Only a few minutes before he breathed his last he drank a cup of tea and seemed as well as usual. The deceased came to Brunswick from Ireland 40 years ago and has lived here since. Mr. Mahoney was a man of considerable popularity and means. He leaves a wife and five children: John, William, Mary, Julia and Annie. The first named resided in Florida, while the others lived with him here. Mr. Will Mahoney is in Albany, having left here last night. The funeral will occur Sunday. The Brunswick Call; Sunday 13 February 1898; pg. 1 col. 2 TODAY’S FUNERAL—Mr. T. Mahoney Will Be Laid to Rest This Afternoon. The funeral of Mr. Timothy Mahoney will occur from the Catholic church at 2:30 o’clock this afternoon, and the services will be conducted by Rev. P.J. Luckie. The hundreds of friends of the deceased were shocked yesterday morning when they read THE CALL of the sudden death. For the past few days Mr. Mahoney has been complaining of a pain in the heart, but the family as well as himself thought it was indigestion and did not feel alarmed and his death fell like a thunder clap upon them. As was stated yesterday the deceased has been a resident of Brunswick for the past 40 years and he has always been an upright honest citizen, a consistent member of the Catholic church, a loving father and kind husband. It is said by those who were near to him, that he never said a word against a man in his life. For many years Mr. Mahoney has been section master for the B & W railroad but resigned some weeks ago, he having reached that age which made the work too hard for him, he being nearly 70 years of age. To the bereaved family THE CALL tenders its sympathy. The following gentlemen will act as pall bearers: R.E. Briesenick, Thos. O’Connor, C. McGarvey, W.R. Osborne, C.W. Floyd, M. Verdery, A.C. Shannon, F. Joerger. The Brunswick Call; Tuesday 15 February 1898; pg. 1 col. 2 FUNERAL SATURDAY—The remains of Mr. Timothy Mahoney were interred in Palmetto cemetery Sunday afternoon.
