James Larrison, aged 74, died at his home in the Third ward this morning at 7:45, after a lingering illness. He had been very low for the past three weeks and several days ago hope of his recovery was abandoned. He has been unable to retain any nourishment, but even at his advanced age his powerful constitution was apparent and he retained his mental faculties, remaining conscious up to the time of his death, and even after he was too weak to speak by movements he made known that he was still conscious. A few days ago he and his wife celebrated their golden wedding anniversary, at which time their children were present, and Mr. Larison arose from a sick bed and a picture of four generations was taken. He leaves surviving him his widow, two sons and two daughters. He has relatives living in Illinois and other places in the north. The Larison family is one of the pioneer families of central Illinois, where a number of their descendants still remain. Many years ago James Larison, who died today, moved to Kansas, where he resided several years, coming from there to the territory, and was one of the early settlers of this city, where he has been well and favorably known for all that time. A brother in Illinois has been advised by wire of his death and the funeral arrangements will not be completed until word is received from him. If he comes he can reach here at 1 o'clock tomorrow afternoon when the funeral will be held. If he is not coming and it is so learned, then the funeral will be tomorrow forenoon.
