H. W. Harshman in charge. Burial was in the Shelton Memorial Park, in the family plot beside his mother who died here in 1927. His death occurred Saturday morning, a few hours after he returned from a visit to Aberdeen. He was born in Sauk Center, Minn., in 1870, and is survived by his widow, Mrs. Helen Chester, formerly Helen Fisk, one son, Edward Chester in California; two daughters, Mrs. Jennie Goodro and Mrs. Hazel Tillman, both of Tacoma; one stepson Charles Frank Chester, of Shelton; and one granddaughter, Mrs. Goldie Bendix, of Port Orchard. Deceased came to Mason county with his mother, Fannie Chester, back in 1890, when they settled on a homestead near Mason Lake, on which they lived until 1911. He early became interested in native oysters, and owned extensive beds in the bay during the better years of the local industry, doing some farming on the side. He often recalled the winter of 1893 when they were snowed in for several weeks, and the winter of 1915-16 when the oysters were frozen out, but the oysters soon came back and in a year or two the reserve beds furnished seed to restock all the private growers of the county.
