Methodist Sunday School Outing

Last Saturday 100 parents. child.
rem, members and friends of the
Methodist Sunday school spent a
pleasant and profitable day in visit
ing the place where Marcus Whit
man, his wife and thirteen others
were massacred. Says one Of the
party:
"As we looked tenderly and feel.
ingly upon the stately shaft which
has been erected to the memory Of
these devoted martyrs, and as We
gathered around the mausoleum
which contains their remains, our
minds were carried back to the time
72 years ago when their lives were
sacrificed upon a soil they had learn
ed to love. All were convinced
that Marcus Whitman looked to the
Importance Of securing Oregon as
an American possession, and that
to him more than any other one
man Is due the fact that we are now
living under the Stars and Stripes
here in Oregon rather than under
the banner Of st. George"
The beautiful City Park Of Walln
Walla was a fitting place for the
enjoyment Of the splendid dinner
which had been provided.
The school desires to say that It
feels indebted and deeply grateful
TO Mrs. r. G, Sailing. Marvin Price
and Worth Watts for the use Of
their cars in the absence Of other
cars which did not arrive.
