JOHN W DAILY KILLED IN MINE - The Evening Times; Cumberland, Allegany Co, MD - 
January 27, 1908, pg 2, col 3 - Lonaconing Md, Jan 27
John W Dailey, son of Mr and Mrs. Michael Dailey of Franklin was instantly 
killed in Fahey's mine by a fall of rock at about 8 p.m. Friday night.  Mr. 
Dailey, Joseph Stone and John Franklin were loading the last car of the shift, 
when apiece of rock fell from the roof, striking Mr. Dailey on the head and 
crushed him to the ground.  Stone and Franklin fled for their lives and gave 
the alarm.  When assistance came it was found that another piece of rock had 
fallen on the first.  When the unfortunate man was released, it was found that 
he was dead.  The body was taken to the residence of Michael Dailey in Franklin 
where deceased  had been boarding.  The coroner came up from Cumberland and 
made inquiry as to the cause of death, but did not deem it necessary to summon 
a jury.
Deceased is survived by his wife and three very young children, who reside at 
Borden Shaft.  His father and mother and brothers.  Frank at Westernport; 
Lloyd, George, Patrick and Thomas and sisters, Annie Josephine and Mary.  The 
funeral took place this morning with a solemn requiem mass at the Catholic 
church.  Father Heath officiating.  Interment was made in the Catholic cemetery 
at Westernport.  It was a very large funeral.

IN MEMORIAM- The Evening Times; Cumberland, Allegany Co, MD - January 30, 1908, 
pg 2, col 5.
I write this in memory of John William Dailey.  As a friend in need, he never 
would fail you.  His heart, hand and money were to charity given.  Peace to his 
ashes.  May his soul rest in Heaven.
His comrade, Dan.
