Hancock, Major General commanding the

was in Washington, whittier he had gone
on private business. He believed it to
be a boil and had it lanced. The carbuncle,
however, broke out afresh on the 18th with

worse until eleven O'Clock at night, when
the General became delirious. The follow

FOUND IN FLORIDA.

A Former Prominent Boston Lawyer, Who
Fled the State as Defaulter, Identified
in the Person of Petty Criminal at
Jacksonville, Fla.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Feb. 8.-Some three
weeks ago man giving the name of
Charles j. Haynes was arrested here,
charged with embezzling FIVE dollars from
hotel-register man named Beach. Hayne
was committed for trial, and has lain in
Jail ever since. Hayne has been identified
as a noted Boston lawyer, Major. Edward
T. Brown, whose career has excited intense
interest throughout New England.
Brown was retained by the Marsh family
as counsel in. the celebrated Tewksbury
almshouse investigation under Governor
B. f. Butler. He made great reputa
ton in this case. Money and fame
flowed in. He opened an elegant suite
of rooms in the Equitable building,
and the settlement of large estates, guar
dianships, ETC., were placed in his hands.
He became dissipated, proved defaulter
to his clients in the sum of forty Thousand
dollars and fed. Brown denies his identity,
but there is little doubt he is the same man.
He is broken in health and fortune and
will probably be taken back to Boston.
