Portland, Ore. Nov. 81. - To be
older than the United States govern
ment, to have been a toddling infant
when Washington was inaugurated
president in the 18th century, and to
walk erect in the full possession of
her faculties under Roosevelt's in the
goth century. has been the good for
tune of Mrs. Mary Ramsay Woods.
of H~illsboro. Ore, who is proDabiy
the oldest white in the
world.
In her 18th year Mrs. Woods is
still quite active. Daily she walks
about the garden of her daughters
home and sits upon the porch in
sunny weather. She keeps well post
ed on events of the day and maintains
a live interest in politics.
Mrs. Woods was born May 20, 1887,
at Knoxville. Tenn, two years before
the United States constitution went
into effect. Her maiden name was
Ramsey and her father burned the
brick and built the first brick struv-
ture in Knoxville. She was seven
years old when Tennessee was adj
mitted as a state, and IS when Lewis
and Clark made their famous journey
to the coast.
At an early age Mary Ramsey mar
