DENVER PAPER TELLS OF HIS
DEATH IN BALTIMORE
HOSPITAL

The following account OF the death
of William H. Bryant is taken from
the Denver News of April 7:
William Henry Bryant, former city
attorney and one of the best known
lawyers of Colorado. died at & o'clock
last night in johns Hopkins hospital
1T Baltimore after a brave battle of
more than four years for health. An
nouncement of Bryant's death came
in a telegram from Mrs. Bryant to
George l.. Nye of the law firm of
Thomas. Bryant, Nye & Malburn. OF
which Bryant was a member.
Death was caused by tuberculosis
of the bladder. For more than a
week but little hope has been held
for Bryant's recovery. For ten days
preceding his death Bryant was I'M
able to receive nOurishment of any
kind.
Intimate associates of Bryant have
known that for more than four years
the spector Death has ever stood be-
side him. Only the strength of his
will kept him at his work with a
grim courage that never faltered.
During that time scarcely a Sun
day has gone by that he did not
spend in bed to gain strength and
relief from the pain that was ever
with him.
Several years ago he first visited
Johns Hopkins. Specialists then were
baffled by the peculiar nature of his
malady and gave him slight
agement.
Bryant's finest tribute is the bril-
liant work he accomplished during
this period of i'll health. Denver's
victory in the water case was large
ly due to him. He made the city's
oral arguments in the supreme court.
He also had an important part i'll
the city and county consolidation
suit.
AS city attorney during the Arnold
administration Bryant met and sue
~cessfully disposed of a variety of diff
ficult matters which confronted the
city. During the period when charges
were rife against many, the good
name of the city attorney remained
untouched by the breath of suspicion.
