Mr. Parker moved to the present site of Pomona in 1874, and thence to Los Angeles in 1885, where he has since resided. Like most of the natives of the North of Ireland, he was a staunch and active Protestant, and organized and long superintended the first Sunday-school in Pomona. He was a member of the First Christian Church of this city. Mr. Parker became the father of a family of ten. The surviving children are Mrs. Anna Haun of Chicago, O., and Dr. W.C. Parker, J.H. Parker, Mrs. George J. Dalton, Parry B. parker, Frank M. Parker and Mrs. B.F. Thomas of this city.

| 3038 | Powhattan Molloy Submitted by: LaVeta Randall Powhattan B. Molloy, a lawyer from Linn County, Mo., made the run into O.T. in 1889. Molloy was also a correspondent for the LInneus Bulletin, his hometown newspaper. His account of this early experience may be found in its entirety in Vol.I of the Cimarron Family Legends. He said in part, “There is scarcely a good tract of land that has been taken legally. The cowboys and the U.S. Marshals were here long before the 22nd of April and had taken up the best land.” He included an interesting history of Guthrie’s boom after the run where he first settled and went into the law business. He later moved his family to Lincoln County, northeast of Agra, O.T. where one opinion changed. “Oklahoma is the garden spot of thw world,” he said of Flynn (later called Soonerville). As a result of Molloy’s enthusiastic description (Vol.i), friends, family and neighbors came to O.T. and settled near him in northeastern Lincoln County. Molloy was born in 1838 in Virginia, and died 1910 in Oklahoma. He is buried in the Oak Dale Cemetery, northeast of Agra, not far from his home at Flynn (Soonerville). Wm. Gracen Cooper preached Molloy’s funeral. Molloy’s children were Millie, Jeff, Abel, Mollie, Nora, Mattie and Kate. | Molloy, Powhattan Bolen (I156)

| 3039 | Premium on Multiple. Anti-Race Suicide Gifts Frederick D. Parker, who died in this city, the 12th inst., aged 35, was evidently a believer in the Rooseveltian theory that it is the duty of married folks to multiply and replenish the earth, to judge by his will filed for probate yesterday. The instrument was executed the same day that he died. The chief asset of the Parker estate is stock of the Hawthorne Water Company, valued at $39,700, and this is left in trust for the benefit of the relatives of the testator, with Oscar J. Drum and Edward M. Lyon, as trustees, who are to hold the property for twenty-five years, and then turn over the stock or its equivalent in money to the two brothers of Parker. A number of his relatives are remembered with gifts of from $25 to $30 a month during the life of the trust. Orrel Parker, a brother, of New York, is to be given $20 a month, and to his wife $30 a month is bequeathed for each child that is born to the couple. He also provides that another brother, William R. Parker of this city, be given $30 a month and, if he marries, that much additional is to be paid to each child born of the union. It is further provided that $100 shall be paid to Charles B. Boutwell, secretary of the class of 1886 of Princeton University, for the benefit of the organization.

He was the holder of a B.A. degree from the University of Kansas, where he did a year’s post graduate work following graduation.

In the October 22 issue of “Pull Men,” the detachment paper, appeared an article by Prof. Overman, in which he urged that, under the existing conditions, “No American soldier or citizen can afford to assume anything else that that the war may go on indefinitely.” Peculiar distress is attached to the death of Prof. Overman through the fact that Mrs. Overman, who was formerly Miss Marion Gray of Spokane, is herself stricken with the disease that claimed the life of her husband.
