SKULL CRUSHED AND NECK BROKEN

Little Creswick Roy Turley Met With Accident Which Proved Fatal–Was Playing Among Branches of a Tree, Lost Balance and Fell to the Ground.

The skull at the back of the head was crushed and probably the neck of little Creswick Roy Turley was broken last evening about 8 o’clock as the result of falling from a tree, the injuries soon resulting in the boy’s death.

The unfortunate lad, who was only 10 years old, is the son of Mr. and Mrs. O Turley who reside at 307 South Third street. He was playing in the tree when he lost his balance and tumbled to the ground, lighting on the back of his head with the fatal results stated.

A physician was called and it was thought for a time that there was a possibility that the life of the little fellow could be saved and every effort was made to keep the spark of life within the body but they were of no avail.

The body is now lying at the undertaking rooms of Williamson & Sherrier, awaiting funeral arrangements. Two brothers, who are attending the university at Moscow, have been sent for.

Noted Pioneer Woman of West Death Victim
Three western states lost one of their pioneer women Friday in the death of Mrs. Louise Ann Turley at her home, 320 East Seventeenth street, San Bernardino, at the age of 83 years.

Mrs. Turley, who had resided in San Bernardino for the past 10 years, was born Jan. 7, 1856, at Cedar City, Utah, while her parents, John and Ann Creswich Woodhouse, Mormon settlers, were en route by wagon train to the San Bernardino valley.

She spent most of her life, however, on frontier ranches in Washington and Idaho, where it was necessary to produce in the home practically every article of clothing, furniture and other necessaries. One of her memories was the theft of a cup and silver spoon by Indians from a wagon in which she was riding, and the restoration of these trinkets 20 years later.

During part of her residence in Idaho, she operated the Willow creek stage station, west of Boise, for a number of years.

Her husband, Jacob [Omner] Turley, who died in 1924, was the son of Theodore Turley, one of the most prominent of early-day San Bernardino valley settlers. The elder Mr. Turley helped build the first school, served on the committee that negotiated with the Lugo family for the purchase of the San Bernardino townsite, and operated a blacksmith’s and gunsmith’s shop.

Four sons survive Mrs. Turley. Jay Turley, of Albuquerque, N. M., a prominent engineer and lawyer, for years was engaged in irrigation and reclamation projects in New Mexico, and also served as deputy U. S. surveyor for the state of Idaho. W. G. Turley, another son, also resides in New Mexico, where he was for a time state highway engineer. He makes his home at Santa Fe. Prof. Louis A. Turley is assistant dean of the medical school at Oklahoma State university, Norman, Okla., and the fourth son, Dr. J. S. Turley, is a Los Angeles physician.

Mrs. Turley’s body will be forwarded to Yakima, Wash., where funeral services will be held Tuesday. The Stephens & Bobbitt mortuary is in charge of arrangements.

…my father, Jacob Omner, born in S.B. January 30th, 1852, and died in Boise, Idaho in September of 1924, was his youngest son who lived to maturity and left seven sons of which I am the fifth and only one living

My two oldest brothers were born in Beaver, Jay on April 16, 1877, …. My second brother, Louis Alvin,…

My third Bro., Walter Guy, was born on the Holcomb Ranch five mi. above Boise, Idaho on the way to Yakama, Washington, October 4, 1881. My parents remained in Idaho because my oldest brother, then aged 4½ rode on a giant rutabaga for a hobby horse and my father said that any land that could produce such a giant vegetable was good enough for him; so he remained in So. Idaho. My parents spent their first winter there in charge of the Willow Creek stage station on the old Oregon Trail, 18mi. N.W. of Boise the first station on the way to Portland, Oregon. Without any cookbooks, our mother devised 38 different ways of cooking potatoes and her fame spread as far as San Francisco.

The next spring my father homesteaded on the Paytte R. 6 mi. west from Emmett. Then only a crossroads with only three of the four corners occupied, but now a thriving town of several thousand people. Our place where I was born August 3rd, 1887, was so far and isolated that there was only one house within sight and that was 1 and ¾ mi. away.
