REMEMBER'
Mrs. Martha Cameron Fryer, one of
Nevada's most estimable women, died
at her home in this city last evening
about 6 o'clock, following an accident
which happened her a number of months
ago and which had confined her to her
bed ever since.
Mrs. Fryer was a native of Glasgow,
Scotland, where she was born May 15,
1836. She came to the United States at
the age of 21, and afyer a short sojourn
in New York came to San Francisco by
way of the Isthmus of Panama. She
was married at Placerville, April 28,
1859, and with her husband came to
Carson in the fall of 1864, this town
having since been her home. Her hus
band, who was prominent in business
circles in the early days, died in 1881
Surviving the deceased are three
daughters: Mrs. Annie E. Thompson,
Miss Martha C. Fryer and Mrs. Jessie
F. Watson, all of this city, and one son, j
George P. Fryer of Sacramento ; also
two grandchildren, Mrs. Harry Millard
of Reno and George D. Fryer of Sacra
mento. .
The funeral will take place Sunday
afternoon at 2 o'clock from the late
home of the deceased. Rev. H. H. Mc
Creery of the Presbyterian church will
conduct the services.
In her long residence in Carson Mrs.
Fryer had gained the affection and
friendship of everyone and all feel a
personal loss in her passing. To her
surviving relatives the sympathy of a
whole community is extended.

PAROLE BOARD AT PRISON
Mina was all agog the early days of
the week with excitement over the lat
est big strike reported from the Mariet
ta country, about twenty miles from
here. Jack Anderson and his partner,
owners of the C & A. group of five
claims, brought in to Mina for shipment
to Selby's. ten sacks of ore valued at
$3,000. This ore comes from a hole less
than six feet deep, and the vein has
been traced for a distance of 600 feet
from the strike and at that point ore is
now being sacked which assayed over
$500 per ton.
A touch of romance is associated with
the strike, by reason of the fact that
Anderson's partner is a well known
young lady of Mina, who, early last
spring, assisted him in preparing some
documents in connection with a claim
against the United States government.
Out of gratitude for this, Anderson
made the young lady, whose' name is
withheld for the present,' a full partner
in all claims he might stake, and what
this means to her is evidenced by the
fact that C. A. Noble, who owns some
ground close by the C. & A. group, has
offered her $25,000 cash for her interest
in the single claim on which the dis
covery was made.
