OblIUAhAs
Friends here of John Stevens, of Sacrs-
mento, CAL, were panied to hear of his
death. He married Miss Eliza Higgins, OF
this place. The Sacramento Bee says OF
him:
One of the best known and best-liked of the
old time citizens of Sacramento died when
John Stevens paid the great debt of nature.
Mr.. Stevens had been i'll since September,
patiently suffering and patiently facing the
inevitable. Several times within the past
month his life was despaired of, but his
strong constitution and his indomitable will
carried him on.
John Stevens was one of the pioneer Sacra-
mentans and one of the old-time settlers on
Suffer terrace, then known by the less eupho-
nious title of Poverty ridge. He owned for
many years the one-half block on the south
side of U. street, between Twenty-frst and
Twenty second, and his garden and small
orchard were always the admiration of the old
people, and the delight of trespassing boys.
Deceased was born IN Newburyport, Mass,
in 1882 coming to California in 1855 by way of
the Isthmus. He was at one time president
of the Pioneer box factory, and was vice.
president of the Friend & Ferry Lumber
Co, of this city, being connected with
that firm for forty-fve years. He served one
term as school director in Sacramento, and
was superintendent OF streets under Mayor
George H. Clark.
Mr.. Stevens led quiet and homelike life.
He was known throughout his career, both in
public and private life, as Honest" John
Stevens, and he we'll earned the title. So
thoroughly appropriate was it that during
the appeal of George II. Clark for reelection
as mayor of this city, he spent great portion
of his time in proclaiming to the citizens that
he would reappoint "Honest" John Stevens
to his old position if he were reelected. In
fact he made Honest John Stevens a step
ping-stone to his success.
Mr.. Stevens was a very likable man, quiet
retiring and good citizen, not at all obtru-
sive, but determined when he was fighting for
the right chock full of courage, with an in
tegrity that was never questioned.
He leaves widow, two sons and two daugh-
tiers - H. l.. and Eugene N Stevens and
Misses Lottie and Addie Stevens
