DEATH OF MRs. t. w. SHEEHAN.-There
died in this city last evening, after an illness
of but one week, Mollie f., wife of 7. W.
Sheehan, of Sacramento. The suddenness of
the death of this estimsble lady added sever
ity to the shock with which the news was
received, for she was taken away in the very
prime of youth, and but few days ago wss
the picture of robust health. Mrs. Sheehan
leaves to mourn her loss husband and five
children and large number of near rela-
tiyes. She was widely known in this city,
and BY the amiabilities Of her disposition and
| those traits Of character that distinguish the
affectionate wife, the devoted mother and the
gentle woman, she bound to her with more
| than the strength of ordinary friendship a
hest of friends, while she commanded, by the
praces OF true womanhood, the esteem and
respect of all who knew her. The peaceful
domestic circle over which che presided has
received blow which fell not there alone,
but in every home in the community where
she was known.
