Death of Robert McKEE.

The large circle of friends here in this county and elsewhere will
exceedingly regret to hear of the death of Robert McKEE announced in
this paper, which occurred in San Francisco on the 16th instant. He had
been sick for a year or two last. He had been sick for a year or two
last past, and from the commencement he gradually grew worse until
relived by death. For many years he was identified with the interests of
this community. He was connected with the mercantile business of Sulivan
& Co. of Coulterville, during which time he married, and afterwards
moved to San Francisco and became a partner with BOCQUERAZ & SHEA,
wholesale dealers in liquors at the corner of Front and Jackson streets,
where he gradually acquired wealth and has, as we understand, left his
family in comfortable circumstances. We hope to be able at some future
time to give a more extended account of his last illness and the
situation in which he left his family and worldly matters. He was at an
early day a member of the Odd Fellows Lodge of this place, and since of
the California Pioneers. He was a native of Belfast, Ireland, aged 58
years.
