at the home of the latter last Fri
day night after long illness OF
tuberculosis. The remains were
taken to Creighton, Nebraska,
Saturday night for burial, accom-
panied by the brothers, mother
and sister of the deceased. Mr..
johnson had been i'll of the dis
ease that caused his death for scv-
eral years; more than q year ago
he came to Colorado and for .
time lived in the western part of
the state. Last spring he came
to this county and made his home
with his brothers. The change
of climate did not benefit his
health, and medical science could
do nothing for him. His death,
while uot unexpected, was . shock
to his relatives, and these have
the generous sympathy of large
circle of friends here, and at their
old home in Nebraska.
