Hi Lisa,

Yes, I've seen other obits in the papers for grange members, and they were
always written up very formally in that kind of language.

The Herald-Disseminator was a newspaper in Albany - the Weekly Herald
Disseminator
and you can see the University of Oregon holdings here:

Oregon Newspapers On Microfilm: The Current Holdings

Copies of the Oregon newspapers are available to read in the UO Knight
Library Microforms Section. These rolls of microfilm are also available on
Inter-Library Loan, and positive microfilm copies may be ordered of any
titles with the source
code "ONMP". For further infomation, contact the Microforms Section at
(541) 346-3080.

It looks like they have copies of the Herald Disseminator from Nov 5, 1886
to Sep 15, 1904. The Albany Public Library might also have these issues on
microfilm - you can call the reference desk at 541-917-7582.
