 Just as yesterdays east bound pas senger train on the Santa Fe railroad was pulling into Seligman,a passenger in the chair car suddenly expired. It had been noticed that he appeared to be in the last stages of consumption, but he conversed with those about him, in a cheerful manner and no one seemed to realize that they were talking to a dying man. The mans head suddenly dropped back against the back of the chair, and he passed away as quietly and peacefully as if he were dropping into gentle slum- Der. His remains were taken off the train at Seligmn to be prepared for shipment to his former home in Chi cago.
