4 Pioneer Gone.

Captain Nicholson Schenck Da- wis died from heart disease in a room in the Transfer company's building on Oregon street yester- day about noon. Capta1n Davis was one of the earliest pioneers to the far west, and one of the men active in building up and improv- ing many portions of country now prosperinS and promising.
 Captain Davis was born in Del aware county, Pennsylvania, in 1925. When the California gold fever broke out he started for the Golden Gate. Instead of going around by Cape Horn, he crossed Mexico under escort of a company of Mexican soldiers. The com mander of these troops was Lieu tenant Diaz. now president of the republic. Captain Davis was q
The Clifton clarion., 1886-12-29

member of the constitutional con- vention at Monterey in lS49, and an influential man in all the affairs of the new state. He engaged in civil engineering When the war broke out he joined the California column under General Carleton, as captain of company K, First California volunteers. The troops marched across the country to Fl Paso, and for time was in com mand at Fort Bliss.
 Even during the war Captaln Davis predicted that Fl Paso would be the great city of the southwest, and believed that a line of railroad would run into El Paso by the way of White Oaks. Re cently he has been one of the chief promoters of the projected road to White Oaks, and surveyed the route. He probably laid out routes for more railroads in the southeast than any other man. He was one of the surveyors who tried to find route across the Sierra Madre mountains to connect the Sonora branch of the Sante Fe with the Mexican Central, and reported that no practicable route could be found.
 Captain Davis was a brevet brig adier-genetal, but always went by the subordinate title.
 Captain Davis was a member of the Grand Army of the Republic and also of the California Argo- nauts.
 His remains were shipped east for interment.-El Paso Daily Times, 25th inst.
 Capt Davis was well known in this place and was at one time prominently identified with the de velopment of this section, and the deceased had many friends here who will mourn his demise. He had charge of the survey and con struction of the Arizona and New Mexico railroad, and was after wards superintendent of the Ari zona copper mines.
