NATHANIEL B. CARSON, LOCAL DRUGGIST, DIES
Had Charge of Hester Pharmacy at Time of Demise. Partner in S.J. Stores
Opened Drug Business Here 35 Years Ago – Veteran of Civil War

Nathaniel B. Carson, for many years one of the proprietors of the Carson & 
Riley Drug Store at Second and Santa Clara Streets, and earlier part owner of a 
drug store at First and San Fernando Streets, died at home in the Willows 
yesterday afternoon after an extended illness due mainly to his advanced years. 
Decedent was 76 years of age, and for the past three years had charge of the 
Hester Drug Store.

It was at the Hester establishment that he fell from a chair while lighting the 
gas three years ago. In his fall he sustained injuries from which he never 
fully recovered and which were in part responsible for his demise. 

Mr. Carson fought in the Civil War, and was a member of the Grand Army of the 
Republic. He was born in Maryland and came to California 36 years ago, settling 
in this city almost immediately. Shortly after his arrival he started in the 
drug business and for 20 years was established at the locations given. He 
leaves a host of business and close personal friends to mourn his loss. He 
leaves two daughters, Mrs. Emma Luckhardt of San Francisco and Mrs. H.F. Coe of 
San Jose. 

No funeral arrangements have as yet been made.
