SANTA MONICA, Nov. 27.—Levi R. Vincent, capitalist and philanthropist, died at an early hour this morning at his residence on Third street, after a lingering sickness of several months. Mr. Vincent was 69 years of age, and had lived in Santa Monica for the past fourteen years.

Funeral services will be in charge of the Masonic order at 2 p. m. Tuesday.
