LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

lline WHO arrived IL JnlS country ahead OF
Uncle Billy Hicks, who has resided III this
vicinity continuously for the past forty-one
years. Mr.. Hicks came the plains across, "
and landed on the Costumes in 1913. five
years previous to the gold discovery in 1878
al C0loma, not more than forty miles from
hls present place of abode. He was one OF
the party VINO went to the rescue of the
Bonner family that persisted in the Sierras
IN 1876, and in early days was like AleXan-
der Sellirk OF old, monarch of all | sur
Vey.' His acres, horses and cattle covered
q thousand hills, so to speak and many
a traveller has been welcomed at his hos
pitable home. His acres, though not as
broad rs formerly are numerous enough
to support HIM in good style. Within q
stones throw of HickSville stands his resi-
dence, the same locality selected by him in
1913. Eleven hundred acres of land com
prise his real estate possessions in this
county, and he need have no apprehensions
of going to the wall 4 few years ago he
lost his wife, a loss keenlv felt by him. as
no sons or daughters remained to comfort
his declining years. Age has handled him
tenderly, however, and he looks now as
though he would outlive many OF the
younger men of the present day. This
sturdy pioneer has seen many ups and
downs during his career but has lived to
overcome all obstacles and can dwell il
luxury and ease the balance OF his days.
