Arizona Silver Belt
At Geronimo, January 25, F.B. Grannis was shot and killed by Jack O'Neil.
Grannis, it is said, got drunk and spent all his money and the bartender refused
him more whiskey. He went out and returning shortly afterwards met O'Neil in
front of the saloon and O'Neil shot him. It is said the two men had a row the
night before. No further particulars could be learned.  Jack O'Neil was for
years a constable at Fort Thomas and may be employed in that capacity yet.

A Los Angeles dispatch of January 26, to the Examiner says: A telegram was
received by Chief of Police Glass from Geronimo Ariz. stating that F.B. Grannis
who claimed to have a wife and child in Los Angles, was killed there Saturday
night. None of the Grannis relatives could be found but it was learned that
there was a bicycle agent named F.R. Grannis residing in San Francisco who might
be the man referred to.
