Charles H. Brown, Prominent Butte Citizen, Dies at Home

Death yesterday morning at 6:30 o'clock claimed Charles Henry Brown, 53, at his home in Gridley. Brown for many years had been identified with Butte county politics and had served as county supervisor and assemblyman. Death came following years of failing health.

In the death of C. H. Brown Butte county loses one of its best citizens. He was devoted and loyal to his community, to his friends and to his family. A man of sound judgment and unimpeachable integrity, he was widely recognized for his business ability, strength of character and sound vision of life. He was genial and companionable and his friendships wide and lasting, and these friends will sincerely mourn his passing.

In State Many Years

Charles H. Brown was one of the leading cattle raisers, stockmen and farmers of Butte county. His father, Pearley G. Brown, a native of Ohio and also a stock raiser, brought his family to California in 1872, when Charles H. was a baby. The father took up farming and the raising of livestock, first at Lomo, later at Palermo, and still later at Biggs. A few years later, while Charles was still a child, the father died.

The deceased attended school in the Lone Tree district and finished at the public school at Biggs. He then began the livestock business. In early days he was the youngest cattle buyer traveling out of San Francisco. He was made foreman of the Reyman & Evans cattle ranch, on the Ord place near Gridley, and afterward joined the company as a partner. In 1909 and 1910 he leased over 20,000 acres of land and carried on the cattle business himself on a large scale. At the time of his death he owned two ranches, on which he raised fruit and grain, and was a renter of other property.

Held Important Posts

For eight years Brown was a supervisor of Butte county, and for two years of that time he served as chairman of the board. He was elected a member of the assembly of the California legislature in 1916 and gave active service for a term.

During his capacity as assemblyman Brown served on many important committees and groups within the assembly organization. He was a member of the committee on agriculture, drainage, swamps and overflowed lands; irrigation, labor and capital; ways and means, and livestock and dairy.

During the World War he was a member of the Butte County Council of Defense and was chairman of the community council at Gridley.

Brown is survived by the widow, Mrs. Marie Brown of Gridley, and a daughter, by a former marriage, Mrs. E. F. Perkins of Berkeley.

The deceased was prominent in Masonic and Elk circles. He was made a Mason in North Butte Lodge No. 290 at Gridley, and was a member of Franklin Chapter No. 20, R. A. M., and the Oroville Commandery No. 5, K.T. both at Oroville, and Islam Temple in San Francisco. He also was a member of Marysville Lodge No. 283, B. P. O. E.

Funeral services will he head at the family residence in Gridley on Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock and will be public, under auspices of North Butte Lodge No. 230, F. & A. M., Past Commander T. J. Lang officiating.

Burial will be in the Yuba City Mausoleum.

------------------------------------------------

Charles Henry Brown died at his home in Gridley yesterday morning shortly after 6 o'clock.

Deceased was a native of Illinois, in which state was born July 31, 1871, his death occurring at the age of 63 years, 2 months and 20 days.

Mr. Brown had been in failing health for a number of years, being afflicted with Brights disease and diabetes. During the past summer he suffered a slight shock of paralysis, but recovered sufficiently to get about and attend to his business. He had been in Chico on Saturday last. At about 8 o'clock Saturday evening shortly after returning to his home, he called his sister-in-law, Mrs. Nora Block, on the phone, and as he hung up was stricken. His condition was regarded a serious from the first and he continued to fail until his death yesterday morning.

Thus passed away in middle age perhaps the most prominent citizen of Butte county, where he had lived the most of his life. "Charlie" Brown, as he was known to everyone, will be missed by his community and his county. He was in the best sense a public man. During the war and at all times when the community had a task to perform "Charlie" Brown was drafted first, and to his credit be it said he never begged off; never was too busy; never was too tired, though he had worked harder and had less sleep for a week than any of the rest. He always helped and on most occasions led. He went straight to the point and had small patience with mere talk.

Always a busy man, "Charlie" found time to serve his county a supervisor for two terms, and later as assemblyman, declining to run for re-election because of failing health. He gave the best he had in his political work. He enjoyed the loyalty of his friends and the respect of his enemies, for enemies of course he made in political strife.

Everyone in the community considered "Charlie" Brown a friend ??? even those with whom he might have differed in opinion. He was a successful business man, starting as a boy with his youth and strength and integrity as his sole capital. He was identified nearly all his life with some branch of the stock industry ??? in cattle and hogs and sheep, and of later years with mules. He maintained a large herd of the latter for hire to contractors and he had been connected indirectly in the construction work of many of the big projects of the state.

During the past few years he developed several orchards, the last being on the river bottom ranch which the purchased some years ago.

Mr. Brown was twice married. His first wife was a daughter of the late J.A. Evans and Virginia Evans, the latter still surviving. Mrs. Brown died about eighteen years ago. One daughter was born to this union ??? Mrs. E.F. Perkins of Oakland. Mr. Brown's second marriage was to Mrs. Marie Welch, who survives him.

The deceased was a member of the Masonic fraternity, and the funeral which takes place tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock from the residence, will be under the auspices of North Butte Lodge No. 230 F. & A. M., of Gridley, Past Commander T. J. Long officiating. The body will be laid to rest in the mausoleum at Yuba City and an escort of Knights Templar will accompany the remains. The funeral will be public.

CHARLES H. BROWN

Former Assemblyman and Former Supervisor Charles H. Brown died at his home in Gridley early yesterday morning. Death was immediately due to paralysis, but followed an illness of years. During this long and trying illness Mr. Brown's courage never faltered or failed.

The news of Mr. Brown's death was received with profound sorrow all over Butte County. Few men in the county were better known. He had been inactive business in the county as a farmer and stockman for many years. His reputation everywhere was that of a businessman of keen ability and of absolute integrity.

Mr. Brown, served the Fourth District as supervisor for two terms. He brought to the county the same keen business ability that had characterized the conduct of his own affairs. He retired from office at the close of his second term, but the ability with which he had administered the affairs of the office had attracted such wide attention, that in 1916 he was elected to represent the county in the Assembly. He served one term there, retiring from political life after his term there had expired.

Mr. Brown was an extensive property owner and took an active interest both in community, county and state development. He was also active in Masonic circles and was a member of Royal Arch, Knights Templar and the Ben Ali Temple of the Mystic Shrine.

He was 63 years old, a native of Illinois. Surviving are the widow, Mrs. Marie Brown, and one daughter, Mrs. Gladys Perkins of Oakland.

Funeral services will be held from the family residence in Gridley on Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock and will be held publicly under the auspices of the North Butte Lodge No. 230, F. and A. M. Past Commander T.J. Land, officiating.

The internment will be to the Yuba City Mausoleum.

A GRIDLEY HOME BEREFT OF MEMBER

The death of Mrs. Myrtle E. Brown, wife of Supervisor Chas. E. Brown, at her home in this place last Monday [May 14, 1906] at 12:30, removed an estimable woman, whose life had been spent in the community and who was universally respected.

Mrs. Brown was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Evans, and was born in Gridley Oct. 25, 1874. Her girlhood and young womanhood were spent in this place, and on January 29, 1895 she was married to Chas. H. Brown in San Francisco. One child, a daughter, 10 years old survives her, as does her husband, father and mother, one brother and one sister. Geo. E. Evans and Mrs. Albert Stains both of Gridley.

Mrs. Brown had been ill of a pulmonary trouble for the past seven or eight years, and of late her health had been very poor. The best of medical skill was brought to her aid and she had every possible attention, but the grip of her disease was too strongly fixed upon her and recovery was impossible.

The funeral occurred from the home in Gridley Wednesday, May 16, at 2 p.m., and the interment took place in Live Oak cemetery.
