From Nevada Representative April 4, 1877

Mr. A. E. Aumoth, the owner of the new elevator in this place, and a most excellent business man, died, Tuesday about noon, at the residence of Mrs. Blackman. His complaint was consumption and up to within a few days of his death, he still maintained that he was going to get well and hearty yet. He had been complaining for about two years, but up to within three weeks of its death had attended to his own business. He was unmarried, a Norwegian by birth and as far as we know has hardly a relative in this country. As a fine penman, superior book-keeper, and linguist, he had but few equals.
