George Washington Graham died in November last at his home in Memphis, Tenn. He was born in Manchester, N. H., July 14, 1859, and prepared for college at Manchester High School.
From his graduation to 1883 he was a law student in Boston. The next four years he spent in the cattle business on Powder River, Montana, giving up this occupation on account of the disastrous losses which visited that section during the terrible winter of 1886-7. From 1887 to 1900 he was business manager and treasurer of the Helena (Montana) Independent. From 1901 to 1903 he was connected with the New York Sun. From 190 to 1911 he was engaged in mining at Baker City, Oregon. From the last date until his death he resided in Memphis, being employed most of the time on the advertising staff of the Commercial-Appeal.
He was married in Memphis, May 16, to Helen P. Davis, and had no children.
