DIED.-M any ofthe carly settlers Of thi
county remember James L. Langworthy, Of
Dubuque, and will regret to learn that that
early pioneer in Iowa, departed this life on
Tuesday last in an apoplectic TT. Concern
ing him the Herald says
Mr.. Lapgworthy was born in Vermont in
the year Of 1900, and was consequently at
the time Of his death 65 years of age. His
parents removed to New York when he was
mere child, and in that State the rest of
the brothers were born. He came into this
country as early ss 1928, long before the In
dians relinquishcd their possession, and was
with others driven across the river where
| they remained until the Indian title was ex-
tinguished, when he at puce returned. This
was in 1880, and he has resided here con.
stantly ever since. He and his brother Luz
cius obtained the claim to most Of the land
on which the city Of Dubuque now stands.
it is said for 500. They resided in the up.
per part of the city and their land was most
" in that direction, embracing ali Of the
Coulter Valley and Langworthy Hollow.
| They entered at once into mining and prob
ably struck the first rich lead. They held
on to the real estate, and in the flush times
ot 1906, the two brothers were reported to
oe worth three millions. But the crash oi
100! went hard with them as it did with all
.nnu ,hoiders, and James had never fully ex-
"'ea'eu himself from it.. During several
ears Iney run the bank Of j. L. LangwOr-
sny q nros., row occapied BY the German
savings Bank, which block is, in fact, own
ed BY the Langworthys.
James L. Langworth was married it Gal.
ena in 1s4O, and leaves wife and four chill
drcn, one son and three daugtcrs. One
daughter is attending school in Chicago and
has been telegraphed to return home. Mr..
l.angwortby was generous hearted and
open-handsd man with some faults, NO doubt,
like all Of US; but pow that he has passed
away, he viii b tSmsmbered only ss the
good citiasA ana Ahsold pioneer.
