noon, last Thursday, were held from the residence, Sunday, in charge of Rev.

girl she moved, with her parents, to Hillsdale County, where she was married 
on November 17, 1864, to Mr. Selleck.  Shortly afterward they located in Ohio, 
remaining there until 1878 when they came to Portland.

sisters, Mrs. Amy Haner, of Highland Park, and Mrs. Sarah Marsh, of Redlands, 
California.
