IDAHO LOSES NOTED PIONEER
 
With the loss of James H. Hawley, former governor and pioneer lawyer of Idaho, 
the people of this state have lost one of their valuable and most admired 
citizens.  His life in Idaho has covered a period of more than 67  years and 
perhaps no man has been identified in as many important events of the state as 
did Governor Hawley.  He was an important figure in the early day when good, 
dependable legal advice was of a premium, and equally as important in later 
years.  During his administration as governor he gave the state a sound and 
constructive administration.  The people of Idaho are going to miss this grand 
man, one of the pioneer builders of Idaho, but perhaps none of Idaho's 
citizens outside of his immediate family will feel the loss more keenly than 
one of Payette's pioneer citizens, W. A. Coughanour, who has been a close and 
almost a life time associate, their early acquaintance and close friendship 
dating back to the gold rush in the Boise Basin in the early sixties. Mr. 
Coughanour received the sad news immediately following his death and left at 
once for Boise.
