Mosely Rites Mark Westward Pioneer Life in Melrose
The Melrose community honors Fielding A. Mosely with a Sunday funeral at the Presbyterian church after his death from appendicitis. He helped build Glendale coal and Dewey mining operations, later ranching near Vipond, joined the Glendale Odd Fellows, and left a widow Tullia Jennings and five children. The town also records a measles epidemic, several local illnesses, and multiple relocations of residents and families.
