more dangerous injuries, and has been
for part of the time since posing be.
tween life and death, while Warmers
injuries, though very severe, we're not
such as to prevent his appearing upon
our streets after short confinement,
and he seemed to have prospect Of
complete recovery. But about ten days
ago, his mind seemed to show signs of
imbecility at intervals, and he CON-
planned much of his head, and par
tial paralysis of his limbs. About a
week ago he was taken to the house of
W. D. Wardwell, and provided for
with all the cafe and attention which
friendship and kindness could furnish.
He seemed to improve little. No
one apprehended his sudden demise till
about 2 A. NJ, the morning he died,
when on going to his bed he was found
to have had q struggle, in which he
had thrown of all the clothes from his
bed, and he was speeches.; evidently
with paralysis. He never rallied nor
spoke afterwards, bat gradually sank,
without much further struggle till
death occurred, about I A. NJ. on
Tuesday.
The deceased was born at Albion,
Orleans county, N. Y, Of highly re-
spectacle parents. He came to Cali.

Idaho. He was engaged in various oc'
equations for several year still he came,
in 1864, to reside permanently in this
