| SAD AccrDENT.-0n last Monday night John McIen
man, generally known as Bosque John, fell from the
door of the courtroom second story to the ground
below and broke bis neck. He had been drinking to
some extent the evening before, and it is supposed
went up into the courtroom to Sleep and during the
night walked towards the door for some purpose and
fell, as stated above. From his appearance when
found it thought that the accident occurred be-
tween and 4 o'clock in the morning. An inquest
was held on the body and verdict rendered in ac-
cordance With the above facts. We informed that
this is the third who have fallen from the door of
the courtroom, two killed and one badly crippled.
The deceased was nephew of Mel McLennan, ST.,
the father of MeLennan county, and was sometimes
called Indian John, from the fact Of his having been
captured by the Indians In 1891 IS when he was
about six years old, his father was killed by the In
dams, ia Milan county, and his mother bis brother
and himself captured His mother died soon after her
capture; his brother was kept by them some time,
and finally sold to traders in Eastern Texas,
where he died before his friends could get him. John
remained with the Indians till he eighteen years
old, ana often accompanied them in their predatory
ncursons into the frontier settlements. It is related
of him that time he visited Austin in company
with party of Indians, and while there they became
alarmed from cause and starting from that place
at about o'clock at night they Travelled with such
rapdty they reached the place where Waco stands
b. daylight next morning, distance of one hundred
miles ID about eight hours
In ABOUT 1916 Or Y, ne was obtained from the In
dians by treaty, and his friends found it very difficult
to induce him to remain with them and accommodate
himself to the modes and habits of life Of civil soce-
ty. He was FESTIVE under the restraints of civil life
and often became morose and silently brooded over
remembrances Of his wild life. He had to be carefully
watched for twelve months to prevent his return to
his Indian friends His wild habits wore away in time
and he learned to adapt himself to the habits
and customs of civil society. He married an excel
lent lady in few years, settled upon farm and be-
came industrious, good citizen. He leaves wife
aud large family to mourn his death.
