MRS. LORENZO BULL ROLAND
Feb. 19, 1909

Mrs. Lorenzo Bull Roland died at her apartments in the Hotel
Adams at 9:10 o'clock last night. At 4 o'clock yesterday
afternoon she seemed to be in the best of spirits and in perfect
health. At 4:30 she retired to her room to dress for dinner
and was suddenly taken sick. Two hours before her death she
became unconscious and remained so until the end. The cause
of death was a very sudden and acute attack of bright's disease.
Mr. and Mrs. Roland were planning to leave on that evening's
train for Cincinnati via New Orleans. Their tickets were bought,
trunks packed and everything in readiness when the fatal seizure
came.

That the incident created great surprise among the friends of
the family who learned of it last night, may well be imagined
for no one had suspected that Mrs. Roland's carrier would be
ended for many years to come. During the few short months she
had lived here she had endeared herself to all who made her
acquaintance and though she was yet a comparative stranger in
the city she had taken a lively interest in such things as
would appeal to an energetic and good woman. She had gained
a local reputation already for her kindly courtesies and
charities to many sick and suffering and in some instances
for the relief of actual necessities.

Mr. and Mrs. Roland came here from Chicago, which is their
home, and Mr. Roland is well known in business circles. Their
object was to visit their son.

Mrs. Roland's maiden name was Lillian S. Noonan. She was a
native of Tiffin Ohio where she was born forty eight years ago.
She is survived by her husband and two children. George N.
Roland, the son, came here a year and a half ago for his health
and is 29 years old. He is residing on a ranch close to town.
Mrs. P.D. Lowell, her daughter and wife of Mr. Lowell, the
manager of the Hotel Adams, was present when the end came.
Mrs. Roland's two brothers reside in Cincinnati, Thomas H.
Noonan, being the general manager of the Central States
Dispatch and Terrance A. Noonan the general traveling agent
for the same firm.

The interment of Mrs. Roland will be in the family lot in
Chicago and for that purpose Mr. Roland will leave today
accompanying the body.

THOMAS T. ROSS
April 2, 1909

Thomas T. Ross died yesterday morning at the Sisters hospital.

here from South Dakota where a brother of his now lives. He
is survived by a mother and a sister and two brothers who live
in Scotland. Ross was formerly a cattleman in Dakota and came
here on account of ill health. He was about 45 years of age.

June 25, 1909

W.C. Rothell died Wednesday at his home on East Van Buren
Street after a lingering illness and the funeral will be
held this afternoon at 5 o'clock in the parlors of Easterling
and Whitney. Deceased was twenty one years old and was not a
married man, being survived only by mother, sisters and
grandmother in his former home in Philadelphia. A sister
who was here with him died last winter.

GEORGE N. ROWLAND
June 6, 1909

After an illness of several years George N. Rowland, a brother-
in-law of P.D. Lowell, manager of the Hotel Adams died at the
Sisters hospital yesterday morning.

Mr. Rowland originally came from Chicago but has been at the
coast for several years. A few months ago he came to Phoenix
hoping to be bettered by the change of climate. The young man's
mother and father and sister were here at the time. Not very
long after the marriage of Miss Rowland and Manager Lowell,
Mrs. Rowland died of nephritis. Mr. Rowland then broke up
housekeeping and went back to Indiana where he is now.

The arrangements of the funeral have not been made.

FRANK RUBOTTOM
January 8, 1909

There are many in Phoenix who will be pained to learn of the
death of Frank Rubottom, at the home of his parents, Rev. and
Mrs. E.C. Rubottom in Corpus Christi, on Jan. 1, the news being
received here yesterday. The deceased was well known in Phoenix
which was his home for a year and a half previous to six weeks
ago. He came to Phoenix frequently before settling here in his
business of clothing salesman and found so many friends here
and like the town so well he decided to stay. During the last
six months of his residence here he was employed in the store
of Goldberg Brothers. He was also very active in church
circles and made a wide acquaintance for one of so short a
residence in the city. It is known that he was suffering of
a lung affection and though nothing has been learned of the
cause of his death it is supposed it was the final issue of
tuberculosis.

JOSEPH RUIZ
November 19, 1909

The dead body of Joseph Ruiz, a Mexican section hand employed
at P and E Junction, was found yesterday morning near the SFP&P
railroad track about three miles north of the city, by the crew
of passenger train No. 3 which reported the discovery. Justice
of the Peace, McLane was at once notified and after summoning a
coroner's jury he immediately left for the scene of the discovery.

Having become alarmed on account of his brother not showing up
for work, Santo Ruiz, also a section hand at the same point,
arrived here in the afternoon in search of his brother, not
knowing he was dead.

The report of the coroner's jury was that the deceased had
come to his death from exposure to the cold.

EARL SAGE
Jan. 25, 1909

Earl M. Sage, at the home of his parents in Parker Ariz. Feb.
1909, aged 18 years, died.

Earl M. Sage, son of Mr. and Mrs. C.M. Sage was born in the
city of Los Angeles, Dec. 3, 1889. He was an apt student and
was attending the high school of the city when he was attacked
with his fatal malady. Young Sage was a lover of outdoor sports
and athletics. In a motorcycle trip to Mount Wilson, in company
with others, the weather proved inclement, brought on a
hemorrhage which rapidly developed into tuberculosis. Earl
was a dutiful son and brother without any vices usually
acquired by boys grown to city environments. His parents
tried to recoup his failing health by visiting the best
health resorts on the coast, finally coming to Arizona in
March of last year. Phoenix and Wickenburg were made temporary
homes, but their permanent home was made in Parker. During
the heated term of last summer he was taken back to the coast,
but returned. The bereaved family have the sympathy of
everyone in Parker. Burial will be in Parker Cemetery.

MRS. ROSARIO SANCHEZ
April 2, 1909

Wendendale- Mrs. Rosario Sanchez who has been ill the past
month died at the age of 103 years. She was buried today in
the Wendendale cemetery. Her death deprives her two
grandchildren, Carmelita and Chonita, of a faithful guardian.

GEORGE SAYERS
August 11, 1909

Wickenburg--George Sayers was loading a wagon of merchandise
from his general store at Sayersville yesterday for
transportation to Octave when suddenly the explosion of a
shotgun rang out. A number of old timers who were in the
store ran out and found Mr. Sayers lying on the ground with
one side almost torn away and covered with blood. He was
rushed in a critical condition to Octave, a distance of
about seven miles where there is a surgeon. Mr. Sayers
always kept a loaded gun at thte bottom of his wagon and
it is surmised that while loading up he struck the hammer
with a box of merchandise causing it to explode.

George Sayers is a prince of a good fellow. It is known
that he never had turned away a wanderer of the hills who
was really in want.

RALPH W. SCALES
April 25, 1909

Word was received yesterday by Phoenix relatives and friends
of the death of Ralph W. Scales at the Agnes Memorial
sanitarium in Denver where he has been since last July under
treatment for lung trouble.

In 1907 Mr. Scales was the financial agent of the Hercules
Mining Company near Wendendale, in which both he and his father
were heavily interested. In June of that year he married Miss
Beatrice Williscroft of this city, being then a strong and
healthy young man. They took a wedding trip east, going first
to Chicago and then to the Jamestown exposition and New York.
In the course of this journey he contracted a severe cold that
by the time they had reached New York city had developed into a
severe case of pneumonia. He never fully recovered from it, but
as soon as he was able to travel he came back to Arizona and
resumed his duties at the mine.

There was only temporary improvement and he soon began to fail
rapidly, gaining for a short time, then growing worse again.
Last July he went to the sanitarium in Denver and for a time
seemed to improve, but got worse again and about six weeks ago
was seized with hemorrhages, again sinking gradually until the
end. The father and wife of Mr. Scales were with him during
his last hours. The body will be taken to Chicago for interment.

Deceased was thirty four years old and was well known in
Phoenix and western Arizona and was highly esteemed by all
his acquaintances.
