Mayho, Peter------Yesterday afternoon about 2 o'clock Peter Mayho an aged and respected citizen of Heber passed away. He has suffered for over thirty years with rheumatism, being confined to his bed for months at a time. He was bedfast for three years at one time and his suffering was such that words could not describe. At times he has been so bad that the only way to move him was on a sheet. Of late years he has not suffered so much as formerly. The funeral services will be held in the Stake house at 3 o'clock this afternoon.  He had made arrangements for the funeral services some time ago and his instructions will be carried out to the very letter. He desired to have John Watkins of Midway and Jonathan Clegg and John Cook of Heber to speak at the services and George Blackley to make his coffin. Peter Mayho was the third son of James Mayho and Mary Greenhalgh. He was born in Turton Township Lancashire, England, January 12, 1816. He has a genealogical record which dates back to the year 1708. He joined the church in the old country and emigrated to Utah in 1856, crossing the plains in Captain Martin's hand-cart company. When he reached the valleys he stopped in Salt Lake City for three months. From there he moved to Kaysville where he lived until the "move" as it was called when all the settlers of the northern part of the territory moved south at the time Johnsons army moved in. He settled on what was then called lake bottom near Provo. It was here that he suffered most from rheumatic pains which left his limbs drawn out of shape and made him a cripple for the remainder of his life. He moved his family to Heber in 1862, where they have since made their home. He leaves a wife and two children, Noah Mayho , and Mrs. George M. Giles, and a host of friends to mourn his death.
