The deceased was amongst the early settlers of Cambria county, and took his full share in subduing the forests, and clearing out the highway of what is now, one of the most prosperous portions of the Commonwealth. Until death, he bore with him as honest a heart as ever beat beneath the bosom of an Irishman. Throughout a long life, and amid a variety of phases of fortune, he had the reputation of an honest and true man. His life was full of vicissitudes; but his character was always sound. The young, who knew him, sorrow that he is dead, the old, feel in his death the loss of a brother. The people of Cambria county will live long before they consign to the grave a better man than Dennis Brawley, Sr. Peace to his ashes.
