90 APRIL 9 & 10, 1872 GRASS VALLEY UNION
the case, which will be elicited on Friday next, at an examination to be held that day. Daws is under
bonds of $3,000 to appear at the time for examination.
CONVICTED.—Yesterday Madam Courtade, was convicted before Justice Rolfe, of
keeping a house of prostitution. For a long time past her house on Broad street has been
a great nuisance and it is hoped that the result of this conviction will prevent it in the
future.—Nevada Transcript.
Prevent it! Prevent what? Convictions are generally not preventatives.
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 10, 1872
DIED. At Grass Valley, April 9th, 1872, PHILIP THOMAS MITCHELL, aged 21 years, 1
month and 1 day, a native of Cornwall, England. The funeral will take place from the
Congregational Church, to-day, at 2 o’clock P.M.
FOUND DEAD.—Yesterday’s Transcript says: “A colored man who resides about one and a
half miles below Newtown, and known as old Mike, was found dead in his bed Sunday
morning. He has been sick several years and when the neighbors left him the night before,
they thought he was quite comfortable.”
LOCAL BREVITIES.—E. F. Bean and John I. Ginn issued their first Chronicle on Monday
evening, at Virginia City, as we learn from a telegram.
Sweetland is to have a new school house, if the tax-payers can stand 70 cents on the $100.
INSANE.—Deputy Sheriff Cross, of Truckee, yesterday passed through Grass Valley having in
charge an insane man. The lunatic is very violent and wants to kill somebody. The unfortunate is well
known here as “Frenchy,” and his true name is Girard, as we understand. He will be sent, no doubt,
to Stockton.
CONDITION OF ROGERS.—The man Rogers who was wounded by a blow with a pick on
Sunday afternoon was better yesterday than he has been since he received his wound. He may get
well, but a pick driven into the lungs from the back makes an ugly wound.
