The announcement of the death of Frank Leslie, which occurred at 4 o'clock this morning, will be sad news to his many friends and acquaintances. Frank was only sick a few days with typhoid pneumonia, and his death was unexpected. He was 22 years old, and the pride and joy of his parents. Notice of funeral later.

Frank, aged 22 years, son of Mr. and Mrs. George Leslie, died at his parental home, Jersey street, between Second and Third, at 4 o'clock yesterday morning, of typhoid fever.

Deceased worked for a long time at the Gem City File Works, Broadway, until his health became undermined. For a month or more, he was, until taken sick last week, engaged as day clerk at the Pacific House.

He was not strong then, but Mr. Moecker assisted him in his work, and did all in his power to lighten the young man's work. Even after Frank was compelled to take to his bed, the Pacific House proprietor did what he could for him.

Everybody who knew him speaks highly of the dead. He was well liked, and his death makes a void in the family and acquaintance circles that will not soon be filled.

The funeral will take place tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock, from the family residence. Friends are invited to attend.
