Lafayette Thursday on the way to
his home in Mexico City. Mr.. Brown
was wounded at San Juan Hill,
receiving three bullets, one of which
is said to have gone through his
right lung. In consequence of the
last wound he was in very
feeble condition. He had a letter
from one of the officers attesting
his courage and gallantry on the
field Of battle. Fortunately for Mr..
Brown he has received some assis-
lance from friends, as the govern
ment has not yet done anything to
help him and in his present state of
health he is not able to work.
