• Notes

  Le Roy Gazette August 13, 1873 A dispatch from Geo. N. Platt at Santa Barbara, California, announces the death, at that place on Sunday, of B.F. Ballard, late cashier of the First National Bank at Le Roy. His age was thirty three, and his disease was hemmorage of the lung. Mr. Ballard was a native of Le Roy - had long occupied a conspicuous place in the business circles of this town, and was esteemed among the ablest of his profession. His industry and accuracy were proverbial. When arrested by the disease which finally took him, from his earthly labors, he was prospecting for a suitable place to establish a ranch for sheep raising. His remains are expected here on Thursday or Friday of next week.
