A telegram was received here Tuesday night announcing the sud den death of Mr. Richmond Maury, at Danville, ot acute appendicitis. Mr. Maury had large business inter ests here and spent a good deal of time here during the tobacco season. Mr. Robt. Allen, manager, and Mr. W. I. Skinner, buyer for the Wilson branch of the firm, went to Rich mond to attend the funeral. The following is clipped from a Richmond paper : HIS BUSINESS CAREER. Mr. Maury first engaged in busi ness as clerk for Hill, Skinker & Watkins. After the dissolution of this firm he.accepted a position with C B. Hill & Co., and later went into business on hjs own account as a to bacco buyer, trading under the fiiim name of Richmond Maury & Co. He moved to Danville several years ago where the firrrf name was continued. He was up to the time of his death engaged in buying and selling leaf in Wilson, N. C, and Danville. He also represented a large English firm as buyer. ... Mr. Maury, had always been re markably successful in business and was doing well at the time of his death. , LEAVES WIFE AND TWO CHILDREN. The deceased was married about six years ago to Miss Mary Jordan, of Smithfield, Isle of Wight county, who survives with two children,' .one son and one daughter. . Mr. Maury, during his residence in Richmond, was a member ot, the Westmoreland Club, and St. James Episcopal Church. He enjoyed a Aide acquaintance in Richmond and vicinity, and his affable, genial dispo sition andTiis unaffected simplicity won the highest esteem oi all to whom he was known. The statement would be a safe one that no more deserved ty popular young man ever lived in the city. Richmond, Va., Leader.
