<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I have pioneer families too</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I need to get off the pot and get involved
too.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I read all the books on this.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial> I have a 1918 printing about it.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>How ever as for me, I think most of my family missed the
Champoeg meeting that time we became a state. But I will never forget the
story behind how it happened <G> I think a lot was learned that day and
people still chuckle from the story.</FONT></DIV>
