Delayed Bruneau Letter.

met with violent death, eau sed by
a runaway team with a hay rake
on John Mithell's ranch on the
18th, ult. Apparently everything
was in good order when he started
to work and what was the main
cause of the runaway is unknown
and undoubtedly shall never be
fathomed. He was found uncon-
scious, under the rake with both
limbs entangled in the wheels. He
had received a very fatal blow ON
the left side of his head little above
the ear, also several cuts, which no
doubt caused his death. Both
limbs were broken and had several
deep flesh wounds on his right
limb. He died in an unconscious
state, never realizing his suffering.
