Will Bowman Dead.
Will Bowman, mention of whose injuries by being run down by a traveling orane at Puebla, 0010., was mentioned at the time of the accident, died last Wednesday. He was about thirty-four years of age and the son of Mrs. Mattie E. Henkle, formerly of Rensselaer. He was the last but one of nine children, the other seven having all died from consumption, and it was to get relief from this disease that they went to Colorado some years ago. I’ll brave the storms of Ohilkoot Pass, I’ll cross the plains of frozen glass, I’ll leave my wife and cross the sea, Rather than be without Rocky
Mountain Tea.
B. F. Fendig.
