Funeral Service Of William G. Graham

Funeral services were held here last Sunday over the remains of William G. Graham at a largely attended ceremony at the Presbyterian church.

Accompanying the body was Mr. Fish, a son-in-law, at whose home in Nyack, New York, Mr. Graham’s death occurred when he fell through as open window in the second story about ten days ago.

Mr. Graham, one of California’s earliest and most noted hotelmen, left here a short time before the accident to visit his daughter, Mrs. Fish. He was a member of the California Society of Pioneers, and a large number of his fellow members attended the services.

At one time Mr. Graham conducted the Tamalpais hotel here. He also served the county as a member of the Board of Supervisors as chairman of the body. His early life in business circles was spent in San Francisco where he opened and conducted several famous hostelries. He is survived by George Graham, a son, of San Rafael, and his daughter, Mrs. Fish, of New York. Interment was made in Tamalpais Cemetery.
