SUppAS DIArH.-lt is with no ordi-
nary feelings Of sorrow that we record
the death of Mr.. John Pierce-(known
to many of the people Of Carson, Gold
Hill, and Virginia city, as Jack Pierce,
the old man-of-warsman.) He died this
morning, a, about 1 o'clock, after an
illness Of not over t~wenty-four hours,
caused by = hemorrhsge Of the lungs.
The deceased was an old pioneer on the
Pacific coast-haviug arrived at San
Francisco AZ early IS 1888, at which
time be was boatswain on the United
States frigSte Constitution-sbout TWEEN
ty-nine years ago. After leaving San
Francisco at that early period, he re-
turned again in 1919; since which time,
we are informed, he has resided in Cali
toruis and Nevada. The deceased Was
a native Of Connecticut, and aged about
4s years. To say that Jack Pierce had
an enemy in the world, would be saying
an uutruth, for a man with.so kind, so
harmless, and so really good a heart
and disposition, never have a vim
| dictive enemy. Soon, the ''clods Of the
| valley" will cover his mortal remsins-
to sleep that long and last sleep that
knows no waking, and that deep dark
ness to which all living things are borne
by the sands Of time. Tomorrow, near
the hour Of high twelve, the many per-
sonal friends of the deceased will bear
his remains 10 the grave, ~perchance to
shed a tear and TO feel = paug Of heart
| felt sorrow when the earth closes over
them. Let his sudden and untimely
taking of" be a warning, for no man
knoweth who shall next be called away.
