W. W, DAVISDIES OF FEVER.
FORMER DAWSON CITIZEN A VICTIM
OF THE YELLOW SCOURGE.
Passed Away in San Antonio, Texas,
After Short lliness. News Received
With Profound Sorrow.
News was received in Dawson Thurs
day of the death of Mr. Walter W.
Davis in San Antonio, Texas, whose
illness with yellow fever was mention
ed in last week’s News.
The sad message was received with
the profoundest sorrow here, where he
was known to a host of friends and had
spent much of his lite. His brother,
Mr. W. H. Davis of this city, left Fri
day morning for San Antonio, and a
telegram from him Monday stated that
the body was buried there Sunday af
ternoon.
Mr. Dayis had only been ill six days
when the end came. Relatives 1n Daw
son received a telegramsjust after he
was taken with yellow fever, adyising
them of his having the disease and
that he was in a precarious condition.
The attack rwas a very violent one,
and his relatives were notified the day
previous to his death that there was
no possible hope for him. The end
came Thursday shortly before noon.
Mr. Davis was at one time connected
with the firm of the Sale-Davis Drug
Company, with stores in Dawson and
Albany, and-sold out his interest in
that business to go to San Antonio
several years ago, hoping that his
health would benefited by the change.
After going to that city he became one
of the leading druggists there, being a
member of the firm:of Fisher & Davis.
About a year ago he severed his con
nection with that enterprise to go into
the ranch business, {in which he was
engaged at the time of his last illness.
He is survived by a wife, who was
formerly Miss Eva Keith of this city,
and a baby. His mother and two
brothers, Messrs. W. H. and J. H.
Davis, are his immediate; surviving
relatives in Dawson. He was an up
right, generous and conscientious cit
izen, and was respected and esteemed
by eyery one who knew him.
The sympathy of the entire commu
nity goes out to the bereaved ones in
theirsorrow.
If you want the very beet you will
ask your dealer for Peters loaded
shells and cartridges.
