OBITUARY: 
Aaron H., better known as Hal Alsip, died in the hospital in Dallas last Friday morning after a very brief illness. The circumstances of his death are peculiar. He had suffered with an aching and ulcerated tooth it is reported, and had it pulled by a Dallas dentist. The tooth was so badly infected that it broke off in the process of extraction. It is probably that blood poisoning resulted, if it was not already present when the tooth was extracted. A post mortem was held over the remains but with what result we did not learn. Funeral services were held in Chapman’s undertaking parlors in Dallas Monday afternoon. There was a large attendance. Many Monmouth people were present as well as neighbors from the Mistletoe district where he lived. 
Mr. Alsip for a time conducted a livery business in Monmnouth and last spring bought the farm Arthur Moore had been living on. He is survived by a wife and one child. 
Aaron Halbert Alsip was born May 4, 1895 at Bushnell, Brooking Co, S. Dakota, and passed away October 8, 1920. He came to Albany, Oregon with his parents in 1901, and from there moved to Dallas, Oregon, 1908. He was married to Vera Leona Brown, October 25, 1916. He leaves a wife and child three years old, his father, mother and four brothers, Vern, Russell, Henry and Frank. Out of town relatives and friends attending the funeral were A.N. Davis, Bushnell, S. Dakota, grandfather; W.J. Stratton, Tacoma, Wash, an uncle; and Mrs Frank Kitchen, Mr and Mrs Kean and Mr Dornett of Albany.
