Figure of West Passes Away
Benjamin Studley, Prominent Stockman of California is Called
A splendid career was ended yesterday when Benjamin F. Studley, a pioneer of
California, passed away at his home at 1901 Sierra street. Death overtook him at
6:30 o’clock, closing a life of usefulness and numbering one more prominent
figure in the life of the west.
The deceased was a native of Maine and came to California in 1858.  He settled
in Lassen county, where he has been known as one of the prominent stockman of
that section.  The record of his life carries many stories of the west and his
biography would furnish an illuminating page in the history of the settlement of
the Pacific coast.
He came to Reno nine months ago but had been in ill health for some time.  His
death comes as the culmination of sickness and old age.
Many friends of Lassen and Modoc counties, California, mourn the passing of this
sturdy figure of the west.  He leaves considerable ranch property to his widow
and progeny.
Besides his widow, Mr. Eva L. Studley, he leaves sons and daughters Frank
Studley of Adin, Cal., Clarence Studley of Chico, Cal., Mrs. C.M. Harvey of
Santa Cruz, J.E. Campbell and Miss Eva S. Campbell of Reno.
The remains are now at the funeral parlors of Groesbeck and O’Brien and the
funeral arrangements will be announced later.
