Copelands Buy Yards

The Copeland Lumber company
which recently disposed of it's prop
erty and business at Meridian as we'll
as Its branch lumber yards at Star,
Kuna and McDermott to the Boise
payette Lumber company Of Boise,
has purchased string of six lumber
yards In Montana and will take pos
session OF the same about January 15,
1916 The yards are located at Boze-
man, Salesyille, Amsterdam, Man

were owned by the Flint-Lynn COM
Dany.
1t Is understood that negotiations
are under way for the purchase by
the Copelands of lumber yards at
two other Montana points, but these
deals are as yet not definitely closed.
The contract for the six yards above
mentioned was made during the re-
cent trip which L. A. Copeland of
Meridian and his father, Joseph Cope
land, made to Montana following the
sale of their Idaho properties.
representatives of the Boise-Pay-
ette Lumber company, working with
Il. A, Copeland and his brother, j. w.
Copeland, and the local manager,
commenced invoicing the stock of the
Kuna lumber yard Saturday and the
same work commenced at the Merid-
ian yard Monday 1t is anticipated
that the invoicing will be finished
and the books figured up Saturday
Of this week. The book accounts are
retained by the Copeland company
and H. A. Copeland will be here un-
I'll january l, attending the collec-
4ions.
1t is understood to be the inten-
tion OF the Copelands to take the
local managers of their various yards
to Montana with them if the latter
desire to make the change. These
managers include F. II. B. Richards
of Star, L. r. Linn of Meridian and
III. H. Grother of Kuna Mr.. Grother
and Mr. Linn, however, have already
entered the employ of the Boise-Pay-
cite concern.

state 1T has extensive wholesale and
retail lumber interests. 1t includes
Joseph Copeland of Portland, his
sons. l.. A. Copeland and j. w. Cope
land, and son-in-law. w. J. Nc
Cready
The company will make Bozeman
the headquarters of it's Montana busi-
ness and it is there that L. A. Cope
land who has resided in Meridian
for several years while in charge of
the lumber yards in the Boise valley,
will make his home after January
15
Iii speaking of leaving here Mr..
Copeland stated that = his company
had enjoyed an excellent business in
Idaho, and that especially in Meri-
tiian the business had shown sub
stantial gain every year. This fall
there has been more building activity
in this vicinity, with a consequent
growth of sales, than ever before.
1t Is through no lack of faith in
the future of the town or country
that we are leaving" Mr.. Copeland
emphasized. 1T is simply business
change that takes us to new loca-
cation and a larger field. l regret
very much leaving Meridian"

DEATH OF REV. j. l. MCCOY.

fLoS ANGELES TRIBUNE, FEB. 23.
Rev. J. L. Mccoy, pastor of the
Second Baptist church, died yester-
day at his residence, No. 1882 East
Fifteenth street. Since coming to
Southern California from Virginia.
where he was born 81 years ago,
Rev. Mccoy had taken prominent
part in the church life of this
section. During the past seven
years he was pastor of the Second
Baptist church, which, with rare
executive ability, he cleared of debt.
He was able, while aided in lifting
the load of Indebtedness from his
pastorate, to devote an unusual
amount of time to religious iabors,
owing to his Inauguration of bust
ness-iike and efficient methods of
handling details. At the Baptist
convention recently held at Fresno
DR.. Mccoy was elected president Of
the organization. He was also the
head of the association of ministers
who are planning to build home
for the aged at Abba. In this idea
he was enthusiastic.
