Mr. BLANFORD of Australia, is now the owner of the S.H. SHAW place, near
Sonoma.

A good deal of interest is being taken in the coming glove contest
between Jim ROACH of San Francisco and Jim SULLIVAN of Glen Ellen. The
contest, which will come off at Union Hall next Saturday evening,
promises to be one of endurance and skill, as both men are gamy and
scientific boxers.

John A. BEASLEY, who owns a ranch a few miles north of Sonoma, met with
a peculiar accident while on a visit to San Francisco, last Monday. On
the evening of that day during a fit of coughing, he swallowed his
false-teeth. He commenced to choke and gag and in a half-suffocated
condition made his way to the Receiving Hospital for treatment and in a
short time he was relieved, the artificial masticators having dropped
down into his stomach, where they now repose. John can now get another
set, and, what with one set in his mouth and one set in his stomach, he
ought to be able to masticate and digest a Sonoma beefsteak without
complaining of dyspepsia.

John ULRICH, of San Francisco, has purchased Chas. PRIDHAM'S ranch in
Dry Creek, for $1,025.
*******
The will of Clavin E. WHITNEY, who was killed in San Francisco, on the
27th ult., was filed for probate last week. The estate is appraised at
$160,000. in real property alone.

Mrs. COOK, who died so suddenly at Valley Ford, on Saturday, was not
buried until Monday, owing to an impression that the cause was one of
suspension of animation. However, she was buried yesterday.
*****
Mr./Mrs. August KUCK celebrated the 10th anniversary of their wedding at
the Oaklawn House, Saturday evening. Only a few invited friends were
present and a most enjoyable time was had. Piano and violin music was in
attendance and some very fine selections were played.

A wedding reception was held on Tucker St., Thursday evening for Rufus
H. GAINES and his new wife, who were married a few hours previous, at
the home of the brides parents in San Francisco. (story pg. 3 col. 6)

December 24, 1891 issue:

John CLARK, a nephew of supervisor CLARK, died at Forestville on the
13th inst. He leaves a widow and one child. The deceased was taken to
Tehama County for burial.

Judge Thomas P. STOREY died rather suddenly in San Francisco, last
Saturday. He was a pioneer of the State, an able lawyer and had many
warm friends in this and Napa County.

A.H. KNAPP, a prominent merchant of Bloomfield, and one of the oldest
residents of the county, died at Hollister Thursday morning. The funeral
took place at Bloomfield last Saturday.

Edward SCHULTZ, one of Cloverdales most prominent citizens, died at his
home last week. He was universally held in high esteem and leaves many
friends. He was born in N.Y. and was aged 80y.

Judge R.E. HUNTER, after a short illness, died near Glen Ellen last
Wednesday and was buried in Mountain Cemetery, Sonoma, on Wednesday. The
deceased was an old pioneer, having come to Cal. in 1849. He built the
first dry dock in San Francisco, and Hunter's Point in that city was
named after him. Mr. HUNTER was a prominent man in the early history of
Cal. and was well-known in this county. The deceased has been a resident
of Glen Ellen for several years and lived with his daughter, Mrs. Chas.
JUSTI, he was aged 72y. (Democrat)

Another good citizen has gone to sweet eternity. Jesse Hutchins VAUGHAN
peacefully passed from this life, at his house on East St., on Monday,
having succumed to kidney trouble. He was one of Healdsburgs oldest
residents and his friends were legion. Mr. VAUGHAN was born in Jackson
Co., Mo., Aug. 11, 1836. He removed to Cal. at the age of 20 years,
during the gold boom and settled in this valley. On May 5, 1870, he was
married to Ludie Francis BELL, and made his home in this city, where he
entered into the livestock business. A wife and son, Marvin T., survive
him. The remains were interred at Oak Mound Cemetery yesterday, under
the auspices of the lodges of F.& A.M. and A.O.U.W., and the cortege was
very large.
******
John W. WARD and Cassie MULGREW, both of this city, were married in
Santa Rosa yesterday.
*****
Judge SEAWELL, of Santa Rosa, is dying. He has been suffering from
kidney troubles for some time past and his condition now is beyond all
medical aid, all his children are at his bedside.

N.W. BOSTWICK, formerly of this city, whose Hotel in Boonville,
Mendocino co., was destroyed by fire recently, is building a larger and
much more handsome Hotel at the same place. It will be one of the
largest in that part of the State.

The following appeared in the San Francisco Chronicle a few days ago:
Two families, representing four generations, arrived on the overland
yesterday and left in the afternoon for Healdsburg, where they intend in
the future to reside. H.D. CLARKE and relatives, arrived from Macon, Mo.
They include, Mrs. E. DUFFY, 80y, who is a great-grandmother of Mrs.
DECKER'S pair of twins. This is the fifth pair in the DECKER family.
G.S. DECKER and wife, and three relatives are from Kansas City. They are
supplied with means and state that they intend purchasing ranches if
Healdsburg suits them. Mr. CLARKE and family arrived here Friday evening
and will probably make Healdsburg their permanent home. The gentleman is
a practical machinist and will pursue that trade while in the midst of
us.
