BADLY HURT IN
AUTO ACCIDENT
GOLD HILL, Feb. 1 1. (Speclull.
The old O. A. R. man, A. R. Dunham
who came to . Gold Hill about five
years ago and left last week for Oma
ha, Neb., overland via Los Angeles
had a very serious mishap with his
Buick on the other side of tho Slski
yous and is now laid up at Hombroolc
for a few days making repairs. Ho
lost control of his auto which went
over the grade and how ho ever
escaped with his lite his rescuers are.
unable to explains. The machine1
after turning over landed against. a'
large tree which prevented It fromi
going on down the mountain side to
destruction. . He . recently came bade
to Gold Hill from a year's stay i ri
southern California where he went
after the death of his wife in Gold'
Hill about a year ago. .... -,
The passing away of the doceaaed
wifo, Melissa Catherine Dunham at'
the age of 84 years, recalled an Inci
dent of the late Civil war. Mrs. Dun
ham, whose maiden name was Hanii'.- T
ton, was at the rear of the battlo of '
Shiloh acting in tho capacity of an
army nurse rendering aid to tlio
wounded. After the battle she started
for her home in Qulncy, III., with
three of her brothors and her father,
who all died enroute from the effects
of wounds. Three sets of twlnB were
born to tho Dunhams and all died in
Infancy.
Mr. Dunham also took part in the
same war, enlisting in companyll iiotli
regiment New York cavalry. He Is
the only survivor of the Elk New York
Light artillery battery L, who fired
the national salute on the death of
President Lincoln, '. .
The old soldier will join his brother
at Omaha whom he has not seen for
fifty-eight years. From there he and
his brother will take a trip overland'
to their boyhood home In Tlogo coun
ty, New York. Before leaving he sold
his home in Gold Hill, but left some
property here that will likely brins
him back to his old fishing haunts oh
