LAS VEGAS AGE
12/21/1912

DIED

PAUFF: - In this city, Saturday morning, December 21, 1912, Arthur N. 
PAUFF, aged 39 years.
    The above brief announcement marks the sorrowful passing of one of 
the foremost citizens of Las Vegas.
    He was born in Weston, Ohio.  Prior to his removal to Vegas he was 
engaged in business in Phoenix, Arizona, where he met and married 
Margaret LANCASTER.
    Coming here at the birth of the city he has been an active factor in 
its business life.  A member of the Masonic order, the Eastern Star, the 
Elks, Phoenix 330, he was a leading spirit in the good works of all.
    Most sad, indeed, is the loss to the sorrowing family.  He leaves 
surviving him his widow, Margaret LANCASTER PAUFF, two sons, Harry and 
Arthur, aged about eleven and nine years respectfully, his father and 
mother, Mr. and Mrs. Peter PAUFF, a brother, Owen PAUFF, and a sister, 
Mrs. T. E. FREDERICKS.
    To the stricken ones we can only express our profound sorrow and 
deepest sympathy, with the hope that in their anguish there may come to 
their hearts the comfort of the thought, "He knoweth all things best.
