Commissioner Webber’s Sudden Death from the Bursting of a Blood-Vessel
County Commissioner William Webber of Virginia died last evening at 7:30 o’clock
from the bursting of a blood vessel in the region of the heart.
The Enterprise contains the following:  Last evening, while at his residence, he
went out to split up some kindling wood.  After working a short time, he came
into the house complaining of a great pain about the heart.  Dr. Conn was sent
for, and on his arrival saw that there was no hope.  His patient was then dying,
and lived but a few minutes.
Deceased was a native of Cologne, Prussia, and was fifty-seven years of age.  He
came to the United States forty years ago, and had resided on the Comstock for
over twenty years.  He leaves a wife in this city, but no children.  Except his
wife, he left no relatives in this country.  He was a member of Silver Star
Lodge, No. 5, F. & A. M., and also of the Royal Arch Chapter.
His funeral will take place tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon at 2 o’clock.
