OBITU a IL ".
JOHN HAMLYN BURNELL.


A good and useful man has passed away
from our community %ith no further notice
than a scanty mention in the usual death
column. He deserves larger recognition
than this. He must be considered among
the builders of cities, because he was the
creator of industries. Mr.. Burnell was born
at East Hoathley, Sussex, England, April .,
1S49, and was the son of DR.. George Bur-
neil of that pace. Years ago he adj
ventured on this Coast, first in the newly
discovered British Columbia English colony,
but finding there was no field for him in
that direction, came 10 California, and, after
some trouble, established himself in bust
ness here. He was in the most eminent
sense of the term, chemicO-scientijcb brew
er, being member of a family who
had made English malt brewages celebrated
all over the world. Mr.. Burnell located at
Hunters Point, where he erected brewery
constructed from the iOat-rock he found on
the area OF his land, and for his cellars made
tunnels, after the old California miners
fashion, in the side-hill from 200 to 800 feet
in penetration. Just as lie had succeeded,
after fighting the battle that brave men have
to wage in order to win the goal OF their am
bition, he was suddenly called away. leaving
a devoted wife and most interesting FAM
lily and a host of friends to lament their be-
reavement. Burnell was a resolute, enter
prising man, who. had he been spared,
would have made conspicuous figure in the
local business history OF San Francisco.
Such men die too soon,
