OBITUARY: ARIZONA JOURNAL-MINER, 4 February 1904
Word was received in Prescott today of the death of Ed L. Gobin, which took place this morning at Crown King, where the deceased has lived for many years.
The deceased was one of the best known mill and mining men in this part of the county, having been in Yavapai county for about thirty years, a great many of which were spent in active mining work. He has been identified with some of the biggest mining enterprises in the county, and was in charge of the famous Peck Mine in her balmy days. Several years ago he became too feeble to longer work at the mining business and since that time has conducted a saloon at Crown King.
The only known relatives that he leaves in this part of the country is a wife, who has carefully nursed him in his last days. He has been failing very fast for some time until the end came this morning. He was 74 years of age. A casket was sent out to Crown King today and the funeral will be held at his home tomorrow and the remains will be laid to rest in the bosom of the mighty mountains where he lived and worked for so many years.
