Brown, Nat continued:
insinuating and fascinating way with him, had on when he left an
elegant suit, and took a change of gorgeous apparel with him in a
carpet sack, besides a handful of double eagles in his pocket. Should
he get to turning over fruit stands and smashing street lamps, his
subs request for the sake of his connections that the APPEAL and
EXPRESS locals make no notice of the short comings or else pack the
delinquencies upon some rambunctious cuss from San Bernardino.

Brown, Silas F. — DT October 26, 1871 p2c3: Suicide of Si Brown. Silas F.
Brown, a native of Kentucky, about 49 years of age, by profession a
lawyer, committed suicide at Virginia City on the 23rd inst., on the
top of the International Hotel, by shooting himself with a pistol. He
had became very dissipated lately, on account of family troubles, and
has threatened several times during the past few days to commit
suicide. He had placed the muzzle of the pistol in his mouth and probably died instantly. He has been in the State of Nevada since 1860,
and in Virginia City for six or eight years. He was a veteran of the
Mexican war, having served in a Kentucky regiment under General Yell.
He leaves a wife and three children. Brown was formerly a resident
of Nevada City and was at one time foreign miners' tax collector. He
had a brother Philip in Kentucky, that he had requested that he take
care of his daughter. The Coroner's jury verdict was that the deceased
was a native of Scynthiana, Harrison county, Kentucky, that he was 49
years of age, and came to his death by a pistol shot fired by his own
hand. Deceased leaves a wife and three children, one his own and two
his wife's by a former husband in Virginia City. He was a man highly
esteemed byall who knew him, but drink brought on family troubles, and
his wife having applied for a divorce fran him, he seems to have made
up his mind to at once rid himself of life and all its perplexities.
