son Tribune, an item appeared in the
Tribune tn the effect that Mrs. Lena
Lattan desired information of the
whereabouts Of her brother, John De-
Laney. Last evening q gentleman
called at this Office and informed US
that q man bearing that name had been
Killed in the Sutr0 Tunnel about ayear
ago. This will be sad news to the I'M
fortunate woman. Altogether this is a
hard Ease. The woman in question
lost her husband about q year and q
half ago. On learning this her brother
sent for her to. COME to Virginia City.
As soon as she was able the lady left
for her destination. She stopped over
at Kansas City, and the hotel in which
she lodged took fire and she barely es-
capped with her life and babes, losing
all her clothing and what little money
she possessed. Since that time. she has
been working her way here a. best she
could. On her arrival in Carson she
had but four bits in her pocket, which
was soon spent in food for her babes.
but by the assistance Of some kind
families, she has since been taken care
OF, and now the sad, sad intelligence is
brought to her that her only brother is
numbered with the dead.
