Policelogs Lena Marie Tompkins was born Feb. 21, 1917 to Elbridge and Lola Etchison in Cheyenne, Wyoming. She was the second child. Her sister Erma Mapes, the oldest, her brother, Byron Shaw, the youngest. She has one son, Robert Charles Tompkins. Tompkins lived at Oak Creek Ranch on Dusty Way, in Tehama County from 1951 until January of 2014, when she moved into Te- hama Estates in Red Bluff. She raised Robert as a sin- gle parent along with her mother, Lola. She lived an exciting, hard life. She enjoyed spending time on horse- back, with her son and mother by her side. They were avid rock hounds. She had a trailer site at Mill Creek for many years. They would sum- mer up there and would keep horses to ride at Elizabeth Hanna's Ranch, which still exists today off State Route. 36. She and Robert used to go on wagon trail rides all over Oregon, Nevada and California. She is a woman of many stories and un- tapped talent. She talks fondly of taking her horse up into the Mill Creek Canyon as a young girl, with nothing more than a sack of grain for the horse, and some hard- tack and water for herself. She'd take off with nary a care about letting anyone know where she was going, just that she'd be home for school. She remembers a time when during get-togeth- ers, she'd play the fiddle, and her mother would play the piano, much to the de- light of people, wherever they were. She recalls town dancing in the dirt streets and having a wonderful time of it. She had many horse drawn buggies, one of which she donated to the Tehama County Museum, which is there today. She now resides at Te- hama Estates and still shares her laughter and love of live.

TEHAMA COUNTY Computer security and workshop set A sad, but unfortunate accident happened early Sunday morning which re- sulted in snuffing out the life of Miss Victorine Boots, who was a clerk in Exley's candy store in this city. Miss Boots in company with three other compan- ions, Bob Moore, Luke Wilder and Miss Myrtle Motte, were out riding in a Ford car. They had attended a dance at the Brown school house on Reeds creek west of Red Bluff in company with Mr. and Mrs. Jack Riggins. Along between five and six o'clock in the morning this party re- turned from the dance. Rig- gins and his wife got out of the car at their home and Moore and Wilder took the car to take the girls to their homes, Moore being at the wheel of the machine. Insteadofdoingthis,how- ever, the party concluded to take a short ride. As stated by Moore at the coroner's inquest, which was held by Dr. J. F. Bailey Monday eve- ning, they concluded that it was too late for the girls to go home as they both had to work the next day and that in order to kill time before breakfast they took this sec- ond jaunt in the car. Moore in his statement to the jury said that after they left Riggins and his wife at their home he, in company with Miss Boots on the front seat and Luke Wilder and Miss Motte on the rear seat, drove on down the Corning road until they cam to what is known as Robinson's lane. They turned in on the lane and went a mile or so up and then after a ten or fif- teen minute stop returned toward town. Moore claims that he was driving along at about a ten or twelve mile gait and just after he crossed the bridge on Brickyard creek Miss Boots leaned out of the car as if looking toward the rear, when he his a small chuck hole in the road which threw her out of the car onto her head. The door on the car gave way just as he hit the chuck hole and this caused her to fall. The young lady was picked up in an unconscious condition and rushed in town. Before they reached the home of the doctor she regained consciousness and with assistance walked up the stairs to the doctor's office. Her condition re- mained about normal un- til late Sunday afternoon when it changed for the worse, she dying about 3:30 o'clock. — Feb. 21, 1917 100 YEARS AGO...
