Rock Springs Miner no. 29, July 16, 1896
Sudden Death.
Mr. Lewis Davis, aged about 73 years, father of Mrs. Ward and Mrs. Warburton, died suddenly this afternoon. Not one of his relatives had the least idea that the end was near. Last night he slept in the store, but getting up at two o'clock in the morning he went to his daughter's house, complaining that he did not feel well. He was up and down during the forenoon and half an hour before he died he went outside for a few moments. Upon re-entering the house he stretched himself upon the bed and he was in this position when the spark of life left him. Mrs. Ward went in to speak to him and she was horrified to find him speechless and dead. Heart failure is supposed to be the cause of his unexpected death.
The MINER is authorized to state that the funeral will take place at the Mormon church at two o'clock on Saturday afternoon and all friends of the deceased are invited to attend.
