THE WORK OF THE DEATH ANGEL.
Those Who Have Crossed the Dark River.

MR. J. W. COGAN.

  Mr. J. W. Cogan, after an illness of about two weeks, died at his 
residence, on Seventh street, early on Friday morning, of hemorrhage of 
the bowels, in the 35th year of his age.  For a number of years 
deceased held the position of local freight conductor on the H. & 
B.T.R.R., and by his strict attention to duty and his kindness of 
manger, had won the confidence and esteem of his employers, and the 
respect and friendship of his fellow employes.  He was an active member 
of the Independent Hook and Ladder Company, and as a tribute to his 
memory the larger part of the entire fire department of the city 
attended his funeral in a body.  A wife and two children survive him.
