In addition to his widow, Mrs. Lorena C. EGLINGTON, the deceased leaves surviving him two daughters, Mrs. Dora E. LEE of this city and Mrs. Chas. G. STINDT of Pioche. The EGLINGTONS were residents of Vegas for several years during which time Mr. EGLINGTON was engaged in the development of the fine ranch property which he owned northwest of this city. The family moved to Burbank where they have since resided about three years ago. Mr. EGLINGTON was a lovable character and his many friends in this city will learn of his death with sincere regret.
