Mr.. and Mrs. Byron Hunter
and family are packing their
household goods preparatory to
moving to Walla Walla, Wash,
to make their home. They are
prominent people in this city
and have made many friends
here, who deeply regret their de-
cision to go elsewhere to reside.
They will be accompanied by
Mrs. Handsaker, who goes to
Walla Walla to spend the sum-
mer with her parents. Rev.
Handsaker will leave later for
that place, having resigned his
pastorate in this city, in the
hope that the change will bene-
fit his health, which has been
very poor. The departure Of
these two respected and highly
esteemed families will be keen
ly felt in Corvallis, but all join
in wishing them God speed and
all success in their new homes.
Last Sunday afternoon, while

they had gone to attend church,
Mr.. and Mrs. r. L. Whitehead

On passing Virgil Walters auto
the horse became frightened and
ran away. throwing Mr.. and'Mrs.
Whitehead to the ground and
smashing the buggy. Mr.. White
head is quite severely bruised !
about the head and shoulders,
but it is hoped nothing serious
will result, and Mrs. Whitehead
received the usual bruises al
though she was but slightly in
jured. The buggy is a complete
ruin. and the owners declare
they will sell the horse the first
chance they get, as they have no
desire to drive the animal again.
They were picked upand brought
to Corvallis by parties who were
passing at the time of the acci-
dent. Both are improving, and
it is hoped they will soon recov-
er.
