Mrs. Anna Walters, Pioneer, Called By Death
The death of Mrs. Anna Wallters of Spring Coulee occurred Tuesday afternoon at the home of her sister, Mrs. Dan Gamble, at Brewster. Mrs. Walters died from the effects of cancer, from which she had been suffering a long time. Five weeks ago she was removed to her sister's home.
Mrs. Walters was one of the pioneers of the Okanogan country, having come here in 1886 with her parents. Shortly after moving to this country they settled on the Spring Coulee ranch which has ever since been her home with the exception of a short period spent at Ashcroft, B. C. The parents, Mrs. and Mrs. Munson, are both dead and were buried in the Clover cemetery, where Mrs. Walters was also laid away Wednesday.
Deceased was born in Bishop, California, January 9, 1870. She came from Maine ancestry and was a relative of Longfellow, the poet. Her surviving relatives are Mrs. Joe Hill of Spokane and Mrs. Dan Gamble of Brewster, sisters; Willard Munson of California, Byron and Louis Munson of Okanogan, and Myron Munson of Alberta, brothers.
Funeral services were conducted at the Yarwood undertaking parlors in this city Wednesday afternoon under the auspices of the Christian Science church, of which organization Mrs. Walters was a member.
