Early monday morning, Aug 5, this county lost one of its venerable pioneers. The spirit of Edward Constable has passed away. Mr. Constable left Jackson county, Missouri in 1843 crossing the plains by means of an ox-team, his being one of the first wagons to come over the Blue mountains, (eastern Oregon by Le Grand.) Pushing on to this section he settled on a donation claim about 5 miles north east from this city. (West Union) Industrious, frugal, homorable, he was generally well liked and has many friends here who mourn his loss. He has made his home here continuously with the exception of two or three trips to California to visit his children.
His wife died one year and ten months prior to his demise. He leaves eight children four of whom live in this county and four in California. The funeral took place Tuesday from the residence of his son in law and daughter Mr and Mrs. Aaron Malone, the remains being interred in the West Union Cemetery. At his death he was aged 79 years and one month and had been failing for some years.
