The Somerset herald: (Somerset, Pa.) 1870-1936: August 02, 1876
On Tuesday last, on entering the car at the Somerset depot, preparatory to making
the afternoon trip to Mineral Point, Conductor Sanner discovered the lifeless
remains of Dr. Ed. Connelly. Dr. Connelly was widely known over the county and at
one time had quite a lucrative practice at New Centreville. He was a man of decided
ability in his profession, but the demon of intemperance got the better of him and
he fell. A jury was summoned by Justice Ogle and an inquest held over the remains.
The verdict was in accordance with the facts given above. While it cannot be said
that Dr. Connelly was universally regretted yet all who knew him feel that it is a
sad, sad ending of a life that might have been useful and honorable. At the time of
his death be was in his fifty-first year. The remains were interred in the lower
church yard on Wednesday.
