A PIONEER PASSES AWAY

It is with profound regret that the people of the county were notified of the death of Abraham Brower, father of County Commissioner Brower, on Tuesday last. He was an old man, having reached the annual mark of 85 years. For many years he has been a resident of Yuma county, and a man who made many friends who will join in mourning his loss and extending their sympathy to the bereaved family of the son.
