OBITUARY: The Manti Messenger, Thursday 24 Sept 1903:
JOHN BRAITHWAITE DEAD.

Every one knew John Braithwaite, with old and young he was a favorite. Having reached his 81st birthday, he passed to the great beyond at noon on Sunday, Sept. 20th, loved and respected by all who knew him.

Mr. Braithwaite was born in Kendall, Westmoreland, England, and lived there until he came to Utah. Deceased was a member of the "Mormon" church, having been baptized when 18 years of age. Some years after his arrival in Manti his wife died. Mr. Braithwaite was a shoemaker and wood carver by trade. During the past few years he has worked at his trade as shoemaker and the sign on Main street, "John Braithwaite, shoemaker," is familiar to all.

Funeral services were held in the council house yesterday afternoon. A large number of relatives and friends were present to pay their last respects to the departed.
