Robert Bell, the fourth son of John Bell, after spending many years on the Pacific coast, returned to Ceres in 1869 and married Helen Richardson, of Cuba (NY).
A few months after he accompanied Dr. T.C. Ledyard on his last trip to Central America, being also a dentist. They made an extensive and successful tour, and had accumulated so much gold that it excited the cupidity of their guides, who had been furnished by a friend and were considered reliable. They were to cross that day the high range of mountains separating them from the eastern coast, where they were to embark for home. It was to be their last hard day of travel, and they were especially happy in the thought of their homecoming, when first one, then the other, were cut down, almost simultaneously, by their guides. They were well armed, but were taken off their guard. Afterwards their bodies were found and buried, and a pile of stones put over them, a cross set up, and after long weary weeks of waiting for their return, there came a letter from the American Consul, at the nearest seaport, announcing their deaths. ... Robert's wife had a baby girl born three weeks after the sad news was received. It lived to be seven months old when it, too, died, leaving the bride of a year and a half a widow and childless. She moved to Olean, where, being a superior musician, she has supported herself by teaching music."
