OBITUARY: 
FRAZIER--At the family residence in this city, Thursday morning, June 6th, 1889, of a lingering illness, Mrs. Margaret Frazier, aged 67 years.
Mrs. Frazier was born in Inverness, Scotland, in 1822, and was married to Angus Frazier, on September 17th, 1846 in Glasgow. Three years after their marriage, they sailed for the United States, landing in New York, where they remained a short time and afterwards went to Canada. In 1876 Mr. Frazier decided to remove to Oregon and on the 25th day of May, 1876, just 14 years ago, they landed in Oregon and have resided here ever since. Five years ago Mr. Frazier died and now his wife has gone to join him. Six children survive their parents; four of whom reside in this city. They are Mrs. Eliza Umphrey, Miss Maggie Frazier, Miss Jennie Frazier and Abraham Frazier; and the other two daughters, Mrs. Scouller and Mrs. Coutts reside in British Columbia. The body will be conveyed to the Presbyterian church tomorrow afternoon, where the funeral services will be held, after which the body will be laid to rest in the Odd Fellows' cemetery.
