realized, came to bless him. and so the
was not surprise. but only a
ton Of the dream. Col. Kerr |
was an old Virginia gentleman; his title |
Of Colonel was honest; he raised regi- |
ment for the Seminole or Mexican war,
we do not remember which, the services |
of which, however. were made unneces-
sary by the return of peace. He was
man of exte nsive learning. and in his
youth possessed much property. He
tie rush to California in 1919.
At one time in California he was promi-
nent in politics. He came TO Virginia
City in 1859, and must have been then
more than three score years of age.
With the White Pine excitement he went
there, and now the end has come. He
was a man of none but generous i'm
pulses, none but honorable motives. He
left his family in the southwest and
came to the golden coast to make a
fortune for them. He struggled on
through the years and finally at four
score, died alone in his cabin in the
desert. We presume to the last his
dream was to some time carry back to
the loved ones the accumulated golden
treasures he came hither to seek
for them. There are many such men
scattered over this coast. We meet
them every day, and know when we
look them in the face that there has
been q heartache in their breasts for
years. About the best wish we can
make them is that. like Colonel Kerr,
they may meet death painlessly, and
that. with hands folded, they may
peacefully pass to everlasting peace.
