Died in a Streetcar.
Captain Fitzhugh Goldsborough, a prominent businessman of Baltimore and Commandant of the 3rd Company of the Veteran Corps of the 5th Regiment, died yesterday, quite suddenly, of a heart attack, while riding in a car of the Baltimore Traction Company, while the latter was at the corner of the Eutaw and Camden streets. Mr. Goldsborough had apparently left his home, No. 17 East Eager Street, at 7:30 o'clock in the morning, and was on his way to his brick kiln at the corner of Fremont and Warner Street. When the car in which Mr. Goldsborough was riding was at the corner of the Camden and Howard Street, the other passengers suddenly noticed that Mr. Goldsborough had collapsed and leaned over. They at once determined the facts, and brought the lifeless body to Mr. Tickenor's undertaking establishment at the corner of Camden and Paca Street, from where the corpse, after Coroner Geer had seen the same, was transferred to the deceased's family home in the afternoon. Mr. Goldsborough's wife and children were overwhelmed with anguish upon receiving the news of the sudden death of their husband and father. Capt. Goldsborough was 48 years old. He was born in Cambridge, Dorchester Co., Md., and came to Baltimore in his youth, where he co-founded the business of Goldsborough, Meyer & Pitts, on South Gay Street. He later, in conjunction with Mr. J. S. Bull, established a brick-kiln on Warner Street, which he has operated on his own in recent years. He was well known in military circles, having belonged to the Maryland National Guard since 1867.
