San Mateo County Gazette Redwood City, San Mateo County, California Saturday Morning, October 13, 1860, , Vol. 2 No. 28 BIRTH On Wednesday, 10th instant, the wife of S.M. MEZES, Esq., of a daughter. PENISHMENT. - C. Prior, so notorious for wife whipping and general disorderly conduct, was, on Wednesday night last, seized by several persons, and dragged by means of a rope fastened about his body several times through the mud and water of the slough at this place, as a punishment for his misdeeds. If such a procedure is pardonable under any circumstances, it certainly was in this. Prior has long been a disgrace to the town, as well as to humanity. FOR COUNTY JUDGE. - Bernard Peyton, Esq., of Canada Raymundo, is mentioned by a number of citizens of San Mateo county as an independent candidate for County Judge. He is spoken of as a gentleman in every way worthy the confidence of the people, and as being peculiarly fitted for the responsible office for which his friends are recommending him. Next week a formal announcement of the nomination, together with a list of the names of citizens proposing him, will probably be published. TEMPERANCE MOVEMENTS. - On last Saturday evening, the officers of Mountain Dell Division, for the ensuing term, were duly installed; at Temperance Hall, Woodside.
