DEATH OF Mr.. JELLY.-Samuel Jelly, an
account of whose fatal accident has hereto.
fore been given, died on Saturday evening,
after having continued in an unconscious
state about tifty-two hours. 10 his death he
leaves sister in this city, an only son, now
en- route from the East in response TO tele-
gram, and several near relatives residents of
New England. Mr.. Jelly was native of
Salem, Mass, and came to Sacramento in the
pioneer day., arriving here early in 1850.
He engaged the sams year in the jewelry
business in this city, and has ever since con-
tinued, maintaining a prominent position in
business circles. His death is felt by the en-
tire community as great loss, and is deeply
deplored.. Wherever he was known, in bust
ness or social circles, he was most highly re-
spected and esteemed He was a-nan of
sterling qualities and positive traits of char
scter. but was of retiring disposition, and
rarely permitted himself to be placed promi-
nently in public affairs. In thought and in
huence he was of Christian profession; was
uniformly courteous and kindly to all. His
charitable impulses were warm, and were
manifest in public and private benefactions
of the most liberal character, bestowed
broadly, but SO quietly that the world knew
not half their extent. To have it written,
He lived and died respected and beloved by
all, Is mans best epitaph.
