OBITUARY:
W. H. H. Dodge Prominent Horticulturist Dead.
William H. H. Dodge, pioneer celery grower of the Willamette valley, died at his home near the Fairgrounds, early Tuesday morning during his sleep. There being no near relatives, the deceased left a letter, written in 1913 to A. M. Clough, associated with Webb, funeral directors, arranging for the disposal of his body and estate. His entire estate was bequeathed to his aged housekeeper who has been with him for many years. Mr. Dodge was an outstanding authority on celery and was actively engaged in horticulture until his sudden death. He had called Monday at the office of his physician, Dr. J. H. Garnjobst, and seemed in apparent good health before he was found dead Tuesday morning.
Funeral services will be held today at Webb's parlors, conducted by Rev. Acheson and his fraternal order, IOOF. Burial will be in the fraternal cemetery.
