OBITUARY.

In many respects Mrs. Mary Ramos, wife
 of Cornelius Ramos, who died at the ranch
 oi ;. O. Frederick, mile above town. on
 Friday, July 7th, 1876, was remarkable
 person, and we'll written history of her i eVehtiul life would constitute volume of thrllllng interest. She was born in
 Iexas, In August 1879, and her parents
 belonged to the Austin Colony. With out attempting to give even an outline of her ilie, which would constitute its chief inter- est, up to the time of her leaving Texas, IL Will be enough to say here that she enli- grated to Arizona in 1881; came to Prescott in 1864, and was soon after married to her sur viving husband, Cornelius Ramos, with whom she lived in the utmost happiness and concord until the time of her death. Mrs. Ramos was noted for great kindness and generosity and hundreds of the early se.- tiers of this portion of Arizona can attest her noble generosity and kindness of heart in dividing with the hungry and distressed. She kept the first boarding house in Pres colt, and was never known to refuse any one place at her table, whether they had the means to pay or not. Her life, as a Christian woman, and member of the Metho- dist Church, during her long residence here, has been Of the most exemplary character, andamong her last reque.s. was one that she might be permitted 10 partake of the Sacra- ment of the Lords Supper, which was ac- cordingly administered to her by ChaplainA Gilmore of Fort Whipple; after which she gave some instructions to her husband, as to making good some monied obligations she was under to the Church, when she bid farewell to all her friends, and passed away to that land, let Us hope, "where the wicked cease from troubling, and the weary are at rest.h If there was Christian in Prescott. Mary" was one. Many of the old resi- dents who knew and appreciated her worth, followed her remains to the Citizens Ceme- tery, on Saturday, where tEey were buried with the solemn ceremonies of the Metho- dist Church, which were read by Rev. E. w. Wiley. IT.

THOSE Two BUILDINGs.-The large store of c. F. Head S Co and the new school house, each, in it's line, the champion of the territory, seem to be running pretty even race towards completion. Robinson x Hill, sub-contractorS for the brick-work on C, P. Head & Co.'S house, are almost ready to hand it over to their principals, Messrs. Campbell x Parker who have the general contract Frederick & Heenan, we under stand, will begin on the tin roof on Monday. Allen, Winters and Hoffman, sub-contractors for the bricll-work in the school house, un- der Baker & Throne, the original contract DTS, are also progressing finely; the doors and windows of the second story, we observe, are set, and the building begins to show itself to the people in the lower parts of the town as il raises its crest above the Marina street divide. Col. Head has seen his build ing go up brick by brick, and knows just what il is made of, giving it his personal at tention each day. And Mcsrs. Btiffum and Burmister, the resident members of the Board of school Trustees in town, although they occupy position in which there is no pay, and for the performance of the duties of which there are seldom any thanks ren- dered, bave nevertheless been faithful and atten tive to the details of the school build ing.
