FALLENHEROOF
SCOUT PARTY
TOPPENISH, Wash., June 29 (by
Associated Press).—A monument in
memory of Captain A. J. Hembree,
who fell when his scouting party wras
ambushed on the morning of April 10,
1856, by hostile Indians on a moun
tain side south of where the city of
^oppenish now stands, was publicly
unveiled in the city park here to
day with appropriated exercises by
the Washington State Historical So
ciety. A granite marker on the
mountain side where the tragedy oc
curred was also dedicated in honor
of the brave pioneer.
At the time Captain Hembree lost
his life, Indian war was quite gen
eral in the Northwest. The seat of
trouble centered in Yakima valley
where lived Owhi, Kamiahkin and
Qualchan, that subchief who had
sworn to kill every white person who
came within his range.
Qualchin was probably the most
blood-thirsty men of all this section
of the country; many murders had
already been committed by him and
he had even killed some of his own
people when they had remonstrated
with him on his indiscriminate
slaughter.
On Januray 26. 1856, Indians be
sieged the town of Seattle, the intent
being to wipe out all American set
tlers; fortunately for the town and
%e people living here, the sloop of
war Decatur was in the harbor and
shells thrown from her soon drove
the Indians back.
The territory of Washington was at
that time sparsely settled, a few sol
diers were stationed at Forts Steila
coom, Vancouver and Walla Walla un
der the command of General Wool,
whose headquarters were in San Fran
cisco. Wool was strangely opposed
to having his soldiers do anything to
the Indians or to do anything that
pight be in line of co-operation with
Governor Stephens; therefore the
protection of life and property de
volved mainly on volunteers.
To assist Washington and for her
own protection. Oregon sent about
400 volunteers, commanded by Colonel
Cornelius up the Columbia river
through the Walla Walla district, on
through the Palouse country back to
the Columbia which stream they cross
ed at the mouth of the Yakima river
^nd proceeded up Satus Creek; com
ing to the mountains south of where
the city of Toppenish now is located.
Early on the morning of April 10,
1846, the colonel in command sent
a scouting party of ten men up the
mountain side under the command of
Capt. A. J. Hembree ( one of the 900
immigrants who crossed the plains in
1843 and made the path which Lieut.
Fremont found); as the scout near
the top of the mountain, they were
ambushed by Indians and Captain
Hembree was killed.

CLEVELAND.—Corp. Harold A. Moorehouse of this city, according to official
records of the United States army, lies beneath a little mound within gun
shot sound of the ruins of Ypres. His effects are in the possession of his
father and mother at the Moorehouse
_ ... home, Shaker Heights. Confirmation
MAVr YOU of his death and burial is contained
in sympathetic letters from superior
/1/M? officers and chums who attended his
funeral.
Yet no member of the Moorehouse
family believes Harold Moorehouse is
dead.
Herbert S. Moorehouse. merchan-;
dise manager of the Halle Bros. Co
store, father of the boy, within the
last few months has talked to more
than one hundred men and women, returned soldiers, nurses and Red Cross
officials mostly, who have recognized Harold Moorehouse’s photograph as that
of a young soldier suffering from amnesia treated in various camp hospitals.
George Hart, a farmer employee of the Halle Bros. Co., told the father he
had been told by a soldier that a number of “lost memory cases” from France
had just gone through Camp Mills, New York.
From that day Mr. Moorehouse began a search that has taken him into
seven states and brought him into contact with probably 10,000 soldiers and
at least 100 persons claiming to have seen Harold Moorehouse in this country.
At Camp Mills two orderlies and a nurse recognized Harold's photograph.
“I remember that boy,” Orderly John May said. “He was here. He went
into town the first night and bought a new suit.”
Some months later, Mr. Moorehouse says, the ouija board told of Harold
being in a hospital and getting a new suit. A clairvoyant la reported to have
said : “He was not killed; he is In the United States.”
