Show MR. CHEESMAN'S DEATH. The death of Mr. M. .1. Chcosman was a surprise to the public, and especially espe-cially to the business world of Salt Lake, yesterday morning. He had not been sick at all, but had been around attending to his business as usual. The first notice that anj-thing was tho matter mat-ter with him wns tho notice of his death. It was a grievous shock to his family, anil will leave a void in man' places; and it will make tho third vacancy va-cancy on tho school board, by death, tho present year. It is remarkable to note tho fatalities that have so suddenly occurred among members of that board. First, Mr. Oborndorfer. a member from tho Fifth Ward, died on February 2G, 1909; then .Tudgo Henderson, from the same ward, died on .In no .'1, 1909; and now Mr. Cheosman, one of tho two members from tho Second Ward, is dead throo within the yoar. It is surprising indeed that throo out of a membership of ten should die within such a short poriod. Mr. Chocsman has been for a great many yenrs closely identified with tho business world of Ulah, and with the business activities, especially, of Salt Lake City. For a number of years past, howevor, he has not taken so active a general part as formerly, but has conducted his own business in excellent ex-cellent stylo and with an ability that was characteristic of all his financinl operations. His doath is a. sovore blow to his f amil', and to them tho sympathies sympa-thies of the wholo community go out in full measure. |
