Killing of Patrick Goodwin.—Goodwin had some harness in the American livery stable in Napa City, of 
which C. H. H. Manuel was the proprietor. On the 7th of September, 1866, Goodwin went to the stable 
to see about it, when an altercation arose between the men. Finally Manuel grasped a shovel and 
struck Goodwin over the head with it, inflicting an injury, from the effects of which he died the 
following Monday. Manuel was arrested and bailed for the trifling sum of $500, and of course left for 
parts unknown.
