"Glenwood"

     Mrs. Dymond of Fulda, well known here, died Friday evening and was interred in Glenwood cemetery Monday. Emma E. Austin was born at East Pembrooke, Gennessee Co., N.Y. Aug. 8, 1842 and died Apr. 6, 1912. She was married to Chester Dymond of the same place, Jan. 12, 1861. they moved to Iowa in 1867 and from there to Oregon in 1878. They came to Klickitat Co. in 1880 where Mr, Dymond died June 10, 1904. To this union were born two sons and one daughter. The daughter, Mrs. Pearl M. Dymond Binford, died Dec. 4, 1900. The two sons, Bert C. and Gay A., live in the old homestead in Camas Prairie near Fulda. Mrs. Dymond leaves three brothers and one sister, Wm. H. Austin, of Spencer, Iowa; Robt. F. Austin of Spokane, Wash., James B. Austin of Buffalo, N.Y., and Mrs. Phoebe M. Butler, of North Pembroke, N.Y. Mr. and Mrs. Dymond well deserve to be called pioneers, and hence had qualities befitting the brave and true. To know your neighbor is to neighbor with them. The writer has known Mr. and Mrs. Dymond since 1894, and associated with them and their neighbors, and never heard a criticism against them. Mrs. Dymond was the Fulda postmistress for years and enjoyed the reputation of being the most careful and painsªtaking in the entire district. May we emulate the good qualities that still live in our memories.
