Deceased was born in County Kerry, Ireland, and came to this country about sixty-five years ago, residing the greater part of that time in Dubuque county. For many years he followed farming and was well known throughout Dubuque and Jackson Counties. He was a man of remarkably vigorous intellect,and his memory was unimpaired up to a short time before his demise. He was well acquainted with Daniel O'Connell, the Irish statesman, took great delight in recounting the great events in the famous man's career and few men were better posted on the history of Ireland. Only five years younger than the present century, he kept pace with it until he could see it about to fade into the 20th, when he closed his eyes and fell into the slumber that is dreamless. He was a true Christian and an honest man. He is survived by three nieces, Mrs. Hickson, Miss Leahy and Mrs. Tim Dillon of this city. [ Dubuque Herald , April 4, 1895,Page 8, Co.5]>>>>
