Col. Montgomery Dead.

Lieutenant Governor Elect
Benjamin Franklin Montgomery.
prominent attorney, mine owner
and cattleman, died at st. Luke's
hospital in Denver, Colo. at 7:3O
O'Clock Sunday morning. Dec. 20,
1912. Laryngitis, which set in fol-
lowing an operation for gallstones
December Ia, was the immediate
cause of his death.
Through many years. residence
in Colorado, Colonel Montgomery
had won to himself a host of per-
manent friends of all classes,
creeds and political faiths. al
though he was the acknowledged
leaders of Democracy.
In all his dealings men found
him a stanch friend, a worthy op-
ponent and a man whose integrity
could not be doubted and whose
word always was kept. To the
women with whom he came in
contact during his political life
and in his practice as an attor-
ney, he was known as a courteous
gentleman, always ready to aid
in a worthy cause or to lend his
services to right a wrong.
More than 78 yeas old, Colo
mel Montgomery was almost
ready to retire from active polit-
ical and business life. His term
as lieutenant governor was to
have been the end of his public
life and was to have realized the
ambition of his life.
