The Fort Worth Democrat, in n0-
ticing the death of the old gentleman
named Russell, which occurred on the
train Thursday night between this
place and Fort Worth, does great in
justice to MIR. Cleveland, proprietor Of
the Union hotel at this place. The
'facts OF the case were printed in THE
HERALD OF yesterday morning. In
justice to MIR. Cleveland we publish the
main fecs again, together with others
that we Have since learned.
Mr.. Cleveland first knew of the pres
ence of the old gentlemen after the
train bound north had left, ot which
time he was Informed by his employees
that sick man was in the hotel, who
wished to get to his brother,a DR.. Rus.
sell, who, he stated, resided in Alva-
RADIO county. Mr.. Cleveland informed
him that he knew of no way to
reach AlyaradO except by stage
from Fort Worth The old man,
although quite feeble, insisted on
going to Fort Worth, and when the
train came up, cried out in n most pitt
full manner and was frantic TO be put
on the trsin. Seeing the feeble condi'
ton Of the old gentleman, Mr. Cieve'
land thought II best to accede to his
wishes and get him to relatives rs
soon az possible. The sick man
was therefore as tenderly as pOssl-
BILE placed Oh the train and the con-
doctor requested to zee that he was
carried to Il hOtel, and the hotel peo-
pie notified TO communicate with or
send him to his relatives OF course,
| if Mr.. Cleveland had known that the
I old man was 80 near death he would
not consented to his request for re.
moval, but did what he thought for
| the best under the circumstances. AL
/ though the sick man had money, Mr..
Cleveland would not accept cent for
/ the time he was in the hotel, and he
was given every possible attention and
was only allowed to depart at his own
urgent solicitation. We have thus re-
ferred to this matter again TO set at
right before the public worthy citi-
zen and honorable gentleman, whom
! we are certain the Democrat will not
do an Intentional injury In making a
abatement detrimental to him, when
II learns the facts in the case.
