[or-roots] Daniel Ryan - Josephine Co. obit

[CARROLLOUC at aol.com]

I am looking for an obit or write up on the death of  Daniel Ryan - my 
grandfather's uncle.
 
I received the following from a lady in Baker City and  would like to follow 
up on it:
 
 
The  Weekly Bedrock Democrat
Monday, June 1, 1896
page 6
Baker Co. Library  microfilm collection, reel # 312

Died at Grants Pass

The  intelligence has been received here of the death of Daniel Ryan, a 
former  resident of Baker City, whose demise occurred a few days ago at the town of 
 Grant's Pass, Southern Oregon. Mr. Ryan at one time owned some suburban  
property here.


Daniel died 21, May 1896. The story my grandfather told what that  Daniel had 
been set upon by thieves and murders while hauling freight. However,  he said 
it happened in Baker Co. This is apparently wrong according to the above  
excerpt,
 
I would appreciate help from anyone having access to old newspapers files  in 
Grants Pass that could look this up. I live in Medford but can no longer  
drive to Grants Pass or I would come over and do the research myself.
 
Thank you
Carroll (Cooper) Summers
