"ANTHONY, J.G.
No Marker - Died Jan 8, 1901 - Age 24 Years
J.G., who had lived in Silverton several months, died at 6:00 pm on a Wednesday (Jan 9, 1901 was a Wednesday). There could be no doubt he had a predisposition to liver trouble, and that susceptibility was intensified by exposure in an extremely cold ride from Ouray to Silverton on January 2nd, and a severe chill after reaching Silverton. The cause of death was described as rupture of the hepatic artery following abscess of the liver.
Rev. George Eaves furnished information that J.G. was a native of Cincinnati, Ohio, and had previously worked in Salt Lake City, Utah, and in Montana as a chemist. In Silverton, Kendrick and Gelder had secured his services as an assayer for their new smelter some weeks before the plant blew in and he was still in their employ at the time of his death.
J.G. was considered a clean, courteous, capable and honorable man. Great sympathy was felt throughout the community for the bereaved family in Cincinnati and friends in Salt Lake City. No other information was found."
