MITCHELL, Daniel

Arizona Weekly Miner, Prescott, Arizona Territory Friday, July 27, 1877, page 3, column 1 Death of Daniel Mitchell Once more we are called upon to chronicle the death of one of our best citizens, which took place at his residence yesterday afternoon about 4 o'clock. Mr. Mitchell was born at Bridgewater, Mass., on the 5th day of February, 1807, consequently was at the time of his death, a little over 70 years of age. Mr. M. at an early age took up the profession of a Civil Engineer, which he followed through life, and was admitted to be an adept in his calling. He emigrated from Massachusetts to Kansas in 1856, and was there through many years of bloodshed and troubles that cursed Kansas in its earl settlement. Mr. M. lived at Junction City, and constituted on of the Callen party that emigrated from that place to Prescott a little over two years ago, and acted, we believe as treasurer for that Company. He leaves a wife, son and daughter with us who are honored members of society, and lost one son during the rebellion, a young man of 23 years, who held a commission in the Union Army, and served in the division of Gen. Sherman. -------------------- Arizona Weekly Miner, Prescott, Arizona Territory Friday, July 27, 1877, page 5, column 4 Died - Mitchell - At his residence, about 4 o'clock this afternoon of typhoid fever.
