"Mrs. C. A. Davenport Dies"
Oregon City, Or., March 29
 

Mrs. C. A. Davenport, long a resident of this county, and for several years a teacher in the high school at Wheeling, W. Va.,
died at the Old People's Home in Portland, early today. Her husband, who died in 1886 in Buffalo County, Nebraska, was principal
of the Wheeling High School many years.

Mrs. Davenport's maiden name was Anna B. Burnett, and she was married in England. The couple came to this country soon after
and settled in Wheeling. From there they went to Cincinnati, and several years later moved to Nebraska. Soon after her
husband's death Mrs. Davenport came to this city to live with her son, C. A. Davenport, who is employed at the Willamette Pulp &
Paper Company's mill. She was 85 years of age and was apparently in good health until about two weeks ago, when she was stricken
with erysipelas.

Besides her son she is survived by the following grandchildren, all of this city: J. W. Davenport, T. B. Davenport, E. E.
Davenport, Mrs. hazel Dunmire, Blanch Davenport, Beula Davenport, Grace Davenport. The funeral will be held at 2 o'clock
tomorrow at the Methodist Church in this city.
