Nov. 4, 1920. "MIKE DOYLE". -- Mike Doyle, Sr., died at his home in Imogene, Sunday, October 24, at 4 o'clock, age 84 years. He was born in county Kelkeny, Ireland in 1836. He was married when a young man to Miss Anna Quinn. He moved to Dubuque county, Iowa, in 1861. He afterwards moved to Fremont county 43 years ago, and lived on a farm until about 26 years ago when he moved to town. His wife died seven years ago. Since then he lived alone, taking his meals at Mrs. Maher's, his next door neighbor. His health became worse, and someone had to care for him up to the time of his death. His niece, Nellie Lynch was his constant companion. The funeral was held at St. Patrick's church Wednesday morning at 9 o'clock, conducted by Father Hayes, assisted by Father O'Donnell of Hamburg and Father Portell of Red Oak. Burial was in Mt. Calvary cemetery. He was an active, robust man all of his life until he took sick last spring. All that medical skill could do was done for him, but nothing availed. The following relatives from a distance were there to attend the funeral: Joe, Pat and Michael Doyle of Omaha, Mr. and Mrs. M. McAndrews of Omaha, Mrs. Phil Ormand and two children of Omaha, Mr. and Mrs. Nick Spellman of Omaha, the ladies being nieces of the deceased and the boys were nephews. Also there were: Fred Doyle, wife and three children of Omaha; Dan Hurley of Omaha. The pallbearers were James Laughlin, John McGinnis, Jerry Doyle, Richard Maher, Pete Doyle and Mike McCardle.
