BOB SCHULTZ WAS A YAVAIAPI PIONEER

Robert J. Schultz, "Bob" to his multitude of friends, whose death
occurred a short time ago, was a true pioneer of this county. He
came to Yavapai county from California in 1871 or the year after, in
company with a party that included the Dillon's and the Nashe's. He
settled in Williamson valley and took up the business of ranching
which he pursued for many years.

Bob Schultz was a great lover of fine horses. His connection with
the racing game, in which he met with some success, is noted
throughout the southwest. His quarter horses have run on many
courses.

His last ranching connections were on the Santa Maria. His holdings
had been sold out, however, one of the purchasers being C. P.
Mullen.

Mr. Schultz was 65 years old when he died at a hot springs resort.
His wife was with him to the end.

He is survived by a son, Guy Schultz, and a daughter, Mrs. Henry
(Della) Ritter.

Transcriber's note: Mr. Schultz died December 6, 1921 at Hot
Springs, Sierra, New Mexico.
