Whereupon The Detroit Tribune publishes
the following.
DIED-On the Goth inst, Pure c. Brandy,
ESQ, Of dropsy This event is moi alto
gether unexpected, as the departed has been
afflicted with the disease which caused his
death for long time. OF late the quantity
of water accommodating in his system was i'm.
mense, and he had been tapped by his ply
sicians several times, but without effect
He had a large number of doctors, and they
are mean enough TO say that hastened his
disease. His loss will be sensibly felt BY
his many friends who were accustomed TO see
him daily in our streets.
Also, on the same day, r. G. Brandy, Esq,
famiialry known by the sibriquet of Rot
Gut, aud brother P. c., whose death we chron-
icIe above. He took large quantity OF poison
10y mistake i, is supposedly several years
ago. No bad effect was realized at first, but
for few year. past il had been spreading
through his system, and has finally caused
his death. 1t is hoped that his death will be
a warning TO those who have been in the
habit of taking poison for Medicine.
| Also, on the same day, H. Gin, Esq. The
deceased was a member Of the Brandy fam.
! lily, a relative by marriage. He was ma
! tive OF Holland, and fled 10 the United States
several years ago, in consequence Of having
been actively engaged in one of the revolu-
ilous that characierize that country. He
was pursued by the Police, but secreted him
self in cask and landed safely in New
York. Since then many of his family have
made their escape in the same manner. He
left a family OF children, most of whom were
born in this country, but we are sorry 10 say
are not characterized by any OF the uaits
of their distinguished fathers
Also, on the same day, Rye Whiskey,
Esq. Mr.. w was ole of the first settlers
of Michigan. In eally life he was all in.
duslrlous hard working man. He has done
much TO build up our Railroads and public
works, and could always be found in harvest
field early aud late. Some few of our far
mers thought they could not harvest iheir
wheat unless Mr.. W., was with them 10
cheer up their hands. How they will man.
aye 10 do since his death, we are unable ,o
say. 1t may lead TO disastrous results, and
il is feared By some that our farmers may
Cease TO grow wheat, which would inevia
hly raise the price of -four.
Of iale years, however, Mr.W., has growr
shiftless, noisy and quarrelsome, and any
! neighborhood he visited was sure TO be iht
scene Of disturbance of every nature. Tn,
TOO frequent occurrence Of street fights got ul
by Mr. W, was the ultimate cause of hi
death. He was killed by IA blow on III,
head with ballot box, in open daylight
! The perpetrators of the deed are rot full
{ known but suspicion rests upon two mel
whose names we believe are Mr. Law an,
: Mr.. Order. Several men from the Ere
Press office are Oh lhe watch and have, II
doubt, appGeheuded them.
