DIED AT DINNER TABLE
END AS EASY AS IT WAS UNEXPECTED.


1t will be sad news to very many peo-
pie to know that George q. Bywater is
dead. His demise came at 1910 this
entirely unexpected. Apoplexy was the
cause. The respected veteran was in
the SEVENTEEN year OF his age, and in
his usual health. when the important
summons came. He had been up town
during the forenoon and had returned
home for lunch and was sitting at the
dinner table with the twenty ninth
volume OF his personal memoirs be-
fore him, and was simultaneously
scanning its pages and chatting with
his wife and son Caleb. Suddenly he
stopped eating, his head fell slowly for
ward, and rested upon his breast. He
appeared simply to have gone to sleep.
This proved to be true, but the sleep
was the sleep of death.
As quickly as possible he was car
ried to a lounge and laid upon 1t, while
Drs. Richards and Wilcox were sum-
moned. They responded promptly, hut
on their arrival Immediately announced
that they could do nothing, as he was
already dead. He leaves wife ana
seven children. He was an unpreten-
lions. Intelligent and useful life. He
friends, all of whom will regret to learn
of his death, peaceful and easy though
1t was.
George G. Bywater was born at
Bedwellty parish, Monmouthshire.
Wales November 18th, 1928. He Joined
the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter
day Saints in his native land and came
to Utah In 1854, first settling In the
Sixth ward, this city. Soon after his ar
rival he went into the matchmaking
business with Offenbach. who was the
first matchmaker In Utah. He was
the second conductor of the Utah Cen
trail, and locomotive engineer on the
Utah Southern, on which he had two
narrow escapes from death, one on
account of the breaking of a driving
rod on his engine, and the other by
the rolling over of an engine in the
Sixth ward, in which accident his
brakeman was killed. He was also
master mechanic on the Utah Central
for several years. He removed from
Salt Lake to Provo In 1859 or 1860, and
resided there for several years, during
which time he served two or three
terms In the city council at that place.
OF late years he had charge of the
machinery of the Salt Lake Temple
and was only released from that POSI-
| ton recently. He was painstaking
student and a man Of scholarly attain
ments. as gentle as a woman and as
trusting as child. On January LIST
last he finished three years term
| as member of the board of education
OF this city. At the time of his death
he was a director of the local Cam
brian association. He is the second
officer of the society to pass away
within a period of two months, the
other being Bishop Elias Morris. The
time and place of the funeral has not
yet been decided upon.

There was a circus at Chanute, Kan,
few days ago, reports the Kansas City
Journal, and an old farmer concluded
he would take his wife to it. He had
about SIS in change in his pocket, and
as a matter of precauton he took along
a revolver, knowing that he would not
get home until late at night. After
the circus was over the old farmer
spied "shell game and tried to beat
it. In about ten minutes he had lost
SIS. His wife was present at the per-
formance. She concluded that the old
man had got up against regular
swindling game as she termed it, and
decided to help him out. She took the
revolver out Of his pocket and poked
il under the nose OF the operator Of
the shell game and coolly told him
to give back the old mans money. The
gambler handed it over, and turning to
the cid farmer She said "Now, pa,
we'll go home and you can't ever go
to another circus as long as you live"

A New York exchange says that dur
ing gale Which ravaged the Atlantic
coast, the Short Beach life-saving sta.
ton on Long Island was aroused to
rescue four men in small sloop about
half a mile from shore. After tedious
and perilous trip the surf-boat reached
the sloop, and the crew found on board
four men benumbed with cold and half
starved. When brought to a place of
safety and thawed out they told their
story. They had been out on cunning
trip on the sound, and when overtaken
by the storm had taken refuge in q
deserted shanty. Their provisions were
soon exhausted, and also their fuel,
and then, although perfectly aware Of
their peril, they set sail again, in hopes
OF bringing up at some place where
they could get provisions. AS conse-
quence OF such rashness they came near
losing their lives. The captain of the
life-savers remarked afterward that II
was a pity to risk the lives of good men
t. save the lives Of confirmed idiots.
