LEWIS PRICE IS CALLED TO HIS
REWARD.
In Lewis Price, Denver has lost
the last of its colored citizens who
at one time vied with any man in
this* city in their real estate dealings.
For several years he nas been in un
fortunate straits, and of late his mind
failed him. In the bitter cold of a
few weeks ago, he strayed outsidb
the city and was frozen. After treat
ment in the county hospital he failed
to improve, so that on Saturday he
passed away. The remains are in the
hands of the Douglass Undertakers.
The funeral will take place tomorrow
from Shorter church, of which he
was long a member and that church
is paying the funeral expenses. He
has long been possessed of a lot in
Riverside cemetery, where he will be
laid away.
Some years ago his wife passed
away, and his only child, a daughter,
left the city a few years ago to take
a place in the census department at
Washington. Her present where
abouts are unknown. Thus passes
away a man who at one time was
rated to be worth $200,000. He has
drunk deep of the successes of this
life and also of the dregs of misfor
tune. Even as late as a few years
ago, he was rated one of the best
judges of real estate values in this
city. His biggest deal of late years
was the purchase of the corner of
Sixteenth and Champa streets for
the May Clothing company. It will
come as news to many that before
the panic of 1893 he with a few other
colored men were themselves buyers
and sellers of such downtown prop
erty as that where the Equitable
building now stands. Mr. Price even
went so far as to build a building on
Welton street, which still bears his
name. Then, too, he owned the house
at Eighteenth and Sherman, occupy
ing it and employing several serv
ants.
During the pastorate of Rev. Phil
Hubbard at Shorter church at the
time when that congregation was ral
lying to pay off its mortgage on its
present building, he individually
gave SSOO.
His body is lying in state at the
Douglass Company’s parlors and will
until tomorrow’ at 1 o’clock. Already
several prominent white real estate
dealers have called there to inquire
concerning him, showing conclusive
ly that he was of such worth in the
days of his prosperity that even hi
adversity he was remembered.
