Frank McAVOY died in a Pueblo hospital one day last week of an affliction which had confined him to a hospital for two years.
Mr. McAVOY was one of the very early pioneers of Leadville and Red Cliff, coming to the former camp in the latter seventies and to Red Cliff in the early eighties.
He was born in New York state of a leading family of that commonwealth, was well educated, and a man of a most brilliant mind. He came west as a very young man, and early sought his fortune in the mining camps. He was prominent in the affairs of this county during his residence here of more than forty years. He was a brother of Mrs. Charles McELLEN, a pioneer of Gypsum valley and long a resident of Eagle.
He is survived by his widow, living in Pueblo, the couple having had no children, and relatives living in New York state. Older residents of Eagle county all knew the deceased and will regret his passing.
