0ese. became known that a seriou
eftenso had taken place, and what was
at first con+idered a trifling wound
,arty gave the doctors great cause fo
alarm for their patient. Dray by day
kir. Brown grew weaker, and it was
then made known that mortification
had set in, aud that but little hope wa
entertained of his ultimate recovery
During his illness his wife and Miss
Brown, aged seventeen, were hie faith
fill attendants, the latter a few days
ago became thoroughly prostrated, a
was reluctantly compelled to 1e,ave the
bedside of her father. On 'KTiintrsaay
afternoon last the sufferer was so low
that it was thought a few hours at the
most eras his allotted terra of life
Then, for the first time. his sorrowing
relatives were sutnmoued' to the bed
side of the dying man. A few hour
rest followed sled with it a renewed lease
of life. On Friday there was little i
any change in the condition of the
patient. He wits blessed with even
flickering moments of oonsciousahess
during which he sm•ilaal a recognition
to his faithful untiring wife, who wa
ever near at hand to smooth the pillow
aud attend the wants of her dyicg hits
band. On. Saturday the doctors saw
the end was near, and a few fleeting
hours and Canada's great statesman
and journalist would bave passed from
this sphere. What was hourly looked
for came at last a few minutes pas:
two o'clock this morning. His life
went out with the incoming of the
morning, unconscious and free from
pain, and surrounded by these whom
he had loved, his spirit passed geutly
away. Although death was hourly ex -
petted for some days past, the- shook
to the public wheu it . did Dome was
none the lose severe. A. heavy gloom
overspread the city, and kindly sympa-
thizing heart throbs went out for the
afflicted and sorrowing relatives. Flags
were fleeted at half-mast from all pub-
lic buildings nut of respect to the mem-
ory of the honored dead. Mention was
matte of the sad event from. the pulpits
of the oity churches, and prayers were
offered up for those who claimed him
as a husbsnd and father. During the
day the streets leading to Mr. Brown's
house were densely thronged by pedes-
trians. 'Those who called, however
were principallycler€ymenand iutimate
friends of the deceased. The sorrow
expreesed is universal. That a useful
life should`be cut short by a worthless,
drunken vagabond causes feeling to run
high against the assassin. The rela-
tives were in hourly receipt of sympa-
thizing messages from those !nail in of-
fice both in Canada and the Old Coun-
try.
