Death of Henry Mack.
News of Henry Mack's death, which occurred in Canon City a couple of days ago, was received in Salida last evening and caused a feeling of sorrow among his many friends in this town. Thursday's Canon City Express says:
"The news of Henry Mack's death is a shock to the whole community. The universal expressions of sympathy testify to the esteem in which he was held by all of the citizens. To accommodate his many friends, who wish to pay their last tribute of respect to his memory, the Methodist church has kindly been offered for the services. They will probably be held at two o'clock in the afternoon tomorrow."
Mr. Mack had been sick but a short time, we understand the cause of his death being pneumonia, which is so frequently fatal in this country.
Henry Mack was one of the early settlers in Salida. In fact he came here, as did many of our prominent business men, from the town of Cleora when it was moved up here bodily nearly two years ago. He engaged in the lumber and hardware trade, the house here being a branch of his business at Canon City. He was a man who had little to say and attended strictly to his own business, a good man whose death is a loss to the community in which he lived. Though it has been several months since he closed out his business in this town there are many warm friends here who deplore his death.
In Memoriam
