MT. BROOK MISSES ELWIN WELDON

Mt. Brook, Aug. 8 -- By the death of Elwin Weldon the Mt. Brook district lost one of its most upright and influential citizens. By hard work and sound judgment he had developed one of the best ranches in the White Salmon valley.
He had a splendid herd of beef cattle and knew exactly how to handle it. In him was exemplified the old saying, "The eye of the master fattens his cattle."
The Weldon garden was probably the best and largest in the mountain district and he took great pride and pleasure in it.
He was an active and enthusiastic community worker and especially interested in anything to help the young people. A dynamo of energy, he was a strong support in any enterprise. For several terms he was president of our community club and made a fine record.
As a successful farmer, an enterprising and square dealing citizen, and a good neighbor, Mountain Brook will miss Elwin Weldon.
