Mr. Kane was a switchman, fireman and engineer on the Northwestern railroad for many years but had to retire from train work on account of the condition of his health. He was genial and warm hearted and was a most likable gentleman. He was employed in the census department for some time but of late years conducted a grocery store at Clinton. All who knew him as a boy and young man in this vicinity and who cherished his friendship and his other redeeming qualities will learn with deep sorrow of his death.
