FRANK DAUGHERTY
Arizona Republican Newspaper
January 1, 1895

Frank Daugherty who had lately been employed at a grading camp 
on the north and south road was killed last Sunday on the Agua 
Fria.  He had quit work and was assisting employes of Captain 
George in bringing a lot of horses to Pheoinx. When they reached 
the Agua Fria the river was rising rapidly from the heavy rain 
of last Saturday night. Daugherty missed the crossing and was 
swept from his horse.  He succeeded in clutching an overhanging 
limb but it gave way and he sank benearth the ucrrent and was 
seen no more.  Within fifteen minutes the water rose three feet 
so that an attempt to recover the body was believed to be useless.

Daugherty had on his person $200 and a valuable gold watch.
