Galena, Illinois Items-

Mr. Reuben Dye, a miner, was taken sick recently with congestive chills at the
New California Diggings and was unable to return home. His son George, orderly
in the 45th (Lead Mine) Illinois Regiment, went to visit him last Sunday. When
crossing Small Pox Bridge, six miles out, his horse became frightened and threw
him, and one of his feet being caught in the stirrup, dragged him several rods
on the frozen ground, fracturing the skull so that he lived but a few minutes.
His father died on Monday last. Both were the only support of a large family.
