Obituary: Fatal Illness Overtakes Good Man. Captain M'Mahon Ends Life At Zonia From A Stroke of Paralysis; Aged 81 Years.
News of the death of Captain Charles McMahon has been received in Prescott, the end coming at Zonia last week. The fatal affliction was paralysis, which overcame this worthy resident, as he was stepping out of his home, and without the slightest warning. Although the deceased had reached the ripe age of 81 years, his wonderful physical vigor attracted admiration, and his health was said to be perfect.
Captain McMahon was identified with valuable mining properties in the Zonia section, and with his two sons had been actively developing in recent years. He was considered an authority in this business, and his practical effort was highly regarded by mining engineers. Personally, he made many friends through his genial disposition, and very much sorrow is expressed over his loss. He is survived by his two sons, who were with him, and a widow, who resides at Denver. Burial was given in Kirkland cemetery.
