Placerville where the most of his life was spent.  In 1877 he was married to
Jennie McKinney (sic) who survives  him.

There are also four sons, Lawrence, of Arizona, and James, Leonard, and Fred of
this city.  Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Richards, the parents of the deceased are also
living and residents of Placerville.  There are three sisters of Mr. Richards
living--Mrs. Eustace of Gilroy, and Mrs. Waymouth and Mrs. S. Alderson of this
city.

The deceased was a member of Morning Star Lodge, No. 30., I.O.O.F.  The funeral
will take place Sunday afternoon, at 2 o'clock p.m., April 21, 1901, from the
family residence near the depot.
