FRANK VOMECIL
April 27, 1899

Frank Vomecil, one of Yuma County's old timers died at Yuma 
about half past two o'clock Monday morning from the effects of 
lead poisoning. Mr. Vomicil had been ill for several years, 
seriously so for a twelvemonth past. He was the owner until 
recently of an exceedingly valuable group of producing lead 
mines at Castle Dome which he sold to W.D. Luce of Yuma who 
is now operating them. Vomicil took from them many thousands 
of dollars and finally sold them for a very large amount.  
His estate, which is extensive, was left equally to his 
brother in Austria and to John M. Sposse, sheriff of Yuma 
County who was his most intimate friend for many years and 
who added him financially and otherwise a great many times.
