Just before etiring for the night he took a sponge bath, and when Mrs, Buffing! ent into the bed room she found ying upon the bed unconscfous. Dr. Muller was sent for but found that he was beyond all medical aid. ; Mr. Baffington was universally. esteemed by the people, and there isa general expression of sorrow. For twelve years Mr. Buttington was a member of the Oounty Board of Supervisors, for eight yeurs being the President of the Board. He was a native of Rhode Island, where he was born in 1849, in «hich year his father; J. M. Buffington, Sr., came to this State, and was one of the most distinguished and successfal of the Argonauts, In 1852 the family came to this State and hence the: late lamented J. M. Buffington, Jr., grew ap and received his education here, living successively in Stockton and San Francisco during his younger days. In 1866 he went to sea, remaining on the water for a short time. After his' return he came to the mines, being first with the Burrington Bill Hydraalic Company, and later . for two years i.with the Little-York Cémpany, whose operatione-at that time were conducted on’ a very extensive scale. Mr. Buffington then returgued to San Francisco and became cashier with the firm of Crocker & Gurnett, which position he held until he came to the Wyoming mine as superintendent.

They immediately set about}: affairs in a practical. way, erecting powerfal hoisting engines, pumps and} works, costing a large sum of money, everything being done with a view to permanency. For many years a force 6f one hundred mén’ was employed, the pay roll amounting to over $6,000 a month. It is estimated that the mine has yielded since its firat working over two. million dollars in gold, a large ‘proportion of which was distributed among the wage-sarning class. The underground workings are very extensive, the total length inclading many miles of tuonels, drifts, ete., while the ‘vein. was opened by many sbafts. While eupe-intendent ofthis mine in 1889, Mr. Buffington was-elected ae a member of the Board of Supervisors, and he performed the duties of the offics with great ability. He was untiring in its duties and maps of the valuable improvements made during hie incnmbency in office, such as the remodeling of the Oourt House, new bridges, etc’, are largely attributed to him. Mr. Buffington was personally largely interested in horticulture, having a fine orchard of fruits of all kinds which did well at his beautiful place near the Wyoming mine, ~ He was also interested in raising fine stock of various kinds. 3 Mr. Bofflington married in 1875 ‘Miss Hattie Rolfe, daughter of one of our most highly esteemed citizens, I.
