Pioneer Dies Suddenly From Paralytic Stroke
PROVO, March 27.--Daniel Vincent, pioneer of 1852, died at his home on West Center street this afternoon following a stroke of paralysis which he suffered this morning. Mr. Vincent was born in Caridd, South Wales, April 11, 1840. When a boy he accompanied his parents to Utah, crossing the plains with Captain Jolley's ox-team company. The family came directly to Provo, where Mr. Vincent had lived most of his life.
In 1881 he was called by the church authorities to assit in the colonization of St. Johns, Ariz. On account of ill health he was forced to retire from the work there, and returned to Provo where he had since lived. He was a member of the high priests' quorum of the Mormon church. He also was a Black Hawk Indian War veteran, being identified with the Abraham Conover company.
Mr. Vincent is survived by his widow, Marion Parks Vincent; one son, Daniel P. Vincent, and two daughters, Mrs. Gean V. Peay and Mrs. Marion Kate Andreason, both of Provo.
Funeral services will be held in the Pioneer ward chapel Friday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock. Friends may view the body at the residence prior to the services. Interment will be in the Provo City cemetery under the direction of the Berg mortuary.
