DEATH OF WILLIAM FIELD.
One of Our Brave Dal1es Boys Succunbs
to the Fever at Manila.

When our brave soldier boys lett The
Dalles to fight tor their country, some
how we could not realize that when the
homeward march was begun there must
of necessity be soAe vacant places along
the line. AS news came to US from the
battle field and so few losses were re-
ported our hopes for their sale return
grew brighter still. However, since the
dispatches have been telling of the
ravages from fever among the troops at
Manila and the names of Walter Dlckey
and William Field were among the list
of the very i'll, we began to grow anxious.
Later news reported that DIckeY was
improving, but dispatch from Wash
ington Tuesday mentioned among the
list of the dead William Field, which
caused feeling of sadness among his
friends in this city, as well as those who
knew him ouiy as one who had volun-
teered in defense of his country.
"Will,' as ne was familiarly known,
was 20 years of age, and had lived
in The Dalles for a number of years,
leaving here to attend Vashon college,
where he graduated. He afterward re-
turned to this city, and when the call
was made for troops enlisted in Com
pany g., aud was on detained service in
the commissary department when Com
pany L left Portland. Later Mr.. j. P.
Lucas received word from him saying
that he had joined the hospital corps,
and had nursed Walter Dickey through
his sickness.
Many OF his friends are inclined to
hope it is not Will whose death is men
toned, but someone by the same name.
However, there is little doubt, as Cap
tain Wells in writing from there re-
Gently to Mrs. Jones, president of the
Portland Emergency Corps, spoke Of his
serious illness.
