HIGHLY ESTEEMED BY ALL.
AS a Lawyer, Ciubman and in His
Private Relations His Short
Life Was Exemplary.

A very large circle of friends and ac-
Quaintances will be shocked to hear of the
death of Ramon Z. Wilson, the we'll
known member Of the law firm of Will
son & McCutchen. Mr.. Wilson died at his
residence. 2512 Washington street, yester-
day morning at Z 20 o'clock of neuralgia OF
the heart.
He had been i'll for about three weeks,
but had so far recovered as to be consid-
cred convalescent when the fatal fat

strong and hearty that he went down to
his Office in the Mills building and ap-
peared in fairly good health and hopeful
OF speedy and compile restoration. But it
was not TO be.

death seemed 10 make blank in his life
which nothing could fill.
Ramon Z. Wilson was born in Mexico,
having come of the best Puritan stock of
New England-the Wilson's and Wald-
bridges. His birth took place at GuadaIa-
jara during the temporary residence of his
parents there.
He after ward attended Harvard College,

MIR. Boalt dropped out, and the firm be-
came Estee. Wilson IL McCutchen. Not
long afterward Mr.. Estee resigned, ana
the firm has since been Known as Wilson d
McCutchen.
He was noted in legal circles for his in.
defaiigable industry and patience. as well
as for remarkable grasp of the essential
in mass of entangling technicalities.
For his clear head he was widely famed,
aud was building up an enviabe practice

ing career was thus rudely cut short
He was an intimate friend of the late
W. S. Hobart. the capitalist, who ap-
pointed him guardian of his son. He was
interested with Mr.. Hobart ia several
large mining operations In Arizona and
Nevada.
In all his social relations he occupied an
enviabe place. Specially was this evil
denced In the estimation in which he was
held at the various clubs OF which he was
a member. AS one of the founders of the
Country Club and prominent mem bel of
the Pacific Onion, Bohemian, Olympic,
University and Burlingame clubs his loss
will be deeply felt ALWAYS genial and
unaffected, lie had invariably the best ill.,
terests of the clubs at heart and delighted
in everything, which accrued to their ad-
vantage.
In every schems originating at the vari-
Gus clubs in aid of large and deserving
charities Mr.. Wilson took an active part,
and was not slow to stimulate any tagging
interest that he might encounter in
brother clubmen. The lady managers of
many despairing Institution have TO
thank Mr.. Wilson's answering support
for the success of some charity enter
tainment," which resulted in a substantial
sum being added to their treasury.
Personally he. took a deep interest in
angling. and it was largely on that ac-
count that be was appointed one of the
members of the State Board of Fish Com
missioners, and served as secretary of that
body until about ten months ago. He
brought TO bear on his duties In that Office
true love of sport, as well as an intimate
kno owledge Of its requirements-Qualitie
which were invaluable to the commits
