DEATH OF MAYOR
Il. B. NELSON
At His Home In Weston, Oregon,
May %.
He Was One of the City's Most Es.
teemed Citizens.

Weston, Oregon, Leader.
Mr.. II. b. Nelson, Mayor OF Weston
and manager OF its principal industry,
the brickya-d, passed away Saturday
evening, May %, 1903, at his residence
on Water street. He sank quietly into
the final sleep, surrounded by his
family. Death was due to sudden
heart trouble, following acute nephritis.
Mr.. Nelson was born in Bellefon-
taine, Ohio, September 9, 1913. He
came West as far as Kansas in 1869,
and was married to Miss Mary o.
Clark in lola, Kansas, February y,
1873. Returning to Ohio, he remained
there two years, and then came to the
coast. residing two years in California.
He became an Oregonian by adoption
March %, 1879, establishing the brick
business at Weston which he had since
so ably and successfully conducted,
until it has grown into one OF the
largest plants in the State.
Mr.. Nelson served as Mayor OF Wes-
ton from January 1, 1888, to January
/, 1892, and was prevailed upon to ac-
cept the position again last December.
As in all else, he was faithful in his
trust to the public-a strong and able
citizen. In fact, his distinguishing
characteristics were his intelligent men,
tai grasp OF anything he undertook,
and the energy with which he carried
it out. He was a successful man OF
affairs, for he knew his business from
A to Il; a man OF much prominence in
fraternal circles as a member OF the
Knights OF Pythias and A. o. U. W.,
because the beautiful principles OF
fraternity were not meaningless to him;
beloved and honored in his household,
because home and family were en-
lshrined in his heart. 1t is not too
much to say that II. B. Nelson was
Weston's strongest, most useful, active
and progressive citizen, and it was
with a sense OF public as we'll as
personal loss that friends saw his body
hidden from mortal view forever. He
was a staunch Republican, taking an
active part in the political affairs OF
the county and State.
Mr.. Nelson left in sorrow his wife;
one daughter, Mrs. V. II. Chastain, OF
Milton, Oregon; and one son, Clark
E. Nelson, OF Weston, who succeeds
him in the management Of the brick
yard. He is also survived by four
sisters and two brothers, residing in
the Eastern States.
The obsequies were held Sunday aft
ernoon, being conducted by j. w.
Cookery, funeral director from Walla
Walla. The casket was covered with
floral tributes and adorned with
Pythian emblems in richly chased
silver. Services were held at the house
by Rev. w. E. Potwine, rector Of the
Church OF the Redeemer, Pendleton,
and appropriate hymns we're sung. At
the grave the solemn ritualistic services
OF the Pythian order were said by Nor
val E. Bradley, Prelate.
The funeral was very largely attended.
Many lodge brethren we're in the pro-
cession, the A. o. U. w. accompany
ing the X. OF p. as an escort OF honor.
