Ezra Meeker, one of the last survivors of the covered wagon era, died in Seattle at 97 after months of illness. He hatched a lifelong project to memorialize the Oregon Trail with monuments, retraced the trail by ox team in 1906, and planned a second auto tour before his illness deepened. He left three daughters and a son, and had hoped to vote in the recent election had he not fallen ill in Detroit. He was born in 1830 in Huntsville, Ohio, and once ran a Fort Steilacoom store and hop interests before authoring pioneer life books.
