FUNERAL OF W. C. DUNBAR.
The body of William C. Dunbar arrived yesterday morning by train, from Portland, accompanied by the parents of deceased, Hon. W. R. Dunbar and wife, and a large number of relatives and friends. It was met at the depot by a delegation of the A. O. U. W., and by a squad from B company, second Oregon infantry; and was taken from there direct to the I. O. O. F. cemetery, where it was interred under the auspices of the A. O. U. W., the infantry acting as a guard of honor. The bereaved parents have the sympathy of a host of friends. Mr. and Mrs. Dunbar are now the guests of Maj. F. E. Hodgkin and wife, the latter being Mr. Dunbar's sister. They will probably return to Goldendale today.
