Great Divide Is Crossed By Miner

H. T. Scott, one of the best known mining men in this section of
Arizona, passed away yesterday afternoon from acute attack of
bronchitis. For several months he had been in poor health, incidental
to a life in the open and under climatic conditions of the severest in
following his vocation as a miner and prospector.

The deceased was a man of generous impulses, and his many deeds of
consideration, toward his fellow man is on of the tributes to his
memory that will be cherished by those who knew him best.

Mr. Scott was recognized as a capable mining man, and at the time of
his death was interested in placer ground near Vicksburg, on the A. &
C. railroad, as well was he the owner of quartz mInes in other
sections of the country.

He was aged about sixty years, and for over a quarter of a century had
resided in this county.

His remains are at Ruffner's and after a sister is heard from residing
in California, will the funeral date be announced.

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