Brush, John S.

 

  On Sunday evening, November 26, 1865, an old man was picked up on the street and taken to the First District lock-up for lodging.

 

  His clothes are ragged and dirty, his feet bare, and he presents a touching picture of want and misery, combined with feeble old age.  His long, silky white locks float about a head of noble proportions, that was once the seat of vigorous and powerful intellect, and which must still command the involuntary respect of all who see him.  His worldly goods consist of an old bag containing a few oranges and one or two other trifles.
