NOTABLE DEATHS --
-Another notable death was chronicled by the Nevada “Transcript.” He was known as “Uncle Charley ROBERTS,” and the “Transcript” thus notices him: Uncle Charley ROBERTS, who was one of the celebrities of our county, died on Saturday afternoon at his home in North San Juan. Uncle Charley weighed about 400 pounds. He had not been able to sleep except in his chair for more than 2 years, for fear of suffocation.
