Norfolk Virginian  February 8, 1887
The announcement of the death of John E. Doyle, Esq., will be received with regret 
by the community in which he has lived so long, and was so respected.
For many years of his life, Mr. Doyle was one of our most active and enterprising 
business men and, before the war, bore a prominent part in the institution of the 
railroad system whose fruits are now to be seen in the position Norfolk enjoys as 
the second cotton port of the South.
(Parts are illegible) ... Mr. Doyle has not min- ... business pursuits, but they 
speak to the goodness of the man and the charity of his nature. He was a man of 
the finest sensibilities and warmest temperament, and we remember to have heard no 
more graceful or grateful tribute than that which he paid a few months ago to the 
memory of Henry A. Wise.
In his death, we have lost a citizen who well and faithfully served his city and 
State and who, in the relations of public and of private life, entitled himself to 
the respect and affection of all who knew him.
