Murder of GEORGE ETTENBROUGH.---This occurred in Berryessa Valley, July 28,
1860, and the deed, which was said to have been a very cold-blooded one, was
perpetrated by Thomas Lofton. The difficulty grew out of a dispute about a tract
of land, and Lofton had a navy revolver with which he shot his victim. He had,
besides this revolver, a rifle, and the citizens and officers were unable to
arrest him, hence he made good his escape.
