FAMOUS OLD GRAND
CANYON GUIDE DEAD

Captain John Hance, the man
who claimed to have headed the
work of constructing the famous
Grand Canyon, aud with the ex-
cavation debris therefrom erect
ed the lofty Frisco Peaks north
of Flagstaff, has passed to the
Great Beyond. The captain had
been ailing for a year or more
and a short time ago suffered a
paralytic stroke, being brought
to Flagstaff and placed in a hos
pital where he died Monday af-
ternoon.
Captain Hance was born in
the state of Missouri in 1884,
coming to Arizona more than.
forty years ago. He arrived at
the Grand Canyon in 1882 where
he built himself a log cabin, and
shortly thereafter constructed the
first trail to the bottom of the
Canyon. He was a prevaricator
of the Baron Manchausen class,
all of his stories" not being
told with the intention of being
believed, and most of them tend
ing toward experiences and en-
counters in or near the Canyon.
He leaves one brother, Geo.
W. Hance, a prominent stock
man of the Verde in Yayapai
county, and a brother in Mis-
souri,. Although "a years of age
he was never married.

while skating on the ice last Sat-

the use of force, declaring that
among the people the govern

of force unnecessary, He was
finally convinced, however, that
another way would have to be
chosen to put down Bolshevikism
