Death of Michael Eagan.

  Yesterday morning at 3.30 o'clock Michael Eagan died at his home, No. 
2217 Eleventh avenue, aged 52 years.  He leaves a wife and four 
children, two daughters and two sons.  Mr. Eagan was an old soldier of 
the late war, having served three years as a member of company G, 
Eleventh Pennsylvania cavalry.  For many years he was a freight 
conductor on the Pennsylvania railroad and as such was both widely and 
favorably known.  He was a faithful member of St. John's Roman Catholic 
congregation, and his many friends will learn with regret of his death.
