David McCranor, brother of Mrs. Lizzie Voris, on South Water Street, died Monday night at Hot Springs. The immediate cause of his death is not known, but as he had a stroke of paralysis about a year ago, it is supposed by his friends here that it was a second stroke which proved fatal. Mr. McCranor was about 57 years old, but had never married. His life has been spent in the west, but for the last year or more he has resided in this city. He was a large operator in mining, and leaves a handsome fortune. His mother is still living and resides with her daughter, Mrs. Voris. The remains will be brought here for interment. - s
