50. and since that time has been resident of
this place. Having been engaged in the
ew-paper business. be was well known; and
his Kindness of heart. and pleasant advice.
made him universal favorite. One thing
We can safely -ay of him; he was free from
all the vices that surround us in California.
lie knew he was old, aud be was proud OF
his hoary head. because bis virtues made it
crown of glory. He has more than once
told us he was ready Tor his great change.
Ills death was produced hy old age and
Il shattered constitution, FASTENED 10y par

his age. and leaves wife and five children
to mourn his lJss. Our sincere wish is that
