Alexander Burrell, Well-Known Mining Man, Dead
He was a self-made man who obtained a liberal education through private study. Served one term as a state legislator. Masons will have charge of the funeral.
While seated in a chair in his office at the Argo Mine, Alexander Burrell aged 66, general manager of the Furnace Creek Copper Oxide Company, died yesterday morning at 10 o'clock. News of his sudden death was a shock to his friends.
Burrell was one of the best-known mining men in Montana. A self-made man, he had obtained a liberal education through private study. He was especially well-versed in science.
Beginning his mining career in Illinois, he came to Montana in 1888. He was first in the employment of the English Company which developed the Drum Lummon Mine. He was promoted steadily until he became general manager. In 1892, Burrell was elected as a member of the legislature from Lewis and Clark County. He was instrumental in the passage of important mining laws. He did not run for re-election, although his republican friends felt that he would have been successful. He was recently chosen as manager of the Butte Mining Company.
Burrell moved from Helena in Choteau in Teton County, where he established a home on his large tract of land. His hospitality was widely known.
Besides his wife, he is survived by the following sons and daughters: George L., Alexander A., Mrs Thomas Givens, Sidney H., John A., William D., Roger A., Howard and Nan K.
Burrell was a prominent Mason of Helena and was a member of the Ancient Order of United Workmen. It is likely that the Masons will have charge of the funeral arrangements.
