Died, at her home down the river, Sunday, Feb. 21, 1892. Miss Nannie Fields. She was the daughter of Henry Carsner
and Jincy (Fields) Carsner.

The deceased came to the John Day Valley with her husband Harvey Fields in mining days when settlements were few.

Industry and honesty of purpose characterized her life work until scourged by afflictions and the loss of her mind.

She, all that is mortal--rests in the cemetery near the old Gundlach place on the river.
