OBITUARY: 
Departed to Other World. 
Finley C. Perrine the Pioneer Bailiff of Supreme Court Is No More -- 
Passed Away Peacefully and Painlessly at his Home This Morning After Brief Illness of Paralysis of Brain -- 
Universal Favorite. 
Finley C. Perrine died at his home, at No. 412 Winter street this morning at 2 o'clock of paralysis on the brain. Probably no citizen of Salem was better known or more universally loved than was Finley C. Perrine. His humorous disposition and unlimited good nature made friends of all with whom he came in contact, and many a heart will beat in sadness at the news of his sudden death, for until yesterday only a few persons outside of his own family knew he was ill. His last and fatal illness dates from 10 o'clock Tuesday night. At that hour he retired, but did not awaken the following morning and has been lying unconscious ever since. Medical aid was summonded and all that human skill and ingenuity could do was done to bring him out of the comatose state, but all efforts were fruitless and he passed away peacefully this morning as stated above. Mr. Perrine had a severe illness about a year and a half ago, and though he has always since been able to attend to his duties, he has not been the lighthearted, jolly person that he was before the attack, and it has been known for some time that his health was failing, but none dreamed the end would come so soon. Mr. Perrine was born in Indiana fifty-seven years ago and came to Oregon in 1876. He acted for two years as nightwatchman at the State House and for the past nineteen years has been bailiff of the Supreme Court of Oregon. He was an honored member of the G.A.R. and also stood high in Masonic circles. He joined Pacific Lodge No. 50 in this city in 1890 and became a member of Royal Arch Chapter No. 1 in 1891, and the same year the Cammandery degree in Albany ...member of the Thirty-third Degree Oregon Consistory No. 13, and a member of Al Kader Temple, Nobles of the Mystic Shrine. Besides the heartbroken wife he leaves two daughters, Katie, aged 17 years, and Minnie, aged 15, and a sister, Miss Alice Perrine, all residing in this city. Funeral announcement will be made later.
