Kirkpatrick Added 06/06/07 Death Claims Two Well Known Citizens William E. Kirkpatrick, Orchardist, Is Called. Mrs. Maria M. Dow Found Dead in Bed Sunday Morning, Result of Heart Failure. William E. Kirkpatrick The death of William E. Kirkpatrick occurred at his Pogue Prairie home last Saturday evening at about 6 o'clock. Although he had been in ill health for the past two years, following a severe siege of typhoid, Mr. Kirkpatrick had been able to be about the place up to within a few days of his death, and hopes had been entertained for the full recovery of his death. William E. Kirkpatrick was one of the best known pioneers of the section now embraced in the government irrigation project. Fifteen years ago this month he came into the Okanogan country in company with his brother-in-law, J. H. Sprowl, and his sister, Miss Laura Kirkpatrick, all three taking up homesteads in the vicinity of the pioneer Pogue ranch. These places have been developed into magnificent orchard tracts, and Mr. Kirkpatrick's 40-acre apple orchard is one of the finest in the valley, if not in the state. Deceased was one of the real "live wires" of this territory and a man of great energy and everlasting faith in the Okanogan country. He was one of the first to agitate the matter of government irrigation for Pogue Flat, and it was largely through his efforts and those of his little band of co-workers and boosters that the hopes of the early settlers were finally realized in the government's taking hold of the big proposition. Deceased was born in Bloomington, Iowa, 55 years ago. His immediate relatives surviving are his sister, Miss Laura Kirkpatrick, who has been his companion for years; another sister, Mrs. Adams of Weatherspoon, Iowa; and a third sister, Mrs. Dr. F. P. Adams of Yellow Pine, Alabama. Dr. and Mrs. Adams are now on their way here, and funeral arrangements are being held up pending their arrival.
