Mrs. John Haller, aged rs years,
who died at the home of her son, II.
W. Haller, of Fruita, September 30,
1913, was for the last 10 years one
of Fruitvale's most honored citizens,
coming here from Nebraska to seek
relief from the tedious attacks of
asthma. Mrs. Haller became also
the victim of paralysis and dropsy.
The devotion of her husband during
all these years while they lived alone
among US. makes us have faith that
the age of chivalry is not outlived.
During last summer, Mrs. II. w. Hal
Ter left her home in Fruita to minis
ter to them. She persuaded both to
make her home in Fruita theirs,
where the best care and medical at
tention was given till the Angel of
Death took Grandma home to her
rich reward. Six stalwart sons with
their families mourn for her. II. w.
Haller, Frank Haller, ]. ]. Haller of
Fruita and three in Nebraska. The
funeral services were conducted by
Rev. Blodgett of the Congregational
church. Mrs. Haller's family con-
sisted of eight sons, the two eldest
having died in infancy. One son,
Louis, who came from Litchfield,
Neb., attended and took back with
him his father, Mr.. John Haller for
visit. Among those from Fruitvale
who attended the funeral were: E.
ormsby and family, Grandma Schev-
ening, Charles Schoening and wife,
j. Jens, II. Jens, &. ID. yoss, c. l..
Shedd and their families. Passing
the empty home, the well kept gar
den with ripe grapes, now in charge
of L. l.. Cole, We feel richer because
this aged couple lived among us.
A year ago when the body of a wo-
man was washed ashore across from
the home of Mrs John Haller, who SO
lately was gathered home. Mrs. Hal
Ter remarked, "if we had known this
woman she need not have drowned
because of want, for we would have
kept her"
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Moore, our
latest married couple, have the very
warmest wishes of all in Fruitvale
and Pear Park for a long life of
prosperity and happiness, as Miss
Pearl Gimple-Mrs. Moore-links
our two school districts, making
consolidation devoutly hoped for by
us in the past, reality now.
Willis Russell and Stanley Harri-
son are kept very busy at the plat
form, checking car lots of apples and
sugar beets.
Some one borrowed, without leave,
a potatoe digger from Cactus ranch.
1t may be the same party who a year
ago swiped the premium potatoes Mr..
Shugar had at the county fair. We
hope he will return value received
to Messrs. Shugar and Henderson
and clear his conscispce,
Mr.. Rackly, a good looking bache-
lor, is peddling some fine sweet po-
tatoes from his ranch on the river
southeast of the Indian school.
Mrs. Hambright sells her dressed
chickens at 27 1-2 cents per pound.
Adolph Shubert's wagon lies upset |
where 1t rolled off the crossing when |
the train killed his team Saturday, |
tearing them from the wagon. Mr..
Shubert is suffering from the shock,
though not seriously hurt. The evil
dence of all spectators is that no
warning was given by the engineer |
of the train. The team belonged to |
d. B. Wright and were valued at |
$3.50.
Hambright and Kettell are
through shipping winesaps. Extra
fancy and fancy, with only one or
two standards in big load, while
many have more of the latter than
any other, in spite of six sprayings.
Highland Park seems to be a good
apple country.
