DEATH OF HARRY ALLEN.
Word was received here Monday of the death of Harry L. Allen that morning at Spokane, the result of an operation that he had undergone Tuesday of last week. His wife and son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Jas. H. Porter, were with him when he passed away. Some four or, five weeks ago Mr. Allen, who had been suffering for months from some ailment that physicians seemed unable to diagnose, went to Spokane for medical treatment. He did not improve, and an operation was decided to be necessary. A portion of one lung, upon which a long abcess had formed, was removed. He rallied from the effects of the operation, and the first reports from his bed side were encouraging, but his vitality had been sapped by the inroads of disease and Monday morning he succumbed.
The deceased was one of the pioneers of northern Okanogan county coming west from South Dakota some 23 years ago, and first locating at Conconully. From thee he moved to Loomis where he resided until some five years ago, when he took up a homestead near Wanicut Lake. He followed freighting in the earlier days before the railroad was built into the country, and was well known throughout the central part of the county.
Mr. Allen was born in Minnesota and moved to the Dakotas in early life, coming to Washington from that state. He had reached the age of 50 years. He was an indulgent husband and father, a kind, sympathetic and accommodating neighbor, a genial, in industrious and law abiding citizen, and his untimely death is regretted and deeply deplored by a large circle of old friends and acquaintances. The remains arrived in Oroville Wednesday evening, and the funeral took place at Loomis Thursday. He was buried beside two of his children who had preceded him to that bourne from which no traveler returns.
