RETURNED 10 DIE.-Under this caption
we referred, week or two since, to the
attending the death, at the
railroad depot, of Mr.. Isaac w. Lewis, a
returned Californian, of this place. Mr..
Lewis was accompanied ON his journey
home by Mr.. George Bartlett, a resident
of this place, who had been to California
some three years. Bartlett being mental
ly as well as physically incaPacitated by
a paralytic stroke, was kindly cared for
by Mr.. Lewis on the returning voyages,
and arrived safe at Bridgeport. Being
deprived of his protector by the sudden
demise of Mr.. Lewis, greatly debilitated
in body and mind, in the darkness of the
night, he set out for the residence of his
father. near Berkshire bridge. The fami-
ly were on the point of retiring, when Mr..
Bartlett, the elder, was called to the door
by some one endeavoring to gain admit
lance. The signs and broken words OF
the stranger-for such disease and suf
fering had rendered him-were under

house all night. Mr.. Bartlett, having at
home daughter seriously ill. was COM

departure, the invalid daughter. a sister
of the returned son, who had overheard
the interview, remarked to her father that
the voice of the stranger reminded her of
her absent brother, and requested that he
might be recalled. In compliance with her
request, the father stepped to the door
and called to him by the christian name
of his son, whom he supposed to be in
California. This was instantly replied to ;
hope was rekindled; the wanderer was
brought back; closer scrutiny confirmed
the suspicious of the sister, and the I'M
happy son and brother, testifying his Joy
by signs and looks. laid himself down to
die. The love of home-amounting in
this case to hardly more than instinct
had sustained the sufferer to the threshold
of the paternal roof. when exhausted ma,
