O'Clock of pneumonia at the residence of
his cousin, John III. Williams, three miles
south of town. This il one of the most
sudden and unexpected deaths that have
occurred about Deer Lodge for many a.
day. He was generally SO strong and Wig
Orosis that the announcement was re-
ceived with unusual surprise. 1t seems
that he had been complaining for a week
or so with In grippe or some kindred at

usual, but ON Monday afternoon, after re-
peatedly being rRed, he went to
his cousins i'm the n where he
could be more comfortably cared for. At
the time he started out no conveyance
could be found going i'm that direc lion,
and 50 he walked, becoming quite heated
before reaching his destination. On
Tuesday n physician was called. Yester-
day afternoon the physician was called
again, bat thought his patient was doing
nicely; hut within an hour after he had
left MIR. Williams grew rapidly worse,
and. although the physician was again
summoned expired at the time stated.
Mr.. Williams was "a years of age and
was born in Kentucky. He came to Deer
Lodge i'm 1882, where he has since resided.
He was "a young man of most excellent
of the entire community. His funeral
will take place tomorrow from the
