JOHN BROWN'S FAMILY. wire DAUGHTEE OF THE HERO STRUGGLING AGAINST POVERTY. San Jose (Cal) Mercury, March 30, There reside on & small farm in the foothills near Saratoga, in this county, the widow and daughter of one of the most noted men of modern history John Brown, the martyr champlon of who lost his life in through his stardy and plous zeal In behalf of the slaves whom he sought tw liberate. The widow s aboat 70 years of age, the barden of whose support falls upon the daoghter, s worthy and caltured lady, who is illy fitted for the rongh farm work which she 1s obliged to per- form. Bat she performs her alloted tasks uncomplainiogly, and both mother and dsughter would be reason- AND # | ably happy aud contented, as well Independent, bat for the shadow of debt that hangs over their little home and the extrs efforts they are com- pelled to put forth to meet their monthly Interest. Their home is mort- gaged for $10C0, which, it wonld seem to us, there oaght to be noble patriot hearts enough in this state to assume and pay off, and thereby leave these worthy women free from the embarass: ments which now weigh them down. It should ba done for his sake—the geand old man of Kansas fame, the hero-martyr for freedom, who died that this Unlon, purified of the foul staln of human alavery, might live ! Tt has been suggested that the good peaple of San Jose get them ap some sort of & benefit to help them out of thelr embarrassment. In the mean ttme there may be some neble souls who read these lines who would be made richer in their own lives by the performance of another generous act, and who woald contribute to their re- lief. Any monies forwarded to the Bank of San Jose or to the First Na- tional Gold Bank of this city, or to this office, will be religionaly applied to the object intended, and the do- nor's names will evermore be en- shrined in the gratetul remembrance of the widow and daaghter of Joha ‘Henry W.
