Thomas P. Fitzgerald Answers Last Call
Pioneer of Mill Valley Succumbs After Illness of Several Months

Thomas Percy Fitzgerald, one of the pioneers who has loved Mill Valley and lived here since the Valley was opened, passed away quietly at his home on Ethel Avenue at 6 o’clock this morning, the result of an illness extending over several months. He was of English birth, about 55 years of age.

Mr. Fitzgerald, together with Mr. A. Roullier, his chum and companion of 30 years, and among his circle of friends here was well loved and respected. About 3 years ago, his health failed and he spent some time traveling on the Continent. This apparently cured him, and he returned in excellent health and spirits, but he again became ill about 4 months ago and this time sank rapidly until the end this morning.

The funeral will take place next Sunday, with interment at Manzanita Cemetery.
