An illustrated history of Walla Walla County, state of Washington (Volume 1)

. (page 51 of 75

FRANKLIN B. MORSE.— A veteran of

"the Civil war as well as of the Indian struggles

of later years, and a respected and esteemed

pioneer of the county, the subject of this brief

"biographical review certainly merits representa-

tion in a volume of this character, and it affords

us pleasure to accord the same to one who has

made so highly honorable a record both in

peace and in war.

Mr. Morse was born in New York on July

II, 1845, came thence to Ohio in 1853, and

from that state to Iowa in 1856. He had no

more than completed his public-school educa-

tion until the necessities of his war-scourged

country began to appeal to him, and in 1862

he enlisted in Company C, Eighteenth Iowa

Volunteer Infantry, in which he served until

the goddess of peace again visited our land.

Not long after his discharge he came from his

old home in Iowa to Walla Walla county, ar-

riving September 3, 1868, it being his fortune

to become one of the pioneer agriculturists of

this valley. He followed farming and stock

raising for the first seven years, and during

that time took a prominent part in securing

the formation of Columbia county, which was

formerly a part of Walla Walla county. He

subsequently removed to this city, where for

the first three years he followed the dairy

business.

During the Bannock uprising of 1878 he

served as second officer in command of the

\\'alla \\'alla volunteers, and to him belongs

a large share of the credit for the fortunate

outcome of the engagement on the Columbia

river, the result of which was to prevent the

redskins from crossing the river and doing un-

told damage on this side. The Indian sup-

plies were captured and their canoes destro3'ed.

In 1879 Mr. Morse sold his farm and ac-

cepted a position with the firm of Paine Broth-

ers & Moore as their shipping clerk, and on

the completion of the O. R. & N. he entered

the employ of the company, serving for two

and a half years thereafter as their night police

officer. In May, 1884, he was appointed by

the county commissioners to the office of con-

stable, and he retained that post until the state

penitentiary building in this city was com-

pleted, when his services were called into requi-

sition in connection with the removal of the

prisoners from Seatico, now known as Bucoda,

to this city.

In 1889 he was appointed a police officer,

and in the discharge of his duties as such found

their field of operation. Mr. j\Iorse has proven

signally faithful to every trust, public or pri-

vate, in peace or in war, which has ever been

reposed in him, and he is maintaining his good

record in the work in which he is now en-

gaged.

Mr. Morse has been twice married. On

November 14, 1869, in the city of Walla Walla,

his first wedding was solemnized, and to this

union two children were born: Charles F., now

in DeLamar, Idaho; and Cora D., now Mrs.

Edward Stanfield, of Walla Walla. On March

15, 1900, he was again married, the lady being

Mrs. Emma J. Weathermon, a native of Bel-

mont county, Ohio, who came to Oregon in

1883. She lived near ^vlilton, in that state,

until 1897, then moved to \\'alla \\'alla, where

she has ever since lived .
