EARLY RESIDENT OF TOBACCO

EUREKA, Nov. 25.-Mrs Mary Jans
Davis died at her home in Eureka or
Thursday afternoon, November ~, a
the age of 81 years. Death came aftel
week of sickness following "a fal
down some steps. The injuries did no
seem to be severe, but complication!
developed from which she could no
recover.
Mrs. Davis was an early settler II

%. 1s4s In 1874 she immigrated to th'
limited States to Join brothers and SIS.

land Ohio, she became a graduate

Mrs. Davis. then Mary Jane Maxwell
and William Davis had been sweet
hearts in Ireland She took up home
stead claim north of Eureka, close botf
to the Canadian line and to home
stead claim already held by William
Davis. The two old sweethearts were
married shortly after, Within the year
and lived together on the ranch nine
miles north of Eureka until Mr. Davis
death. July 4. 1922 There were no chill
dren Mrs. Davis moved into Eureka
in 1924 and has resided here since.
Funeral services, at 2 o'clock on
Monday were held at the home in Eu-
reka, and were conducted by the Rev
Mr.. Richard Price. rector of the Epis-
copal church Burial was in Tobacco
Valley cemetery at Eureka. The near
est surviving relatives are three nieces,
one, Mrs. Effie Johnston, lives in Spo-
kane; two others. sisters OF Mrs.
Johnston, live in the East.
Mr.. w. v. Kuchan, who before Mrs.
Davis death had acted in the capacity
of legal adviser to her, says that no
will has yet been found though one
is said to be in existence. ~
In connection with the coming of
this early settler to Lincoln county a
bit of history of the region is worth
noting. Mrs. Davis came to the To-
bacco Plains country in 1904 the next
year after the Great Northern trains
began running through Eureka. Up
to the, time of the railroads coming
mail to Eureka was brought in by pack
train from Kahspell The pack trip
required two and half to three days
to make, when weather conditions
were favorable; at other times two and
a half to three weeks Mr.. Davis had
gotten his mail from a little store and
postoffice kept by Leonard Brothers
on the SO Ranch. Through this store
and by pack train had come the letters
from his old sweetheart, the letters
which made the arrangements for her
coming. At that time the name Eu-
reka was not used. The station was
known first as Flae Station and then
as Deweyville; finally as Eureka.
