It is with the deepest regret that we have to announce the death of one of our most: popular and beloved citizens,Alonzo D.

In 1840 he went to Florida where he remained for a few years, being engaged in merchandising with his brother. In 1853 he arrived in San Francisco with a large stock of nursery trees,and the same year entered the employ of Wells, Fargo & Co., and. was the first messenger ever employed by that company, his route being on the boa's running between San Francisco and Sacramento. In 1857 he succeeded Charles H. Mead as agent for the company in this city, and held the position up to the time of his decease. In October, 1865, he married Miss Helen Virginia Smith, sister of Mrs. Henry Mackie, who survives him. They were blessed with three children—two girls and one boy.
