W.E. GUILD
Oct 27, 1893

A telegram was received here yesterday announcing the death at 
Florence night before last of W.E. Gulid. The deceased had been 
ill of typhoid fever for about two weeks and in the latter part 
of last week was thought to be convalescing.  A relapse occurred 
last Saturday and hope of his recovery was abandoned.

The deceased was not far from fifty years of age and had resided 
in the territory nearly a quarter of a century. He leaves a 
wife and two children.  At the time of his death he was 
operator of the Florence Telegraph Line and was one of its 
chief owners.  He was also agent for the Florence Stage Line 
and a trusted financial agent for a large number of poeple of 
Pinal County.  He had been cashier of the Florence Bank and 
had held many other positions of trust and honor. He was also a 
mason of high standing and his funeral which will take place at 
4 o'clock today will be under the direction of that order.  
Among those from Pheonix who will be present is Judge Joseph 
H. Kibbey, for years a warm friend of the deceased.
