Many friends of Mr. William Noble, the well known steamboat mate, will learn with keen regret of his death, which occurred last night at the home of his son, Mr. Sherley Noble, in Cincinnati.

The deceased has been in failing health for several months and about a week ago suffered an attack of pneumonia, which was the cause of death.

When taken ill Mr. Noble was making arrangements to go out on the Queen City on her trip to New Orleans this month.

Mr. Noble was a good steamboatman and one of the best known and beloved rivermen in the Ohio Valley. He was careful and methodical and his services were always in demand. He had many friends all along the route and the announcement of his last landing will be received with deep sorrow.

The decedent is survived by a widow, formerly Miss Bertha Bet, of this city, and two sons, Sherley Noble of Cincinnati, and David Noble, of Cleveland, Ohio, and one daughter, Mrs. Thomas M. Reed, of this city. All members of the family were with him when the end came.
