Sudden Death

The Pastor of the Winnemucca Methodist Church Dies While on a Hunt

Last week Rev. J. C. Ambrose, Pastor of the M.E. Church, A. D. Wilcox, J. M.
Garrison and his stepson, W. H. Minor, and Charles Akin, left here, says the
Silver State, on a hunting trip to the Jackson Creek Mountains.  Last night
Willie Minor arrived in town, bringing the sad and startling intelligence that
Mr. Ambrose died Saturday night in camp.  The gentleman was quite portly, and
had traveled a good deal Saturday.  He ate some supper, complaining of feeling
tired, and remarking that he would have a good rest next day, meaning Sunday,
went to bed, and in a few  minutes died in a peaceful slumber.  His body was
brought to Abel’s wood camp yesterday, and will arrive here to-day.

Mr. Ambrose came here from Catalac, Michigan, about the 1st of October last, and
assumed the pastorate of the M. E. Church.  He was a man of much more than
ordinary ability, and was esteemed and respected by all who knew him.  He leaves
three children, whose ages ranges, from seven to eleven years, and an estimable
wife, who grief God alone can assuage.
