Death of James O'Connell- 
The sudden death of James O'Connell, one of the most popular young men of the
Garry Owen parish, occurred at six o'clock p. m., August 16th. He was the oldest
son of Mr. and Mrs. William O'Connell. Some time since the young man had the
measles, but before entirely recovering, he caught a severe cold which settled
in his lungs, and the result was quick consumption, a short illness, and his
surprisingly sudden death. Mr. O'Connell was born near Garry Owen twenty-five
years, ago. He had many friends, owing to his genial and agreeable disposition.
A year ago last February his brother, William, died after a brief illness and
this second visitation of death in the family is a heavy burden for the
afflicted parents and their cup of sorrow is indeed, filled to overflowing. The
deceased is survived by his parents, brother Timothy, and sisters, Josie and
Nora. The funeral, which was held on Monday morning at St. Patrick's church,
Garry Owen, was one of the largest held in many years. Solemn high mass was
celebrated by Rev. Lonergan, assisted by Revs. Kelly and McNamara. Interment was
made in the church cemetery. The pall bearers were John Burke, Joe Noonan, Frank
Boyle, Ben Donovan, W. Leonard and W. Donovan.
