Michael Kearney,

An aged resident of this city, died of a complication of diseases, at
7 o'clock yesterday morning, at his home, 1709 Seventh avenue, aged 78
years.  The deceased was born in County Donegal, Ireland, and came to
this city in 1849, having previously married Miss Bridget McColgan.
After residing for ten years in Cambria county they removed to this
city, where Mrs. Kearney died several years ago.  Four children
survive to mourn their loss, as follows: Bernard of this city, Daniel
of Seattle, Washington, Mrs. Stephen McDonnell of 1705 Seventh avenue,
and Miss Mary Kearney at home.  Up until Tuesday last Mr. Kearney
worked for the P.R.R.  He was a member of the Sacred Heart Catholic
church and had all its rites administered before his death.  The
remains will be taken to Wilmore on Johnstown express tomorrow
morning, where, after the usual services in St. Bartholomew's church,
they will be interred.
