Sudden Death

William Hill, colored porter of Sweeney's barber shop, passed away
suddenly, Sunday morning at about 3 o'clock from a hemorrhage of the
lungs.

The affliction was believed to have been superinduced from a fall on
the sidewalk during the early part of Saturday night, although he
did not complain of any illness after reaching home.

He enjoyed an excellent name and was quite popular. He leaves a
wife. He was aged about 34 years.

A corner's jury returned a verdict that death was due to the above
cause.

The remains will be at Ruffner's and burial will be given this
afternoon at 2 o'clock.

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