DEATH of a PROMINENT CITIZEN -- Captain John McMULLIN, long a resident of San Joaquin county, and a highly respected gentleman, died at his residence in Castoria township, at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, of typhoid fever. He was a native of Maryland, aged about 45 years. He came to California in June, 1849, and settled first on Wood's Creek, Tuolumne county, and in 1854 removed to San Joaquin, where he has since resided. Captain McMULLEN [spelled 2 ways] was a gentleman of high character and sterling worth. He leaves a wife and 9 children to mourn his death. The sadness occasioned by the loss of a loving husband and an indulgent father is shared by the community at large, who deeply sympathize with the family in their bereavement. The funeral takes place from the First Presbyterian Church in this city, at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
