Sam Applegate has been a familiar person around town for years. He was a butcher by calling and was for a long while in the employ of Sawyer Bros. of the Pioneer Meat Market, Main street, but the last five or six years has followed the business of a tamale manufacturer and his wagon could be seen on the corner of Main and Canal streets nearly every night in the year. Sam was a law abiding citizen and his friends regret to learn of his death. He leaves a wife but no children. The funeral will take place today from his late residence.
