Dickinson and was numbered 1,263;759 hue, and weighed 17 33-100 ounces. It is believed that he was murdered by some of his counryman, as Mr. Dickinson says that he saw a couple of them hanging around and looking in his door while he was running the bar, and as Tong Wah started for Boise city on foot they evidently watched his movements and followed him, or waylaid him, as he was shot in the back of the head.
