From Nevada Representative March 12, 1884

Died.

At his home in Story City, Saturday, March 8th, 1884, Lewis Charleson. Mr. Charleson was a member of the well known firm of Swan & Charleson. He was yet a young man, about 36 years of age. By industry and close attention to business he had acquired considerable property. All who had dealings with him knew him to be scrupulously honest in all business transactions; and few men enjoyed the confidence of neighbors and acquaintances to such an extent as he. His word to a friend, as in business, was as good as his bond. He leaves a wife and two children to mourn the loss of a kind husband and father.
