Death of Pioneer Tombstone Citizen
The many friends of Mr. Sampson Simmons will be pained to learn that the well known pioneer died at his home in Tombstone. He was 12 years of age and first came to Tombstone in 1880. He later worked at various camps through the southwest and a few years ago contracted tuberculosis which was the cause of death. Deceased was a man of sterling worth and possessed of many qualities that endeared him to all who knew him. He was an honored member of the order of 10. 0. F. with which he was identified for many years standing and under whose auspices the funeral will be held. The time for the funeral has not yet been announced, awaiting advices from relatives who will attend the funeral. A devoted wife and three children are left to mourn the death of the pioneer, to whom the sympathy of the community is extended.
