Borie: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nearly everyone who has lived in Hinsdale County any length of time, knows William H Borie, and all will be sorry to learn of his death, which occurred at this place, at noon of Tuesday, February 25, 1896. The deceased had been sufferer for the last two or three years with asthma, brought on working in the mines, and which finally developed into miner's consumption. Mr Borie was born August 5, 1840 [Maryland] and was 55 years, 6 months, and 20 days at time of his death. He came to Lake City about twenty-one years ago. The Funeral services were held in the Baptist Church yesterday afternoon at 2 o'clock, after which the remains were buried in the City Cemetery.

He was apparently a Civil War Veteran, possibly Navy, buried, I'm told, in unmarked grave.
