Geo. w. Webster was born in Gwer-
lane, Derbyshire, England, January
81, 1850. He left England at the
age of fifteen years and came to
America in November 1865. He work
ed few months in railroad shops
until May 1866 coming West with
the building of the Union Pacific
Railroad and was employed by the
company as hunter and also work
ed on the railroad and landed in
Salt Lake City in the spring of1867;
stayed in that section until about Aug
ust OF that year, then came further
West and arrived at the old mining
camp OF Silver Peak in September.
1867 He then moved to Pinegrove
in July, 1868 and went on the East
Walker River ranch i'll september
He lived on the ranch, working it
with his brother Alfred, now of Cal
ifornia as his partner for many years
The business prospered and in Feb
ruary 1894 it was to the ranch home
that he took his bride, Gertrude Willis
Webster, who is left with their two
daughters. Mrs. Lillian Churchyard
and Mrs. Violet Mcleod to mourn
his absence. Two brothers besides
Alfred survive and one sister as well
as four grandchildren.
He was naturalized in Aurora, Es-
meralda County, 1871 and was made
Mason December 1881, to which
order he has belonged ever since.
In 1911 he moved with his family
to Yerington and became cashier OF
the Lyon County Bank of which
he was one of the organizers i'll 1905
III health compelled him to abandon
the work in January 1919, but he was
still a director at the time of his
death. During the years he was in
charge his conservative policies did
much to establish the bank in the con-
i! fdence of depositors and business
men.
A good business man has gone from
our midst. a firm friend, a devoted
husband and loving father. In the
fullness OF years he has been gathered
to his fathers and his grave presence
will be missed by all. Another OF
the sturdy pioneers has answered the
last call and discovered the great mys-
terry.
The funeral will be held Sunday
afternoon under the auspices of Hope
| Lodge. F, & A. NJ. at Rink Hall, at
two O'Clock when the people of this
valley will assemble to pay the last
honors to the man who was always
| good friend, just and fair in his deal
| ;ngs. unfailing in his kindness to ole
and young alike.
