Mr. Harris took sick about five days ago and developed pneumonia. He was at Fort Keough at the time of his illness and was taken to the hospital to receive the best of care and medical aid but nothing could save him. His burial will be held Friday morning, March 25th, at the Miles City cemetery.

Freeman, Albert W., Elmer S., all of this community: Hosea A. in British Columbia, one daughter, Mrs. Albert Mierou in Canada, and Mrs. Henry Woodford of Melrose, Wis., at whose home she died, and other relatives and friends who extend their sympathy. LaCross, Frank Paper: Page: 1921-3 It was with grief and surprise that the people of Baker heard of the death of Mr. Frank LaCross last Friday morning at 8:00 o’clock. Mr. LaCross had been in excellent health up to the day of his death and rose as usual Friday morning. He did not follow his daily custom of opening the store but returned to the house and complained slightly of not feeling as well as usual and laid down to rest a while. A little later he was found to have taken part in the Eternal rest. His passing leaves a great void at home and in the business world, his friends were many. A man of sterling character, showing kindness, honesty and thrift in every act and thought, he commanded the love and respect of the whole community, and will be greatly missed. Frank LaCross was born August 23, 1846 thus attaining the age of 74 years, 6 months and 11 days. His birthplace was Quebec, Canada, at the age of nine years he came to the United States with his parents, settling at St. Albans, Vermont. In the early 70's he went westward to Litchfield, Minn., later to Spring Creek where he engaged in the milling business. While there his flour mill was burned down twice; after the second time he moved to Audubon, Minn., and built another flour mill which he sold in 1917. From there he moved his family to Baker and engaged in the grocery business. Out of a modest beginning in a small frame house has grown the present business in a large brick building, a fitting testimonial of his industry and human interest. As he served himself he served his Master; no philanthropic or charitable work was carried on without his willing assistance. Of him may be said a worthy man has gone to rest. He was married at Fargo, N. D., June 25, 1890, to Mrs. Margaret B. Legge. To this union were born five children, Lucy and James who preceded their father to the Beyond, and Chas. F., Lewis B. and Leon LaCross who mourn his loss with their grief stricken mother. Funeral services were held by Rev. Chappell at the Congregational church Saturday afternoon. Messrs. R. F. Smith, L Price, L. Wilson, J. L. Barstow, R. W. Marks and. H. S. Proctor being pallbearers. The remains were accompanied by Lewis and Leon LaCross to Detroit, Minn. where interment was made. The fullest sympathy is extended to the bereaved family. Blaisdell, Clyde Death: 07-30-1918 Page: 1921-4 Information was received this week by the Times that the body of Sergeant Clyde Blaisdell, formerly of Baker, arrived in New York City July 15th from France to be buried in the National Cemetery at Arlington. Mrs. M. Blaisdell, the mother, first requested to have her son rest in the soil he defended with his life but after further consideration gave her consent to have him sent over for burial in Ekalaka, where he spent some time and considered his home. She again changed her mind and gave her consent to have him buried among the national heroes in the Arlington Cemetery. Sergeant. Clyde Blaisdell was a member of Baker Company I, saw service at the Mexican border and went with this company to Fort William Harrison near Helena when the United States declared themselves in war with Germany. In France he was transferred to the 42nd Division composed mostly of Alabama men and saw a great deal of fighting over there. He was killed in battle July 30th, 1918 and it will be just three years since the time of his heroic death. Sergeant Blaisdell was a fine young man liked by all his soldier friends and held in great esteem by his superiors for his faithfulness and love of his country. The message announcing his demise was a sad shock to his mother and brother, but they are now reconciled, as his death was not in vain; the United States won the war through the service of men as Clyde. May he rest in peace in his new place until the bugle call of the last day will make him rise with the other heroes. Baker is proud of its sons who gave their life, for the cause of liberty. Callin, Wells M. Paper: 10-06-1921 Page: 1921-4 Friends of Mrs. C. P. Silvernale and family will regret to learn of the death of Wells M. Callin of Whitefish, Mont., a brakeman on the Great Northern railway. He was thrown from the engine of a freight train near Libby. Callin was standing on the gangway looking back along the train for hotboxes and it is thought that one end of the coal rake which is from 12 to 14 feet long was projecting from the engine and that it was caught by the work of the bridge and that the other end hit Callin, throwing him into the water. Deceased is survived by his wife and three small boys. Mrs. Callin is a daughter of Mrs. Silvernale. Deceased was born in Bowling Green. Ohio, and came to Baker about ten years ago, taking a homestead near Plevna. At that time a brother of Wells Callin, C. H. Callin, was postmaster at Plevna and had a store at that place.

Rolfe, Monte Paper: 08-18-1921 Page: 1921-4 Monte Rolfe, veteran civilian aviator, who has flown in every state in the Union and who was a Baker resident when taking up flying, was killed in a crash last Sunday at Havana. This information was received in a telegram by his mother in St. Paul, Minn., from the president of the Cuban Aerial Transport Company, Rolfe’s employer. Many Baker people will remember Monte Rolfe and his trip by airplane to the Ekalaka fair in 1915, being the first exhibition flight in the Baker territory. Snapp, Luther Death: 07-18-1918 Page: 1921-4 Luther Irl Snapp, son of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Snapp who have been residents of Marshall for many years and recently moved to a farm near Russell, was born near Marshall, September 15, 1892, and grew to young manhood in this city.

Soon after going there he enlisted in the Montana National Guard Infantry and went with his regiment to the Mexican border where he served during the period of trouble with Mexico. Shortly after the regiment returned from the border it was again mustered into service in April, 1917, following the declaration of war against Germany. His regiment was assigned to the 41st (Sunset) Division, as the 163rd Infantry, and after going to Camp Greene, North Carolina, was sent to Camp Mills and sailed for France late in the fall. After arriving in France he was transferred to Company H of the 167th (Alabama) Infantry, in the 42nd (Rainbow) Division, and went into action in the spring of 1918. He was killed in action in the Chatean-Thierry on July 28, 1918, when the 167th and 168th Infantry of General Robert A. Brown's 84th Brigade attacked and captured the village of Sergy and adjoining heights and continued their advance against the Germans, whose lines were forced back to the Vesle river completing a great American victory. The body was buried in the American cemetery near Sergy, from which place it was disinterred to be brought back to this country.

HUBBARD EDWIN C. HUBBARD BYRON L. HUBBARD CHELSIE R. HUBBARD PERRY 0. HUBBARD MRS. FLORENCE OLSON MRS. ROSE BALDWIN Unkown Man Paper Date: 9-21-1921 Page: 1921-6 The body of an unknown man, apparently between 25 and 30 years of age was found last Friday morning at 8:30 o’clock one mile east of Tonquin. The body lay about 50 feet south of the track and was discovered by the section foreman at Tonquin. Coroner Blakemore was notified and accompanied by County Attorney D. R. Young, Sheriff Kelling and Undersheriff___________ brought the remains to Baker and placed them in Price’s undertaking parlor. An autopsy and coroner’s inquest were held. The coroner’s jury consisted of the following persons: J. R. Dickey, foreman; L. Price, E. H. Trandum, C. M. Noyes, G. M. Daugherty, H. S. Proctor and Ed Lake. The jury found as follows: “John Doe, further name unknown, came to his death by gunshot wound inflicted by persons unknown, on night of September 22 or morning of September 23 one mile east of Tonquin.” An examination showed that a 32-caliber ball had entered the lower right side and lodged in the left side of the pelvic bone. There were two scalp wounds over the left temple and minor bruises on left temple and hands. The man was fairly well dressed, but had no money on his person and had no shoes or hat. He was smooth shaven and clean, and five feet four and a half inches tall, and well built. A piece of paper was found in his pocket with the following: Will Kaiber, Great Falls, Box 54. Another paper was found between his feet with the following address: “P. J. Renner, ranch hand for W. R.. Hamilton, Lund Emp. Bureau.” In his pockets were found, a comb, key, pencil and a few other articles. A telegram was sent to Great Falls, but the dead man could not be identified. The funeral was held Monday, Rev. H. H. Deck officiating. Burial took place in the local cemetery. Tranmatron, Mildred Alice Paper Date: 12-08-1921 Page: 1921-7 The whole community was cast in a depth of gloom Sunday afternoon when it was learned that Mrs. E. H. Tranmatron had been ailing several weeks and was taken to the hospital Friday for surgical attention. She died Sunday at about 4:10 P.M. Mildred Alice Wagner, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wagner of Ottumwa, Ia., was born January 14, 1896. She came to Montana from Amidon, N. D., in 1915, where she had been employed in the courthouse. She became deputy clerk of Fallon County after arriving here, and on January 14, 1918, was married to Einar H. Trandum. To this union were born two children, Helen Ann, three years old, and Mildred Loraine, one and a half years old at the time of their mother’s death. She passed away at the Baker hospital after much suffering. The funeral was conducted Tuesday afternoon from the Congregational church, the Eastern Star conducting the ceremonies, the members of the lodge speaking tender eulogies and paying tributes of beautiful flowers. The choir sang several selections in the presence of a crowded congregation of mourners. The remains were taken to Miles City Wednesday morning for burial. All funerals are sad, but this one was much more so than the average. Mrs. Trandum was a young woman of more than ordinary ability and sincerity. She went about her daily work in that unassuming manner that brought her many friends and was the means of building a home of which she and her husband were proud. The future was bright, for youth, ambition and sincerity were employed in a manner that spelled happiness and success. An allwise providence intervened and when this happens, dreams and plans are always shattered. Some one has said that “woman is the last and best of all God’s works.” Mrs. Trandum was one of these, a woman whose steps on earth were as noiseless as an angel's wing. She leaves this earth and her host of innumerable friends with her memory locked in the heart and minds of those she was forced to leave. “She is not lost, but gone before.” Two little girls—too young to understand the significance of a mother who has been called to her reward are left behind. A husband who always appreciated his wife and home, is left to mourn a loss that the future is not likely to repay. Mr. Trandum and the two young children have the sincere sympathy of the entire community. Enos, Son of Barton Paper Date: 12-15-1921 Page: 1921-7 The little son of Mr. and Mrs. Barton Enos who died Saturday in town, was buried at the Medicine Rocks cemetery Sunday, December 11th, Rev. L.

Mr. Hewitt was drowned while fishing in the Umpqua River, near the Pacific coast. Ray has not yet received the particulars of his father’s death. The burial was under the supervision of the Odd Fellows, who were forced to bury the remains immediately after they were recovered. Young, W. T. Paper Date: 12-22-1921 Page: 1921-7 W. T. Young, father of C. B. Young of this place, who was taken to the Hillside hospital at Beach about a week ago, died suddenly Sunday night.

Haynes of Livingston, Mont., and two sons, William Young, of Billings and Charles Young of Ollie, his wife having died last February. Mr. Young’s remains will be shipped to Michigan for burial. The community extends its sincere sympathy to the bereaved relatives.

Paper Date: 12-29-1921 Page: 1921-8 Death, that arch enemy of all mankind, sometimes comes suddenly, and this was the case of County Commissioner Schofield, who passed away this afternoon (Thursday) about 2 o’clock of edema of the lungs, following an attack of angina pectoris. It was only yesterday that Mr. Schofield conversed with friends and informed them that he was not going to die, and his expressions of faith in his ability to combat death were strong. He did not realize the seriousness of his illness which was of a nature that turns suddenly for the worse. His illness was of short duration, beginning immediately after Christmas with acute indigestion. Thus one more citizen of Baker has gone to his reward after a life of usefulness, following a past that was checkered with the various difficulties that beset many men. Deceased was undoubtedly one of the most capable men in Fallon County and his demise will result in sorrow and in sympathy. Mr. Schofield was born in Greene County, Ohio, November 11, 1857, a son of Mr. and Mrs. H. Schofield. He received his education at Baker University and at Williamsburg, Kansas, and began his engineering career as a youth of eighteen years on the Kansas City, Lawrence & Southern railroad. He began as a rodman and later worked successively for the Denver & Rio Grande, the Natchez, Red River & Texas, the Soo Line, the Minneapolis & St. Louis and the Northern Pacific, all before he entered the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul service. He was employed by this company for a number of years as engineer and his job took him to almost all parts of the country. Becoming a permanent settler of Montana, Mr. Schofield located his homestead ten miles west of Ekalaka, erected his pioneer buildings and complied with the requirements of the Government with residence, working at his profession during absent periods from his claim, doing his work for the Milwaukee company at different points. He made his residence upon his farm from 1910 to 1917 and while there was a grain and hog raiser. Mr. Schofield passed his life unmarried, and he and his sister, Mary, made their home in common since the two became permanent settlers of Montana. He was elected county commissioner for Fallon County in 1916 and served this county ever since. After Carter County was cut off from Fallon County he and his sister made their home in Baker. He leaves one brother and two sisters to mourn his loss, namely, William H. Schofield, Jr., of Brooklyn, N. Y., Mrs. Henry T. Wright, of Pueblo, Colo., and Miss Mary L. Schofield of Baker. Mr. Schofield passed through the various degrees, both ways, to high rank in Masonry, and was a member of Kaaba Temple, Ancient Arabic Order Nobles Of the Mystic Shrine, at Davenport, Iowa, and a member of the local lodge of the order of Masons. FUNERAL. OF T. F. SCHOFIELD Paper Date: 01-05-1922 The funeral of County Commissioner T F. Schofield was held Monday from the residence at Baker at 9 o’clock a.m., the services being conducted by Rev. A. E. Landis and the Masonic Lodge. After the services at the residence in Baker. Funeral Director Lloyd Owen, with the hearse, took the remains to Ekalaka for burial. Five automobiles carrying members of the Baker Masonic Lodge accompanied the remains to Ekalaka, at which place the Masons of Ekalaka attended the burial. The services at the grave were conducted by the Baker Masons. A snow storm was raging before Ekalaka was reached and the hearse broke down just as the remains reached Ekalaka. William H. Schofield of Brooklyn, N. Y., attended the funeral of his brother. The following are the Baker people who accompanied the remains to Ekalaka: L. Price, Jay Comstock, C. C. Conser, Louis Granum, R. E. Morris, R. F. Smith, Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton, C. J. Russell, H. E. Hitch, Mr. Dickey Miles Carrington, Ray Sutton, Ray Lyman, John Oliver, R. W. Marks, A. E.
