iag ayr one-time resident of Olym-
pia: ~. ."e.. ....,
1.-THE life of the late w. H. Mitchell
covered the full period of growth of
the Oregon Country from his arrival
in 1853 to his retirement from active
business in 1895. He was of the old
school, of which integrity is the foun-
dalton stone. and there is tablet to
him in the name of Mitchell on
something on almost every farm in
this great section"
The passing of Mr.. Mitchell brings
to the minds of our old settlers the
early days of olympia where he spent
the most of his active business life.
The name of MITCHELL" as. men,
toned by the Oregonisn, evidently
refers to the wagons, farming ma
chinery and autos bearing that name,
but they were not the invention nor
manufactured by our w. H. Mitchell.
although after his fathers death he
has been connected steadily with the
firm of Mitchell, Lewis & Staver Co.,
whose home office and factory is in
the East.
In the early days 1t was Mitchell
& Lewis, when w. H. Nit hell, the
son, lived in Olympia and had no con.
nection with the manufacture of the
Mitchell wagons and farming ma
chinery by his father in the East. On
the death of his father he became
associated with the Arm, which was
then the Mitchell. Lewis & Staver
Co.. their western branch being To-
Gated at Portland. Oregon, where the
business has since been conducted
by w. H. Mitchell and his son Harry,
who is manager OF that branch.
Ward 4 Mitchell.
After my arrival in Olympia on
October 3, 1877. my first acquain-
lance with Mr.. Mitchell was when he
end our good old pioneer, Ira Ward,
conducted sawmill under the firm
name of Ward & Mitchell at the
upper falls in Tumwater, and their
lumber yard was located near the
present site in Olympia of the Olym-
pia Door Company's plant. Old set
tiers who are still alive will remem-
Der these two old pioneer lumber
merchants, and John Marshall who.
with his steady. plodding team.
hauled their lumber down from Tum-
water to their lumber yard In Olym-
pia.
And these same old settlers will
know If I am relating these circum-
stances correctly or not: 1t is easy
to make mistakes when one has to
depend on memory as we 60 rafting

recording for future reference the
hurried transactions of the bygone
days. As look backward to old

q have been in very bad condition and couldn't get about, had hard pains in my feet and limbs, but I'm now able to get about on crutches, since taking onfy two bottles of Dreco, and I'm sure proud of it." says MT. W. R. Morrison, the we'll known farmer of Letohatchie, Ala. MT. Morrison is prominent as a church going man, and is a deacon in the Bap- tist church. s-s,sss
 After I had taken three doses of Dreco I began to feel the effects. It eased my stomach, and I got a good nights sleep, something hadn't had in many night. My bowels began to get regular; kidneys got active; that vile taste in my mouth disappeared, and the pains in my limbs and feet eased up. am 62 years old, and I have never seen any medicine to equal Dreco. It truly is a wonder, and I praise it and wish the manufacturers every success, which they surely deserve"
 Dreco relieves rheumatism, clears the impurities from the blood. regulates the bowels, overcomes constipation, acts on the liver, and is very fine for skin dis eases, such as eczema, scurvy, boils and pimples Pleasant to take and good for old and young.
