Description: Death of Cecil Loughran

Date: February 13 1900

Newspaper published in: Virginia City

Source: library

Page/Column: 1/3

Cecil Loughran, who was injured at National Guard Hall on January 19th by falling from a horizontal bar, died as a result of his injuries yesterday about 11 o'clock.
Since receiving his injuries he has suffered great pain and his body has been paralyzed. From the first the doctors in attendance have had no hope of his recovery and death came as a relief. No young man in this city had more friends then the deceased, as he was possessed of a happy disposition and was generous to a fault. He was always ready to share whatever he possessed with his companions. During the Spanish War he enlisted in Company A of the Nevada Battalion and was honorably discharged when that organization was disbanded.
The deceased was a native of this city, 19 years of age, and leaves a mother and two brothers in this city to mourn his loss.
