Article Description: Lee Yeun Passes To His Fore Fathers
Article Text:
Recently Lee YUEN of Mina passed away at Carson City, where he went for medical
treatment. He was about 68 years of age. Almost everyone in this section knew and
esteemed Lee YUEN. He was one of the oldest pioneers in this section of the state. When
Candelaria first sprung into existence over a third of a century ago, LEE was with
the rush and opened up his "Washee House." He personally knew Borax SMITH and other
notables of that old bonanza camp and was one of the last to leave the old camp when
she sank to sleep. LEE made a fortune during his life but it went with a free and
lavish hand. LEE performed his mission in life in his humble manner. He was big
hearted and generous and many a prospector and wanderer over the desert can thank LEE for
the price that took the wrinkles from beneath his belt. He has climbed his last
range and entered the celestial flowery kingdom of eternity. May his ashes and the ashes
of his honorable ancestors rest in peace.
