of years in farming and sheep rails
ing on Balm fork of Willow creek
where he had one of the best equip
ped ranches in the county. About
six years ago he closed out this
business and removed to Spray
where he again entered merchan-
dising, being owner and manager
of the Spray Mercantile Co. Ow-
ing to failing health be sold this
business last fall and at the time
of his death was not engaged in
any business pursuit.
Mr.. Herren was twice married,
his first wife being Miss Emily j.
Wallace, a native of Andover, N.
Y, and the daughter of a pioneer
settler of this county. To them
were born three children: Claud
NJ, Lnla L., deceased, and Mabel
@. Claud and Mabel are now res
idents of this county. Mrs. Her
rem died in June, 1856, and Mr..
Herren was again married on Jan.
1, 1889, to Miss Addie J. Rash, of
Heppner, and to this union were
born two daughters, Villa L. aud
Eva May, who are left to mourn
the loss of loving husband and
father.
David Herren was a pioneer of
the Heppner country, and was
man highly esteemed by all whose
pleasure it was to know him. He
was a wideawake business man and
alive at all times to the best inter-
ests of this section. He met with
success in his business ventures,
and he also had many disappoint- I
ments, but Though all he Was al
ways the same genial, geod-nstured
Dave, came up smiling and was
ready to buckle in again. 1t was
a pleasure, indeed, to be counted
as one of his friends, for he was
true and faithful, and his demise is
keenly felt by all his old friends
and associates in this community
where he grew up, as it were, with
the country. To his relatives and
friends we extend our sympathy in
this hour Of bereavement. A good J
man is gone. Peace to his ashes
