The death here of Louis E. Kaufman, 84, removes one of the most famous Cattle Kings in Montana.
Born in Germany, Kaufman arrived here in 1866, and engaged in gold mining. He later turned to cattle raising, and his brands soon were known throughout the State of Montana. Charles Russell, the celebrated cowboy-artist, was manager of one of the Kaufman ranches.
Mr. Kaufman was a member of Congregation Emanuel.
