of his companions placed him on q
wheel barrow and conveyed him to his resi-
dence, bat before reaching home the man

JosEPH WALKuP.-Among old Califor-
mans the name of Mr.. Walkup will be
well remembered. He was elected Lieu
tenant Governor of California in 1857,
when John B. Weller was elected Gov
ernor. after the expiration of his term
of Office he returned to Placer county.
OF late years he has been editor of the
Herald at Auburn, and in a late issue Of
that journal appeared the following par
agraph:
1t will pain the readers of the Herald
to learn that Governor Walkup is con-
fined 10 his bed with paralysis. Last
Tuesday evening he retired to his bed
about 8 o'clock, feeling quite as well as
usual, and about an hour later was struck
with paralysis through the whole of his
left side, and has been unable to speak
plainly or scarcely move himself since.
Up to the present he has improved
slightly, and it is thought and sincerely
hoped he will soon recover.
