    p 3
    After our business adjourned the president introduced our speaker Bart Littlefield who is again living in our area after retirement and living here as a child attending Newberg schools. He is the grandson of Dr. Hobart Littlefield and says he is the last to carry the name as the other descendants were his great aunts Hazel Davidson and Lelia Eldreidge of St. Paul area. His grandmother was Maggie Nelson Littlefield and he remembers well the big home at 401 N Howard where they entertained many interesting guests. Bart has retired as a "detail man" for McKesson Drug Co so the family was-still medically connected. His three daughters are all nurses. Several generations of Littlefield's were doctors, dentists or pharmacists. Several members of CVH were brought into the world by Dr. Harry Littlefield, with Ruby Brisbine and Clifton Parrett being present. The line of doctors dates back to 1833. Bart and his wife are glad to be living in Newberg and we hope to hear more from them as they become members of our group. He donated many pictures and medical books to be added to our files at Newberg Library. Many events were of interest to us. His mother attended Geo Fox College with Herbert Hoover. The doctor calls were made with horse and buggy.
    At the passing of his grandmother Maggie Littlefield (1977 I think) his family driving from Medford were kidnapped by two filipinos who escaped from prison and that story made national headlines. We were shown newspaper clippings and true story magazines of the event that took place near Corvallis. They wanted his car to get away in a rush but his wife refused to leave their young daughters and says he owes his life to her presistence.
    His mother was an accomplished musician and played piano for many radio entertainers and Bart sang with the radio programs for several years. He had a rare picture of a troop of Oregon Calvary in Mexico in 1916. Many pictures of Newberg citizens, NHS graduating class of 1914 of which some recognized names. Doris read a tribute written to Dr. Harry Littlefield given by an old Chinese man who lived in this area but had moved to Woodburn at Dr. Harry's funeral he and his little dog walked all the way from Woodburn arriving as the service started. He knelt at the casket and gave a very touching eulogy of faithfulness since Dr. Harry had befriended him in many ways. Walking the 20 miles was certainly a tribute to anyone in those days. In fact there were many Chinese who lived and worked for area farmers as well in Yamhill, Carlton, St. Paul and Newberg.
  • PARENTS*: He was the child of Dr. Horace R. Littlefield (1845-) & Ann Kerwin (-1889)had 4 children: Elizabeth (wife of Judge W.L. Bradshaw of The Dalles; Horace L. is a physician at Newberg, Oregon; Edwin V. is a graduate of the Evangelical College at La Fayette, and is now studying medicine; and Harry is now at College.

    History of Oregon p 815-816.
  • Occupation*: He was doctor of medicine.
  • Census*: He appeared on the census of 21 June 1880 at Chicago, Cook County, Illinois.
  • Obituary*: An obituary appeared in the Dr. H. J. Littlefield No More
    Though such a sad event was not altogether unexpected, the town was shocked and saddened last Sunday morning when it became known that a little after seven o'clock, Dr. H. J. Littlefield, who had been lying low for several days with what the doctors finally determined Spinal Meningitis, had passed away. For the most part, he had been unconscious for days, arousing only now and then to answer a question or recognize loved ones, and was unconscious when the hand of death was gently laid upon him. The people of this vicinity have long watched with mingled pity and admiration the brave fight the doctor has so long made with his grim enemy, which seemed to attack him in so many directions, and a wave of pity swept over the community when it was learned that he had at last succumbed; that he who had saved others, himself he could not save. In his death Newberg loses an efficient physician and one of its most popular citizens.
    The funeral services were conducted Monday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock in the Friends church and were probably more widely attended that any ever before held in this part of the county. There are few homes in this neighborhood which Dr. Littlefield had not some time visited in times of trouble and distress, when his visits seemed more than professional calls, and when ties of relationship were knit, which largely explained the tribute expressed in the large audience which attended his funeral. As the funeral party entered the church, an organ voluntary was played by Miss Eleanor Satchwell. The following named prominent citizens served as pall bearers: S.M. Calkins, Jesse Edwards, B.C. Miles, N.C. Christenson, Clarence Butt, and J.C. McCrea. Following the family and relatives came the Masons, who had charge of the exercises at the cemetery.
    Rev. J.F. Day of Carlton, formerly pastor of the Baptist church here, had charge of the services, assisted by Pres. H.E. McGrew. Music was furnished by a quartet composed pf Mrs. J.W. Barrie, Mrs. H. Gould, and Messrs. I.E. Holt and W.C. Woodward. Selections rendered were "Walking by Faith," "Lead Kindly Light," an especial favorite of the deceased, and the sacred anthum "Abide With Me." Following a prayer by Pres. McGrew, eloquent with tenderness and sympathy, the funeral sermon was preached by Rev. Day from the text, "And the last enemy which shall be conquered is death." At the close of the services, the audience viewed the remains, it taking the better part of a half hour for the people to pass the bier, and the crowd was handled with pleasing dispatch.
    Among those in attendance from a distance, were, from McMinnville, Judge R.P. Bird and son Guy, D.I. Asbury, editor of the Yamhill Reporter, Deputy Sheriff W.C. Hagerty, School Superintendent E.V. Littlefield and wife, Rev. and Mrs. Jos. Hoberg, Goe. Hendershott and Eli Branson; from LaFayette, Pete Olds, Mrs. Vede Olds, Clabe Bryant, Mr. and Mrs. Al Fletcher, Jo Huston, Jas. Derby, Mr. and Mrs. J.L. Vickrey, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Bryant, Dug Nelson; from Dayton, Dr. A.J. Rossiter, John Nichols and Adam Rossner; from Carlton, Rev. Day and family and Mr. and Mrs. Wash Laughlin; from Butteville, O.H. Cone and John Vaughan; from Portland, Dr. H.R. Littlefield, father of the deceased, and wife, and Tom Belcher, proprietor of the St. Charles hotel; from Dallas, Mrs. D.M. Metzger, from The Dalles, Judge Bradshaw, brother-in-law of the deceased.
    Horace J. Littlefield was born in Mackinaw, Taswell county, Illinois, October 2, 1868. He came to Oregon in 1871 with his parents who settled in this county at LaFayette, in the public schools of which place he received his early education. In June 1888 he was graduated from the Monmouth State Normal, and on December 7th of the same year he was united in marriage with Maggie L. Nelson, of West Chehalem. In the years 1889 and 1890 he attended Rush Medical College at Chicago, and the next two years he spent at St. Louis in Missouri Medical College, where he was graduated with high honors. He has since resided continuously in Newberg where he has always had a very extensive practice. Within the last two years he has twice received the appointment of Surgeon on the United States Revenue Cutter Perry, twice making an extended cruise in Alaskan waters.
    A devoted wife, two young daughters, and a little son are left to mourn the loss of a faithful husband and loving father. The deepest sympathy of all goes out to the grief stricken family.

    All Newberg was shocked and saddened last week to learn of the death of Dr. Harry Littlefield, which occurred at Tucson, Arizona, on Friday, April 15. Dr. Littlefield had gone to that place last September to get relief from a consumptive condition brought on as a result of being gassed in the Argonne, and although at first his condition seemed to improve, it soon was apparent to those who knew that he could not overcome the handicap of the disease.
    Dr. Littlefield was born at Lafayette, Oregon, April 11, 1875. He graduated from the University of Oregon Medical college in 1897 and soon after enlisted for service in the Spanish-American war, being sent to the Phillippines, where he was stationed for the duration of the hostilities. He came to Newberg in 1903 and took over the practice of his brother, Dr. Horace Littlefield, who passed away shortly after this. From that time up to the time of his going to Arizona last fall, he followed his profession here in Newberg continuously with the exception of the time spent in the service during the late world war. He was a captain in the medical corps during his service in the Spanish-American war and during the late war was raised to the rank of major.
    For many years he was associated with Dr. E.A. Romig in his practice, but upon his return from the late war he became associated with Dr. J.W. Barcroft.
    The remains were brought to Newberg on Wednesday and were escorted to the Littlefield home that afternoon by a guard from the American Legion and lay in state at the home up to the time of the funeral.
    Dr. Littlefield was one of Newberg's most prominent citizens and in token of this, the city council at its session this week issued a proclamation asking that all business houses close during the hours of the funeral, and this request was largely complied with by the business men. The funeral was one of the most largelt attended of any held in Newberg in many years and was under the joint supervision of the Masons and American Legion.
    Services were conducted at the Presbyterian church at 2 p.m. Thursday afternoon, Rev. Bowersox, pastor of the Portland Evangelical church officiating. Music for the service was furnished by Mrs. Georgia Babcock and Miss Evah Hadley and consisted of a solo by the former, "Face to Face," and two duets, "Beautiful Isle" and "Lead Kindly Light."
    A caisson was secured from the Vancouver barracks for the occasion and the casket placed on this for transportation, a team of four large horses being used. A bugler from the Vancouver barracks was also present. Six active pallbearers were furnished by the American Legion were: A.P. Fessler, George Nichols, A.W. Heater, W.E. Thomas, V.M. Groff, and C.A. Evans. The honorary pall bearers were: Dr. E.H. Tucker, Dr. Cornelius and Dr. Venney, all of Portland, and Dr. John W. Barcroft, George Lutz, Lynn B. Ferguson, R.J. Moore, and Walter Mills of Newberg. The casket was draped with the American flag and color guard was appointed by the Legion, as follows: J.R. McDonald, sergeant; E. Duncan, J.C. Nelson and Walter Zurick.
    Interment took place in the local cemetery and here the Masons had charge of the service, using their impressive burial service. A firing squad from the Legion gave a salute. The squad was composed of B.J. Groth, lieutenant in charge; Ray Russell, corporal; E.S. Moore, C.J. Zumwalt, W.C. Newman, D.C. Morris, I. J. Morris, H.H. Rockwell, R.E. Wanless and A.D. Livengood. Taps were then sounded at the close of the service.
    A brother, Judge E.V. Littlefield, of Portland; a step-mother, Mrs. H.R. Littlefield, of Portland, and the following nieces and nephews, Robert Bradshaw of The Dalles, Hobart Littlefield of Oregon City, Mrs. Lelia Eldredge of Newberg, and Mrs. Hazel Davidson of St. Paul and Forest Littlefield of Portland were all expected to be in attendence at the funeral.
    Dr. Littlefield was too well known in Newberg to call for any eulogistic remarks from us. He always was active in civic affairs and was considered to be one of the very best physicians and surgeons in the state.
