Black of Santa Maria was found dead in his room in this city at 1 o’clock yesterday morning. His death is believed to be due to heart complications and general debility of old age. He was nearly 70 years old. He leaves no relatives in this county. He settled on what is known as the Kirkland ranch nearly thirty years ago. He sold the ranch to E. E. Kirkland several years later and moved to Austin in the Santa Maria district where he engaged in mining. He came here a few days ago from Austin to renew old acquaintances. He was apparently in fair health and was seen often on the streets until the evening before he was found in bed with life extinct. He was a fine type of the old pioneer and esteemed and respected by all who knew him. Funeral arrangements will be announced later. ------------------------------------ Weekly Journal Miner, Prescott, Arizona Territory Wednesday, October 14, 1908, page 6, column 2 City News In Brief - (From Thursday's Daily) Remains Interred The funeral of C.
