TONOPAH PIONEER DIES FROM
INJURIES SUSTAINED IN RUNAWAY

Mrs. Thomas ]. Lynch was sudden
ly called to Oakland this morning by
a telegram announcing the death of
Thomas E. Edwards, her father at
Fabiola hospital in Oakland. Death
was due to injuries sustained in a
runaway accident that occurred last
Sunday near st. Helena, California.
First advices stated the patient was
improving but on Tuesday he gave
signs of failing but even then the
symptoms were not of a nature to
cause any alarm and when death
came at an early hour this morning
it was wholly unexpected.
Mr. Edwards was So years of age,
born and reared in Nevada where he
amassed a fortune in mining and mer-
chandising and was regarded as a
man of unusually sound judgment. He
always relied on his own estimate of
business matters and to this remark
able concentration he ascribed his
success. In the early days he kept
store in Taylor and Pioiche and
later was an active promoter in the
vicinity of Delamar wnere he loca-
ted the April Fool. Coming to Tono-
pah in 1901 he at once pronounced
this camp the best he had seen and
predicted that it would be one of the
great producers of the country. Soon
after arrival he bought the lot now
occupied by the Toggery on Main
street for $500 and embarked in the
grocery business. When the Gold
field boom broke out he went over to
that town and was one of the locators
of the vinegorone fraction which
turned out one of the richest pieces of
