PIONEER WOMAN DIES

Mrs. Eleanor Dimick Succumbs to a Short Illness

Mrs. Eleanor Dimick, a pioneer of Oregon, died shortly before 12 o’clock 
Saturday night at her home 155 Tenth street, corner Morrison. She had been ill 
about a week, and it was thought she would recover up to a short time before 
she passed away. All her living chidren were at her bedside at the time of her 
death.

Mrs. Dimick was bron in Lyons, N.Y., and was 82 years old. When a girl she 
moved with her parents to Northern Ohio and thence to Illinois, where she was 
married to M.H. Dimick. In 1862 she and her husband crossed the plains, making 
their home in Salem until 1868, when they moved to Portland, where she had 
since lived.

Mrs. Dimick was a pioneer, first in the Middle States and then in Oregon, and 
while she was known and loved by a wide circle of Portland friends, it was in 
the quiet of her own home she preferred to live, and her death was as peaceful 
as had been her long life.

Her husband, M.H. Dimick, died ten years ago and she is survived by five of 
her eight children - Mrs. Mary D. Meserve, Adelia A., Milo M., M.E. and Miss 
Alpha A. Dimick, and one grandson, M.E., Jr., all of Portland. The funeral 
will take place tomorrow afternoon from her late home 155 Morrison street, and 
the services will be conducted by Rev. Thomas L. Eliot, of the Unitarian 
Church.
