Young Man Dies - Falls a Victim to the White Plague After Long Illness
Victor Peterson, of whom the Journal-Miner made mention as a sufferer from tuberculosis, a few days ago, died Sunday morning. He was for a while in the Oro Grande mine in Mineral Point district, and came to this section about a year ago in the hope of a change of climate benefiting him. It was of no avail, however.
He was a young man of genial disposition, and much sorrow is expressed by those who knew him best over his untimely death. He leaves a brother in Chicago, and a mother and father in Denmark, where he was born twenty-four years ago.
His brother was with him at the time of his death. His remains will be interred in this city.
Transcriber's note: Mr. Petersen is buried in an unmarked grave at the Citizens Cemetery in Prescott, Arizona.
