County Patient Dies.

John Davenport, an inmate of the county hospital, died yesterday
afternoon after a long illness, his affliction being pulmonary
abscess.

He was admitted February 3, last, coming from Kirkland Valley. He
was aged about 62 years, and was a native of New York.

He followed mining as a vocation, and was said to have used water
impregnated with copper solution, this being the basis of his throat
trouble. He has relatives residing in Illinois.

Pending the receipt of instructions from the ease, his remains are
at Runer's (sic Ruffner's) undertaking parlors.

Transcriber's note: Mr. Davenport is buried in an unmarked grave at
the Citizens Cemetery in Prescott, Arizona
