Absalom B. FAULCONER

Our Sugar Grove correspondent furnishes us these facts of a gentleman whose death occurred some weeks since, and who was well-known to many of our older readers: Absalom B. FAULCONER died Jan. 20, 1899, at Sheridan, Oregon, aged 82 years, 7 months and 10 days, of the grip, after a lingering illness. Deceased was raised in lincoln county on the farm now occupied by J.W. TICE, near Sand Run church. He was a brother-in-law of Squire M.H. BROWN, of the Sugar Grove vicinity, and also a brother of Dr. C.B. FAULCONER and Mrs. Arthusa WYATT, of Montgomery City. He was married twice, the first time to miss Mary A. GRAVES, of Pitts, Warren county, in the 30's. He emigrated to Oregon in 1846, and two years later two younger brothers followed him and all, we understand, made comfortable fortunes. The first wife of deceased died in 1854 and he afterwards married an Oregon lady.
