first mentioned.
Mr. and Mrs. Farmer came to Washington 36 years ago, nine of which were lived in
Sultan, and the remaining 27 in the little town of Monroe. Mr. Farmer was for years
prominent amoung the business men of the town amoung whom he was honored and
respected for his integrity and honest transactions. A number of years ago he met
with a serious accident, which was undoubtedly the beginning of the long and anxious
time of suffering which ultimately terminatted his long career. His last illness
dates from December last and from then he scarcely knew what it was to be without
intense suffering. Yet through it all he had always manifested the most cheerful
disposition and patient spirit. Those who have cared for him long tell of his utter
unselfishness and his constant thought of others. He was a man who had read much and
thought much and the many who visited him from time to time found him a most
entertaining patient and could not come away from him without edification. To the
more intimate circle of that family and home he was all that could be desired. His
wife with whom he has travelled many miles of life's way, says that perfect harmony
has always existed and now that he has gone she cannot recall anything of him but
what will be a happy memory. Adored by his chidlren; loved by his wife, and honored
by all who knew him, we lay him away today.
My own association with him dates from his accident a number of years ago. But not
until this more recent illness did I come to know him with anything like intimacy.
During my visits we naturally talked of spirtual things and though we did not agree
entirely in all things, we found one common ground of belief in the Fatherhood of
God and the assurance of eternity.
Mr. Farmer was a member of the Odd Fellows order, an order in which he took the most
lively interest; also the Grange.
Card of Thanks
We wish to express our sincere appreciation and gratitude to the friends and
neighbors for the kindness and sympathy shown us in the death of our husband
and father.

FATHER A RESIDENT OF EVERETT KNOWN HERE
Following Heavy Meal, Feller Waded in Waist Deep Lost Control
Lewis William Feller was accidentally drowned in the Skykomish river at 4 o'clock
Sunday afternoon at a place across the road from the farm where he has been living
for two years with his brother Chester Feller near the Monroe reformatory. He was 26
years of age and the son of E.B. Feller 2740 Baker ave., Everett. He had eaten a
heavy dinner about 3 o'clock and had gone with his 14 year old niece and several
other youngsters, none of whom were able to swim, to bathe in the river. Feller was
an excellent swimmer, having become expert during service in the navy. He had waded
into the water waist deep when he called for held and began struggling apparently
cramping. His struggles took him into deeper water further out in the stream, and he
sank. His brother and others were summoned from the house by his shouts and his
brother, who is unable to swim waded so far out into the current that the water
threatened to take him under also. Securing a boat, the rescuers located the body on
the bottom in water about 12 feet deep. Half an hour after the young man had sunk,
the body was recovered, but is was too late for efforts at resuscitation to prove
effective.
The body was taken to the undertaking establishment of E.E. Purdy & Sons at
Snohomish, where the funeral will take place Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock, the
Rev. R. Bushon of Monroe officiating.
The young man is survived by his father E.H. Feller of Everett, his brother, Chester
Feller of Monroe, a brother, Mark II Feller of Kenewick, and a sister, Mrs. Mable
Finke of Monroe. He was unmarried. Lewis Feller served two years and ten months in
the Navy during the war, on the warship Minnesota. He saw some of the most active
service that was allotted to any man aboard a man-of-war, crossing the Atlantic
ocean thirteen times when the worst of the submarine warfare was in. For 17 years he
has been a resident of Snohomish county, residing at the Feller farm near Monroe,
formerly that of his father The father was with Mr. and Mrs. E.T. White and Mrs.
Demaiay, sister-in-law of Mrs. White on a motor trip to Priest Point Sunday and was
met on his return home by the party of Monroe friends who brought news of the son's
death. The entire number, all of whom are friends of the young man drowned, huried
immediately to the Monroe farm arriving soon after the body was recovered. Coroner
N.B. Challacombe investigated the drowning Sunday evening.

Monday's west bound accommodation on the Great Northern, when crossing the bridge
east of Sultan last Monday morning, ran into a couple of millmen "Jack" Fleming and
Henry Watts, employees of the Wallace Lumber Co. at Wallace. Fleming was injured so
badly that he died whle en route to the Everett hospital his arm being cut from the
body, leg broken and a bad wound on the head. Watts was more fortunate as he was
sitting on the guard rail and escaped with nothing worse than a broken leg. It is
doubful that the train struck him at all, the assumption being that he jumped off the
bridge to the ground below, a drop of about sixteen feet. Both men had spent Sunday
and Sunday night in Sultan and started back drunk to go to work, sometime in the
early morning, with the above result. The train brought them down to Everett where
Dr. Stafford, county coroner, held an investigation and decided that an inquest was
unnecessary as the circumstance didn't warrant it. Watts is at present in the
hospital at Everett.

Jas. Foley, a Snohomish county pioneer, who has been a county charge bedridden with
paralysis for about 28 years, died at the county hospital on Wednesday. The Tribune
report that he took part in the Indian wars of the early days is denied by pioneers
who were intimately acquainted with him. W. Whitfield worked with him in the Puget
Mill Co's camp on Ebey slough in 1866, and says Foley deserted from the British army
at Fredrickton, N.B. and joined the federal army as drillmaster during the early part
of the rebellion. After his discharge he came to San Francisco and thence to the
Sound.

ERECT MEMORIAL TO LOCAL DOCTOR
A permanent memorial to Dr. E.C. FOLSOM, the first physician to locate in Snohomish
and the second to practice medicine in Snohomish County, will be erected, the
Snohomish County Medical association announced Wednesday. Dr. FOLSOM is buried in
the G.A.R. cemetery here. Dr. FOLSOM establised his profession in Snohomish in 1872.
A monument to Dr. FOLSOM has already been erected and the memorial will be added.
(From "Carroll from Snohomish" - History of Skagit and Snohomish Counties 1906 gives
his Biographical Sketch on p 844. This biography is a fascinating story about what is
known of Dr. FOLSOM and is well worth reading. He was connected with the Mexican War
in its closing days. He was 7 yrs service in the Army at CA & AZ. He saw service with
the govt. secret service relating to San Francisco & Panama. Indeed he was in service
during the Civil War as a medical inspector. He came to Snohomish in Nov 1872. He was
a nephew of Salmon P. Chase, U.S. Senator from Ohio, a member of Lincoln's cabinet and
later Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. He d. about 1844 according to this
Bio and was buried by the Masonic fraternity. There is much more to know about this
illustrious doctor who contributed so much to humanity wherever he resided. It is no
wonder that Eldridge Morse wrote of his life, for it is because of Morse that we are
able to know some things about this wonderful man, and pioneer physician. Dr. FOLSOM
was a graduate of Phillps-Exeter Academy in New Hampshire, and he studied at Harvard
university where he contacted Professor Louis Aggasiz, the famous Swiss naturalist,
inspiring FOLSOM into scientific research)

Gordon W. Frazier was born at Matapedia, Canada East, Providence of Quebec March 8,
1875, so had just passed his 21st birthday. Gordon's father died when he was very
young, and his home has always been with his grandmother, Mrs. England. Just before
his grand parents removed to this city in 1885, his mother married again and he has
not seen her for several years, but the words "my mother" were upon his lips as the
end drew near. Gordon was a gifted young man in many and was as popular as he was
gifted. He was a good student when in public schools, here, and later, after he had
entered the University, made an excellent record as a student. The loving devotion of
his home friends has been beautiful to see. Grandmother and aunts, and cousins have
revolved about him these weeks past, and all that loving care could do has been done.

The men at Hinckley's stable were shocked last night to hear a pistol shot at Hans
Frederickson's home across the street. The children at once began to make outcry, and
running across the road they found Mr. Frederickson with a smoking revolver of 38
calibre in his had, and blood gushing from a wound just above his left eye. Dr.
Limerick was sent for at once. When he came the man was dead. In fact he must have
died instantly as the ball crashed through the brain and came out the back of his
head. Mrs. Frederickson was overcome by grief but told this story of the suicide.
Her husband was preparing to go out to his father's place, and went into the front
room and shaved. They had some words about some domestic affair and when he had
shaved he turne dto her and said "I guess I have made you trougble enough" and then
she heard the report of the revolver and he fell heavily upon the floor.
Hans Edeward Frederickson was about 33 years of age. He was a son of H.E. Fredericson
who owns a ranch on the Park Place road and a brother of Mrs. Hoems and Mrs.
Cedargreen who live in the same neighborhood. For about three years he was in the
grocery busines son Lake street, Lake Union, Seattle. When the panic struck Seattle
he was badly in debt., and to extricate himself, traded his store for a Thurston
county ranch. The ranch was mortgaged and the mortgage came due and he lost it.
