Sad Death of a Little Boy, Member of an Immigrant Party.
Coroner Kyser was called to Oakville Wednesday evening and found a most distressing case for his attention. Edward Hartley, with his aged mother and four small children, were mourning over the body of Hartley's thirteen-year-old son, Albin, who had died by the roadside. The little party had driven, in a wagon, from Eugene, Oregon, and were on their way to Vacaville, where they have friends and expect to work curing fruit. They had no tent, but slept in the wagon and stopped to cook their meals wherever time overtook them.
The boy, Albin, had been sick with dysentery for several days. At Calistoga a doctor had given him some medicine, but it gave him little relief. The party stopped near the Benson place Wednesday afternoon, and the sick boy got out of the wagon. When he tried to climb into the vehicle again he fainted from exhaustion. They laid him beside the road, and in a few minutes he expired.
Coroner Kyser and Constable Gibbs took the body to Yountville, and Rev. Edgman permitted them to put it in the church. The family, who are destitute, were brought to Yountville, and Rev. Edgman collected food for them. The boy's body will be interred in the county plot in the Yountville cemetery.
