The Saco Independent (MT), 24 May 1912

Old Timer Passes Away

The community was called on last Thursday to mourn the loss of one of the old residents in the person of William W. Mason.
William Walter Mason was born in Columbus, Ohio, in the year 1873 on the 14th of May and died at Glasgow on the 20th of May, making him thirty-nine years and six days of age.
The deceased came to Montana in the year 1895 and was located near Malta for a number of years from where he came to Saco and engaged in the cattle business, which business he followed until the time of his death.
He was taken sick four years ago last fall and since that time has traveled extensively for his health, but none of the physicians appeared to know exactly what to do to relieve him, and finally he went to the Central hospital in Glasgow about three weeks ago and appeared to be getting along nicely until he had an attack of acute indigestion which caused his death.
He was united in the holy bonds of matrimony to Miss Minnie Taylor, of Saco, on the first day of January 1906.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Minnie Mason; three brothers, James H., of Potlatch, Idaho, Claude Mason, of Monterano, Wash., and R.B. Mason, of Devone, Kan., also one sister, Mrs. C.A. Kimball, of Foxholm, Minn.
Owing to the suddenness of his death, only one brother and sister were able to be present, Mrs. C.A. Kimball and James H. Mason. Rev. Walker of Glasgow conducted the funeral services from the M.E. church, the remains being laid to rest in Saco cemetery.
