HIRAM H. LINVILLE
July 29, 1893
Hiram H. Linville, a pioneer, died at his residence south of
the city yesterday morning. He was 65 years of age and had
resided in the territory since 1876. There were few men in
the valley better known and certainly none more highly
respected. He had been an invalid for many years and was
seldom seen in the city, but his name has been familiar as
the donator of the Linville Addition to the city.
His wife died in 1871 but a large family of children mourn
his loss. Of these three reside in or near the city: Robert,
Mrs. J.D. Monihon and Mrs. A.E. Cobb and Mrs. J.A. Lutgerding.
The others are Mrs. M.E. Naylor, Mrs. W.E. Williams, Miss
Violet Linville and Thomas N. Linville. There are two
sisters residing in California and a brother at Cave Creek.
The interment will take place at 4 o'clock this after under
the direction of W.H. Smith and Company. The deceased was
born in Gentry County Missouri and in 1850 came to the coast.
He has been successful in the accumulation of wealth and
some years ago was a member of the Board of Supervisors of
the county.

last at the home of her daughter, Mrs. J.C. Kraigbaum.

by a coroner's jury to be heart disease.
SHERIFF LOWERY
JERRY BARTON
January 10, 1893
A stage driver yesterday morning brought word but no
particulars of the killing of Sheriff Lowery, a deputy
sheriff and Jerry Barton near Prescott last Saturday
morning. It is said that the sheriff and his deputy were
trying to arrest Barton when the latter resisted and shot
both fatally and was himself killed by one of the men.
The rumor is doubted on the grounds that news of such an
event would have previously reached here by telegraph.
Sheriff Murphy yesterday afternoon telegraphed to Prescott
but late last night had received no reply.
Barton is well known in Phoenix having in an early day
run a saloon. He is distinguished for having killed four
men by breaking their necks. Two were killed before he
came to the Territory, one in Phoenix and another in
Bisbee. For the Bisbee killing Barton was sent to Yuma
for ten years but was pardoned out. Two witnesses of
the killing here were seen yesterday by a Republican
reporter. They said Barton was leaning against a
hitching post engaged in conversation. A young man
approached him from behind and put his hand on his
shoulder and made some jocular remark. The young
man still kept his hand on Barton's shoulder when
the latter without looking around threw his open hand
back and struck the young man on the side of the neck.
The young man fell dead and an examination showed that
his neck was broken. The witnesses say that the action
of Barton was not a blow, but rather a push which did
not appear to be a particularly vigorous one and he
clearly had no intention of injuring the victim.
Another report says that Sheriff Lowery was not killed
but that he killed Barton after the latter had fatally
shot two deputies.
J.D. McCOLLUM
April 20, 1893
J.D. McCollum, a printer, died yesterday morning at the
Gregory house and was buried yesterday afternoon under
the direction of the printers of Phoenix. He came here
from North Carolina last summer and found work when his
health permitted on the various city papers. He spent
some time at the county hospital, but a few weeks ago
the printing fraternity took charge of him and greatly
softened his last days.
Mr. McHORNBROOK
August 1, 1893
A stranger named McHornbrook died suddenly about noon on
Sunday in Burger's corral. Just before he breathed his last
he was noticed and Dr. Dameron was summoned, too late,
however, to be of assistance. Those about the corral knew
almost nothing of the dead man except that he had been
apparently in ill health, suffering from what he believed
to be heart disease and that he was given to the excessive
use of liquor. He had, in fact, the night before his death
been drinking heavily of peppermint and whiskey.
An inquest was held before Justice Wharton yesterday.
The jury was made of M.B. Cox, Dave Goldberg, W. George,
H.H. Wharton, R.F. Kirkland and S.L. Redwine.
The first witness was D.F. Watkins, manager of Bernard's
saloon. He said the deceased had been in the saloon frequently;
had been there the night before and had been engaged in a
quarrel which nearly ended in a fight. He was about forty
five years old but the witness did not know his name. As
soon as he heard a man had died at Burger's corral the
witness went to see him, thinking he might have been a
stranger who had been in the saloon the day before and
threatened suicide and had tried to get behind the bar
to get a revolver for that purpose.
Dan McRae had seen him lying in the corral early in the
morning. That was when he first saw another man with him.
He saw him again about half past twelve. His hands and face
were blue and he was breathing heavily.
J.C.C.H. Boone saw him on Sunday morning come into the corral
alone and lie down beside another man who afterward got up
and went away. When he came into the corral the deceased
was heavily intoxicated.
Joseph Hanson was also present when he died, having come up
when his attention was called to the fact that a man was
dying. He knew little about the deceased except that his
name was McHornbrook; that he had been in town about six
weeks, was a engineer by trade and was in ill health.
The deceased was recognized by Dave Goldberg as a man named
McHorbrook, to whom he had recently sold some goods.
The jury found that the deceased came to his death from
natural causes.
There was found upon the body $1.85. It was learned that
he had a brother living at Silver City, New Mexico and a
telegram was sent there. Word was received from the
Marshall of Silver City, that the brother, a wealthy
ranchman lived about thirty miles from town and that
word had been sent to him. No reply was received late
yesterday afternoon and the remains were buried.
