By Pamela Harr
Missionary and first white woman to cross the Rockies on the Oregon Trail, Narcissa Whitman is portrayed in the moments after the death of her only child. Alice Clarissa Whitman, age 2½ years, drowned near the Whitmans’ mission at Walla Walla, Washington on June 23, 1839. Dr. Marcus Whitman could not revive the child and in her sorrow Narcissa turned, as she wrote in a letter afterwards, “to the promise of Gods holy word,” saying, “Thy will be done, not mine.”
