Bridgeport Chronicle-Union, Bridgeport, California, 3/25/1899:
"On Sunday morning I. N. Farwell, formerly County Clerk of Esmeralda county, Nevada,
and a resident of Monitor, Alpine county, in its boom days, died at Sweetwater, Nev., of
hasty consumption, at the age of 62 years. The deceased having belonged to Aurora Lodge,
I.O.O.F., so many of them now residing in Bridgeport, the members of the Order in
Bridgeport conducted the funeral services, the remains arriving here from Sweetwater at
about 5 o'clock on Monday afternoon, and were soon after interred agreeably with the
rites of the Order, a choir rendering appropriate hymns. Mr. Farwell, we hear, left a
married son and daughter in San Luis Obispo county."
