Mr. S. C. Foy of Los Angeles dropped into our sanctum this morning to deny the twice repeated assertion that since the American occupation no man has been legally executed for murder in Los Angeles county. He says that in 1854 or '5, he served upon a jury which found Felipe Alvitre guilty of murder and the prisoner was condemned and executed. Sheriff James Barton officiating assisted by undersheriff William Osborne. It was soon after this execution that the Vigilantes turned out and hanged Dave Brown, a desperado to whom they despaired of the law's doing justice.

The Benevolent Society of Anaheim has regular monthly meetings and has accomplished considerable good. Ladies are constantly visiting and searching new cases of need. In one case they found the mother of Mrs. Besentes Orantes. The old lady died last Sunday at the age of 110. Her family was among the aristocracy of Mexico. She was well educated, refined and wealthy, and in her youth danced at many a festival, clad in satin and adorned with costly jewels, but ended her days in poverty, blessed only by the attentions of her faithful daughter.
