Mrs. James Ahern,
We regret to learn that Mrs. Jas. Ahern, of Kerrisdale, of which place she was an old and much esteemed resident, died on the 4th instant, aged 73 years. Deceased lady, who was a native of Tipperary, Ireland, came to this country many years ago, and, with her husband and family, settled in the district named about 30 years ago. She was deservedly very highly respected, and much sympathy is felt with the bereaved husband and family. Thursday's "Yea Chronicle" says :— The deceased had only been ailing a few weeks, but her demise was not entirely unexpected when her advanced age of 73 years was taken into account. Mrs. Ahearn came to this district many years ago, and for several years was a resident of this township. The funeral, which took place on Sunday, was largely attended, the rites of the Roman Catholic Church being performed at the grave by the Rev. Father O'Reilly.

Sarah (Davidson) Ahern
Mrs. James Ahern died at Tiburon Friday morning after a very short illness. She is the wife of Jimmie Ahern, the engineer on the California Northwestern railway. She was taken sick Thursday afternoon while Ahern was at Mirabel with the picnickers. He was the engineer on the picnic train. From news received here it seems that about time Ahern blew his engine whistle to encourage the racers on the track his wife was being seized by a fatal sickness. She leaves a husband and 2 little children besides brothers and sisters, as follows: James Davidson of Yreka; Mrs. George Sullivan; Misses Ella, Clara, Ruby, and Mary Davidson. Her mother died about a year and half ago. Mrs. Ahern was well known here, where she had resided and her many friends will learn with regret of her demise. It is thought probable the funeral will be held here.
Who Caused Her Death
—The Bulletin says: With her lips sealed as to who gave her the medicine which caused her death, Mrs. SARAH AHERN of Tiburon died suddenly Friday. The circumstances surrounding the case are such that arrest may follow the investigation made by the coroner. Mrs. Ahern is the wife of J. Ahern, who is connected with the California Northwestern railroad, and in the little town of Tiburon had always commanded the respect of all who knew her. Friday morning she was taken suddenly ill and Dr. Florence Scott of Belreden was sent for. The physician discovered that the case was very serious and at once sent for Dr. Dollischon. The two did what was possible to relieve the sufferer, but she died in a few hours after they were called in. Before her death Dr. Scott endeavored to get the patient to tell who was guilty of malpractice, but she would say nothing other than that a friend had given her medicine. After her death, however, Mr. Ahern found a small box and some cards bearing the name of Mrs. J.A. Achard of 415a Third Street, San Francisco. Coroner Eden was notified and held an inquest.

The facts as above stated were brought out, and Dr. W.J. Wickman, the coroner's physician made an autopsy, finding that the woman was a victim of malpractice and that death was due to septicema. James Ahern, the husband, remembered seeing Mrs. Shiland visiting his wife. Mrs. Shiland was called as a witness, and was put through a rigid examination. She admitted calling on Mrs. Ahern, but denied giving her any medicine or attending her. This is the second time she has been called before the coroner's jury. Three years ago she was a witness in a San Francisco case. The jury was given the case and returned a verdict that Mrs. Ahern came to her death from blood poisoning, due to causes unknown. Mrs. Ahern was a native of Petaluma, aged 31 years. [see also: Agnes Jane Ahern, Henry M. Ahern]

All that was mortal of Michael Ahearn, the victim of Sunday's accident, was laid to rest in the Catholic cemtery this Tuesday morning. The services took place in the Immaculate Conception church at 9 o'clock and a delegation from Division 16, A. O. H., escorted the remains from the late home of the deceased, 77 Florence st., to the church and thence to the cemetery. The office of the Marlboro Coal Co., of which Mr. Ahearn was a faithful employe for a number of years, was closed during the services and associates of the deceased attended the obsequies in a body. The firm was represented by C. F. Robinson and F. H. Morse who occupied seats in the rear of the mourners.

The hearse was drawn by the pair of gray horses which were usually driven by the deceased and which were attached to the sprinkling cart when he met his death.

The religious services consisted of a mass of requiem celebrated by Rev. J. P. Sullivan. F. A. McGill sang the Piu Jesu at the offertory. Interment was in the Catholic cemetery. The bearers were C. H. Coughlin, John W. Hutch, D. C. Downey, B. P. Clancy, Martin Gunning and William Fitzgerald, all members of Division 16.

James Ahern
We regret to announce the death of Mr. James Ahern, J.P., a highly-respected resident of the Albion and Hamilton suburbs for the last twelve years, who passed away peacefully at his residence, Albion Park Estate, on Thursday morning. The deceased gentleman, who was a native of Limerick, Ireland, had attained the age of 72. The late Mr. Ahern was a resident of Australia for over fifty years. He resided for many years at Armidale and Braidwood, in the mother State, and bore his full share of the vicissitudes of pioneer life in the early days. On two occasions while carrying on business on the gold-fields he was "balled up" by bushrangers, and on one occasion, while guarding his property, one of the bushrangers stretched him unconscious by a blow from the butt end of a revolver.

He came to Queensland twenty years ago, and for some years carried on grazing in the Peak Downs district. For the last ten years he has retired from business, and lived a quiet life, respected by all who knew him. The deceased gentleman, who was a magistrate of the territory for many years, was highly cultured, and is said to have been one of the ripest Greek scholars in Australasia. He leaves a widow and grown-up family of three sons and three daughters, of whom two are married. The eldest of the daughters is the wife of Mr. J. V. McCarthy, the editor of the "Toowoomba Chronicle," and the youngest is Mrs. G. D. De Silva, of South Brisbane. It is a noteworthy fact that his decease is the first death in his family for a period covering forty-three years.

Thomas Ahearn
   Lyons and her citizens were considerably shocked and grieved, last Tuesday, when they learned of the sudden death, from heart disease, of Thomas Ahearn, which occurred in Longmont, December 17, 1901 at noon.
   Only his most intimate friends here knew that he was troubled with his heart, and his death came as a sad blow. It was known that he had been ailing for several days, but on Monday morning, when, in company with William Thorne, he drove down to Longmont to consult Dr. Sard Weist, it was thought that he was considerably better. He ate quite a hearty meal at Longmont, Monday noon, and when Mr. Thorne left him to return to Lyons, Tom was feeling quite himself.
   In the evening his old malady returned, though, and the pain in his head was so severe that the poor man became mentally unbalanced, and a nurse had to watch over him constantly. Tuesday morning Dr. Weist telephoned that Tom was worse, and he advised Mrs. Ahearn to come immediately. She and Jack Craig started in a buggy, but they had not much more than got out of town when word came that he was dead. It was a sad reception, indeed, for the wife when she arrived in Longmont. Mrs. Ahearn returned to Lyons that evening and made arrangements to accompany the body of her husband to his old home in Greenville, Pa., where the funeral service and burial will take place.
   The deceased leaves a wife and five children; three sons and two daughters. There also survives him, his mother, four sisters, and three brothers. Mrs. Ahearn's father, Mr. Lyons, will remain here with the children until Mrs. Ahearn returns when the property will be disposed of and all will return to Pennsylvania to live with Mr. Ahearn's mother, this being the wish of the deceased.
   Tom Ahearn was 37 years old last month, and had lived in Lyons about 15 years. He was married 11 years ago, and his wife has lived here with him since that time. He was quite prominent in Boulder county politics and always took a prominent part in everything that was for the best interests of Lyons. He was the chief of the fire department and treasurer of the town of Lyons. The widow and the fatherless children have the sympathy of every citizen of this town in their sad bereavement. —Lyons, Col., Recorder, December 19, 1901.

DEATH OF DAVID AHERN.
One of the Best Known Men In the North End,
Where He Had Lived a Great Many Years.
Mr. David Ahern, a well-known and highly respected resident of St Stephen's parish, died last evening. Mr. Ahern was known to hundreds outside of the vicinity of his residence and was admired by all for his sturdy independence of character and manliness. He was born in Ireland in 1838, and as a young man served during the Crimean war, and for his bravery on many occasions was honored with medals. He came to the United States in the late '50's, and took up his residence in the old St. Vincent parish, which took in the Fort Hill district. At the outbreak of the civil war he offered his services to his adopted country, choosing the navy. He was assigned to the revenue service, at that time a most important branch, and served during the war on the cutter Morris under Capt. Albert Fengar. When the war was over he obtained employment as deputy wharfinger at Long wharf and remained in the employ of the Long Wharf company until his death, a period covering 37 years. Here he came in contact with hundreds of Boston's old-time merchants, as well as with owners and captains of trading vessels, and by all of them he was held in the highest respect.

In 1862 Mr. Ahern married Hannah Cotter. The ceremony was performed by the late Fr. Moran of St. Stephen's church, then pastor of St. Vincent's church on Purchase st. When Fort Hill was torn down they, with most of the people of the district, moved to the North End and became members at St. Stephen's parish, then under Rev. Fr. Haskins.

Several children were born to them, only two of whom now survive, Michael W., employed in the office of the city collector, and Daniel E., employed in the business office of the Globe. During his long residence in the North End Mr. Ahern was known to the people of St. Stephen's as one of its generous supporters and a willing helper of those in need. Most of his contemporaries are already dead, but to those of middle age and to many of the younger people he was known and looked up to as one of the quiet, but effective helpers of the church.

His funeral will take place from his residence, 5 Fleet st., on Saturday morning, when a high mass of requiem will be said for him at St. Stephen's church at 9 o'clock.

MURDERED AHEARN BURIED
West Oakland Oiler Laid to Rest Near Scene of His Death
The body of Michael Ahearn, the steam-shovel oiler of this city, who was murdered near Reno, Nev., in the early part of last week, was buried at Wadsworth, Nevada yesterday. The widow and family of the deceased, who reside at 925 Pine street, were greatly disappointed when they ascertained that the remains had been so summarily disposed of. The widow had ordered the body to be forwarded here and was informed that the instructions would be complied with and that the remains would leave Reno on the Saturday night train. Later the widow was informed that the instructions could not be complied with and that the remains were not in a condition to be shipped and a metallic casket was ordered for their accomodation. Yesterday Undertaker McManus went to the depot to get the remains but the body did not arrive, a casket such as was required not being available. Money which had been coming to the deceased from the Government work in which he was engaged was expended for the interment.

Frank J. Ahern
Frank J. Ahern, a patrolman of the Tenth police district, is dead from an accident so singular that it is doubtful if a similar one ever happened. His revolver, which he carried in his right hip pocket, was discharged by his night stick as he tossed it over his shoulder. The bullet lodged in his right leg. Blood poisoning ensued and he died. The accident occurred on the night of Sept. 5. Ahern had gone to a patrol box at Euclid and Fountain avenue to ring in. As he was standing at the box with the receiver at his ear, he swung his night stick and rapped on the pavement. As the stick rebounded he gave it a toss over his right shoulder. The end struck the hammer of his revolver. It was discharged and the bullet struck him in the leg. The shock caused him to fall.

Although suffering greatly, he drew himself up to the box and sent in an ambulance call, after which he reported to his sergeant what had happened and was relieved. The ambulance took him to the City Hospital. He remained there a week and then as he seemed to be improving he was taken to the home of his mother, Mrs. Margaret Ahern, at 3042 Cass avenue. Ahern was rapidly recovering when a few days ago, blood poisoning set in and he died on Monday at noon. He leaves a wife, Mrs. Eva Ahern, and three sisters and five brothers. Patrolman Ahern had been on the force five years. Until three weeks before the accident he was in the Ninth district. His home was at 2627 Dickson street. He was 27 years old. The funeral will take place Wednesday morning from St. Bridget's Church to Calvary Cemetery. Services will be conducted by Rev. Father Carney.

MRS. O'HERN'S FUNERAL.
———
Held From St. Bonaventure's Church, Allegany, This Morning.
This morning from St. Bonaventure's church, Allegany, occurred the funeral of the late Mrs. Ellen O'Hern, widow of the late Patrick O'Hern of this city. The solemn requiem mass was celebrated at 10 o'clock, the Very Rev. T. F. Hickey, vicar general of the diocese of Rochester, preaching the sermon. Burial was made in the Catholic cemetery near the church.

Yesterday the solemn requiem high mass was celebrated at St. Elizabeth's church, South Sharon, by her four sons, assisted by the neighboring clergy. Her six sons acted as pall bearers. The church was filled by sorrowing relatives and friends.

In his sermon today at St. Bonaventure's church Father Hickey said: “Mr. and Mrs. O'Hern were among the pioneers, who by labor and money assisted materially in erecting the first buildings of St. Bonaventure's college, in which later their first son was raised to the holy priesthood. It is worthy of note that the early priests of St. Bonaventure's, among whom were the present apostolic delegate, Most Rev. Dionide Folconio, were frequent visitors at the O'Hern home. Mrs. O'Hern had a great love for this church and for the Franciscan Fathers and for upwards of fifty years was a devoted member of the Third Order of St. Francis.”

“Christmas 1904, her third son was ordained priest by Rt. Rev. B. J. McQuaid at Rochester. On the following day she had the peculiar happiness of witnessing solemn high mass at St. Patrick's cathedral, celebrated by her four sons and two nephews of the same name, Rev. Maurice and William O'Hern.”

At this time Very Rev. Father Hickey spoke most eloquently of her queenly place among women, as the mother of three priests and a fourth one near ordination.

“Such is the life of one of God's choicest women. Always humble, unassuming and kind towards everyone, she had a solid faith and piety that made her brave any and every sacrifice for the sake of her religion. Though mother of so many vocations, she was never known by a single word to influence any of her children in making a choice in life. Her part was prayer and example, the rest she left to God.”

Mrs. O'Hern was a remarkable woman in many ways. She was born at Daugh, county Kerry, Ireland. In the year 1839, her maiden name being Ellen Casey. She came to this country in the year 1850, when 11 years old. In June, 1857, she was married to her late husband at Cuba, N. Y. [see also: Mary (Casey) O'Hern]

Margaret Ann (Ahern) Randall
Mrs. Margaret Randall died at her home on Center Street on Sunday morning. She had been ailing for a long time having had poor health for several years but of late had apparently been somewhat better. She had taken sick on Friday and on Saturday night her condition became alarming and the end came early on Sunday. Her death was due to no specific cause but her system was entirely run down from frequent illness and hard work. The funeral will be held this afternoon at 2:30 at the First Baptist Church. The deceased whose maiden name was Margaret Ahern was born at Hartford, Conn., on November 1, 1842. She was united in marriage in Sioux City on June 20, 1865 with H. C. Randall. After their marriage they lived at Wheatland, Poneroy, Newell and Fonda. Mr. Randall died at the latter place in 1878. Six children were born to them, four of whom survive.

Mrs. Randall came to LeMars in 1881, with her young children and this has been their home since. Left a widow with a young family her lot was cast in hard places and her chiefest care was to work and bring up her children and provide food and clothing for them. Sickness took from her two of her children and other trials overshadowed her life. She toiled nobly and worked night and day until her children became old enough to help her. She was a devoted mother, a good neighbor and an industrious woman who fought an uphill battle in life with a patience and perserverance worthy of emulation and the stamp of approval. She leaves a son and three daughters to mourn her death. They are Frank Randall, Mrs. John Butler, Mrs. Harley Butler and Mrs. George Butler who all reside here. Frank Randall was at Tryon, Minn. at the time of his mother's death. He was notified by telelgram and came to attend the funeral. Mrs. Randall was a sister of James Ahern of Illinois Central freight depot force and of Mrs. G. C. Grimes of this place.

CAPT. JACK AHERN, A WELL KNOWN RED MAN, DEAD
EMPLOYED BY ONE CONCERN IN THIS CITY FOR TWENTY THREE YEARS
Captain Jack Ahern, prominent throughout the state as a member of the Independent Order of Red Men, died at 5 o'clock last evening at his home, 704 Sylvanie Street, after a brief illness. Captain Ahern was taken ill last Thursday while at work at the National Biscuit company's factory and had to be taken home. He returned to work Saturday morning, but was again forced to quit at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and never rallied from his illness, due to stomach troubles and complications.

A resident of St. Joseph for the past twenty three years, during all of which time he was employed at the factory of the National Biscuit company, of recent years as a foreman of the candy department, Captain Ahern was very well, especially in secret society circles.

BORN IN IRELAND
Born in Ireland June 1, 1849 and came to the United States at the age of 6 months. He lived for some time in the east and when he came to St. Joseph went to work at once for what was then the Sommer-Richardson factory, since merged into the cracker trust. He came to St. Joseph twenty three years ago (1882) to enter the employ of F. I. Somers who was then engaged in running the biscuit factory now owned by the National Biscuit company.

He is survived by his widow, one son and one daughter. The daughter is Mrs. Joseph Theissen, a resident of St. Joseph, who was born of his first marriage. Harry A. Matthews is his stepson.

For nearly twenty years he had been a member of the Pocahontas Tribe No. 10 I.O.R.M. During the years from 1898 to 1900 inclusive, he as captain of the Wa-Ga-Sa-Nu-Da-Han-Ga degree team, famous throughout the United States for its degree work. This team made trips to different parts of the country to be present at big initiations. He was regarded as one of the finest degree workers in the country.

HOLDER OF HIGH OFFICE
From 1898 to 1900 Captain Ahern was great Sachem of Missouri, the highest office of the order in the state.

The widow and several children survive. The following honorary pallbearers have been chosen, all of whom are past grand sachems of Missouri: David Daniels, Jacob Wickenhoeffer, John D. Flint, William B. McNutt, John Dobler, and August Heschong.

The active pallbearers, selected from among the younger members of Pocahontas Tribe, will be J.V. Dewey, Charles Matthews, Peter Roesler, William Wolff, Q. Cole, and C.F. Keller.

The funeral will be from the wigwam of Pocahontas Tribe No. 10. I.O.R.M. Fifth and Edmond streets, at 2:30 o'clock Wednesday afternoon. The body will be taken to the wigwam at 11 o'clock tomorrow, where it will be in state until the hour for the burial service. The Rev. John T. Curtis, pastor of Oak Grove Presbyterian Church will officiate. The ceremony at the grave in Oakland Cemetery will be conducted by the Red Men. Floral offerings from friends and members of the fraternity of which he was a member have been numerous.

Fortune for Queenslanders.
Dr. Terry M. A'Heron, a well-known physician and surgeon of Junction, New Jersey, U.S.A., recently died, leaving a fortune of about £60,000, and his nearest relative is a sister, Mrs. Foster, of Warwick. Dr. A'Heron was one of a family of six, a brother being the late First-class Inspector John Ahern, of the Queensland Police Service. By Inspector Ahern the old Irish name became Anglicised, though the pronunciation is maintained by those who hail from County Cork. Dr. A'Heron was born at Barrymore (Cork), and was 63 years of age at the time of his death. He graduated at King's College, London and also at the Eye and Ear Department of St Mark's College, Dublin; and on going to America in 1866 he took a three years' post graduate course at the New York Eye and Ear Hospital and later graduated from the medical department of Yale. He had lived at Junction, New Jersey, for over thirty years, making occasional visits to Ireland.

A New Jersey paper says "he was a brilliant man, and the medical profession suffers a severe loss by his death." The same paper says "the doctor was one of a family of six children, the only survivor being a sister, who resides in Australia." In connection with the matter, Mr. Henry F. W. Foster, of Toowoomba and his sister, Miss Foster, who resides with her mother at Warwick, will sail for the United States on the 23rd instant by the Miowera. Mr. Foster is in the Lands Department at Toowoomba and is well known in musical circles there, being accompanist to the Liedertafel. [see also: William Ahern]

William "Willie" O'Hearn
The nine year old son of James O'Hearn of Loudonville, while on his way to the creamery with the mornings milk, was thrown from his buggy near the Walhonding depot and instantly killed, yesterday morning.

William "Willie" O'Hearn
A distressing and unfortunate accident happened at the Walhonding railroad crossing, on Main street, early Monday morning that cost William O'Hearn his life. He was coming to town in a single buggy and as he approached the Walhonding railroad a freight train came along going south. After the engine crossed the street the horse slowly approached the passing train. Suddenly the animal shied and turned down along the track in the same direction the train was going. After proceeding about thirty feet a switch light was encountered and the buggy became entangled in the brace rods. The train was between the only spectator, G.F. Raby, and the unfortunate lad, but it is thought that the lad was thrown against the side of the rear cars of the train. When the train had passed the boy was picked up and carried to the waiting room. He was living, but unconscious, the skull being crushed in just above the left ear. Later he was carried to the home of John Mutchler where he died in the afternoon. He was born in Jefferson township, Knox county, July 22nd, 1897, and was aged 9 years, 6 months and 26 days. Funeral services were held at the Catholic church, Wednesday morning at ten o'clock conducted by Father Ryan. Interment in the Catholic cemetery. The parents, three brothers and three sisters survive and they have the sympathy of the community in this sad misfortune and bereavement.

REV. FR. WALSH DEAD.
East Boston Priest Victim of Heart Trouble.
He Had Gone to Lowell, His Mother Having Died There.
LOWELL. Sept. 29—Rev. Fr. James A. Walsh, a curate of the church of the Sacred Heart in East Boston, died suddenly of heart trouble this morning. He was called to this city by the death of his mother, Mrs. Ellen T. O'Hearn, who was buried here Saturday, and who lived at 694 Westford st. He was greatly affected by her death. Before retiring last night he arranged to celebrate mass for the sisters and children in St. Peter's orphan asylum today, and set the alarm clock for 6. The alarm aroused him, and his attempts to call for assistance were heard by relatives, who hastened to his room. Fr. Timothy L. Callahan of St Patrick's church reached the house in season to administer the last rites of the church.
Fr. Walsh had been troubled at times with vertigo.
Fr. Walsh was born in Lowell 44 years ago. After graduating from the Lowell schools he attended St. Bonaventure college at Allegheny, Penn., and Brighton seminary. He was ordained in the seminary about 16 years ago by the late Archbishop Williams. He was stationed in Roxbury, Ayer, Lowell and East Boston. In his boyhood and before attending college Fr. Walsh was a member of all the literary societies of St. Patrick's parish, and was a great favorite with his companions. He was chosen chaplain of Lowell council, Knights of Columbus, and was a member of Lowell lodge of Elks. He was a frequent visitor at the home of his relatives here and also at the rectory of St Patrick's church.

The announcement of his death was made in all the Catholic churches here today, and was heard with regret by many who knew him since boyhood. He is survived by two half-brothers, Rev. Fr. John J. O'Hearn of Peabody and Dr. Daniel A. O'Hearn of this city, and a half-sister, Miss Helen J. O'Hearn, a school teacher here.

Richard Ahern Died Yesterday
Had Reached the Age of 94 Years at the Time of the Death
WAS OLD RESIDENT
He Passed Away Quietly and Rather Unexpectedly
The death of Richard Ahern, Sr., one of the city's oldest inhabitants and residents, occurred yesterday morning at 7:15 at the home of his son, John Ahern, ex-chief of police, at 1114 Kentucky street, at the extreme advanced age of 94 years, as the result of senility. Mr. Ahern, who had always been a rugged man, had only been failing in his health for several months and although he had been confined for only a short time, he retained a clear mind until the time of his death and his condition was not considered dangerous to any of his family until just a few minutes before his death yesterday morning, when he was found to be breathing his last while asleep.

Mr. Ahern was a native of Ireland, where he was born in the County Cork 94 years ago. He spent his early years in that country and came to America when 30 years of age and a short time afterwards he came to Quincy, which has been his home ever since, 63 years in all. Shortly after arriving in Quincy, he was married and his wife died only four months ago, October 15, 1907, at the advanced age of 87 years. To Mr. and Mrs. Ahern there were nine children born, all of whom they survived, with the exception of two sons, John A. Ahern, ex-chief of police, at whose home Mr. Ahern died, and Thomas Roy Ahern, of the American District Telegraph company, of 120 South Eighth street.

Mr. Ahern in his former years was a contractor until the last fifteen or twenty years, during which time he has lived in retirement. He was always in the best of health and had the reputation of never spending many days in sickness, and although he lived to the ripe old age of 94 years, he retained the remarkable power of eye sight and was never compelled to wear glasses. He was able to read the newspapers without artificial means within a week or so before his death. He was well known to the citizens of Quincy and had many friends who had known him for years who will miss him. He was for many years a member of the St. Peter's Roman Catholic church. The funeral notice will be published later. [see also: Maggie, Ahern]

Catherine (Sweeney) Ahern
MRS. DANIEL AHERN.
For Forty Years A Loved and Respected Resident of Sycamore Is At Rest.
   The death of Mrs. Daniel Ahern at their home on Grant street at about 5 o'clock on last Saturday afternoon brought deep grief to many hearts in this community where she had lived so many years loved and respected by all. She had been sick for nearly a year and for some weeks had been in a precarious condition. Her death was the result of an affection [sic] of the liver.
   Catherine Sweeney was born at Glenville, Ireland, 69 years ago. She was united in marriage on October 14, 49 years ago to Daniel Ahern. Soon after their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Ahern came to America, and after a short residence in New York City and Chicago, they became residents of Sycamore, and here they have ever since, a period of some 40 years, made their home.
   To Mr. and Mrs. Ahern were born the following children: Mrs. N. J. Ronin, of Freemont, Neb.; M. P. Ahern, of DeKalb, Ill.; Mrs. Harry Winders, deceased; Mrs. David Morphy, of Sycamore; John D. Ahern, of DeKalb, Ill.; James Ahern, deceased; Mrs. B. J. Snow, of Sycamore; Mrs. E. J,. Behling, of Milwaukee, Wis., and Frances Ahern, of Sycamore. The surviving children, together with the husband and father, mourn the death of a loving wife, and affectionate and devoted mother, to whom all owe much of the happiness which has come to them in life. She lived a just, consistent life which was not lived in vain.
   The funeral services were held on Tuesday morning at 9:30 o'clock at the home, and were private at her request. The Rev. father Mullally, of St. Mary's church, officiated. The remains were interred in Mt. Carmel cemetery.

After residing at Elk Point for a number of years he moved to Jackson, NE in 1883. He lived there until 1889 when he moved to Wayne County, Nebraska. During the lapse of these years he took Miss Ellen Reagan for a wife. To this union eight children were born, six boys and two girls, all of whom are living. Last Thursday saw the close of this life. The sixty years had seen many vicissitudes together with many of the pleasures of this world. His life was one of labor for his family and friends. He was a man that was ready at any time to help another whom he thought worthy. He was from childhood to his grave a strong member of the Catholic Church. His life was a success for he did well what his hands found to do. [see also: Cornelius Ahern]

A FAITHFUL EMPLOYE.
John A'Hearn, Who Died Yesterday,
Labored Long for the Town and City of Chelsea.
John A'hearn, one of the old-time residents of Chelsea, a man who had worked in the street department of Chelsea when it was a town and as a city, died yesterday at the home of his son, Cornelius E. A'hearn, Beach st., Revere. Mr. A'hearn was over 80 years old, and feeble health for several weeks was the cause of his death. Mr. A'hearn was a native of Ireland, but while in his teens he came to this country, and he went to work in this city as a laborer for a contractor of those times. He was in Boston but a short while when he went west, but soon again returned east, and came to Chelsea, and since then that city had been his home until driven out by the fire last April.

When he reached Chelsea it was a town, and over 60 years ago he secured work as a laborer on the streets. He continued as a member of the street department until Chelsea was made a city, and then he was reengaged in the street department and continued under all administrations and all heads of the street department till he retired from active work some seven years ago. He was regarded as one of the most faithful employes of the city of Chelsea. His labor was always faithfully performed, and every superintendent of streets in the city always referred to him in praiseworthy terms.

He made his home with his son on Broadway, Chelsea, near St. Rose Catholic church, the place being destroyed by the big fire, and since he had been with his son in Revere. He was an original member or St. Rose Catholic church of Chelsea, and always took an active interest in all matters that pertained to the welfare of the church. He is survived by several sons and daughters.

BURIAL OF SAMUEL HEARN
The funeral service of the late Samuel Hearn was attended at his late home on West Street Wednesday afternoon. Rev. William L. Burdick of the Seventh-day Baptist Church spoke from the words "I will not leave you comfortless" found in the gospel according to St. John, chapter 14, verse 18. The Misses Lillian and Sara Budlong and Harry C. Burdick sang two appropriate selections, and after prayer the body was taken by the three sons and a son-in-law of Mr. Hearn to the hearse. The casket was covered by the United States ensign, under which the man had served a number of years, and a handsome display of flowers testified to the regard of relatives, comrades and friends.

The burial was in the First Hopkinton cemetery, where his oldest son Isaac had been laid years ago. At the grave the comrades of John A. Logan post, G.A.R., conducted the burial service of a soldier. The attendance at both house and grave was large, showing the affection felt toward a quiet homekeeping man who had pursued the even tenor of his way among us, one who while suffering severely made but little complaint but bore his afflictions bravely and met death calmly.

After Having Retired in Apparent Good Health.
Mrs. Mary Ahern, 106 West Park street, Champaign, was found dead in bed at 6:30 o'clock this morning by her daughter, Miss Alice, who had gone to awaken her.

When the daughter received no response after rapping at her door this morning she entered the room and was almost prostrated by finding her mother dead. The body was cold, indicating that Mrs. Ahern had been dead for several hours.
Was Old Resident
Deceased was the wife of John Ahern, a Chicago saloonkeeper, who for many years was engaged in the saloon business in Champaign. Her husband had returned to Chicago on Tuesday morning, after having spent several days with his family. He was notified by telephone and will arrive this evening. Mrs. Ahern was born in Champaign county fifty-one years ago, her maiden name being Mary McDermott. She had resided in and near the Twin Cities all her life.

CAME WEST IN FIFTIES
MRS. G. C. GRIMES WAS ONE OF THE VERY EARLY SETTLERS
OLD RESIDENT PASSES AWAY
Family Was Among the First White People to Settle in Nebraska
    Mrs. Grimes, wife of G. C. Grimes, residing east of town at the gravel pits, succumbed on Sunday night to an illness of several weeks, shortly after two o'clock. She was taken sick early in December with bronchitis and grip, and her constitution was unable to withstand the long attack of illness, and she passed away at peace with the world to her reward.
   Mrs. Grimes was truly an old settler, having come here with her husband in 1869, since which time she resided in Plymouth county. Her maiden name was Katherine Theresa Ahern, and she was born in Hartford, Conn., on August 26, 1844. When she was a girl of twelve, in 1856, her family moved to Jackson, Neb. The country surrounding was a wilderness in those days and the Ahern family were among the first white settlers in that region.
   She was united in marriage on July 16, 1866, to G. C. Grimes at Dakota City, Neb., and they came to Plymouth county three years later. Three children blessed their union, Charles, Blanche and James. The last two died when very young. Besides her husband and son Mrs. Grimes leaves two brothers, James Ahern, of Choate, Ill., and John Ahern, of St. Louis, Mo. The funeral services will be held this morning at ten o'clock at St. Joseph's church in this city. Rev. F. X. Feurstein officiating. The pallbearers, old friends and neighbors of the family, will be Paul Nuebel, J. J. Heissell, Frank Puetz, P. Farrell, P. Hickey, Michael Foley.
   Mrs. Grimes was well known in the community, having made her home here for so many years. She was one of the pioneer women who assisted their husbands in developing the resources of the country, and bore privations and hardships unknown to many women of the younger generation. The isolation of those early days limited the circle of friendships, but the ties and associations were all the stronger and more lasting. The old order gives place to the new, but the highest meed [sic] of veneration is due the pioneer. [see also: Frances E. (McDonald) Ahern]

VICTIM OF HEAT TAKES HIS LIFE
Ahearn Cuts Throat and Dies at Once.
One of three victims of the heat in Boston last evening committed suicide by cutting his throat with a razor. This case happened at 8:10 p.m. Patrick F. Ahearn, 29 years old, who lived with his parents at 224 Commercial st., North End. Ahern, who was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Ahearn, was suffering from a partial prostration from the heat. His death was almost instantaneous. He had not been well for more than a week, but yesterday he appeared to be somewhat improved, physically and mentally. When his father, who is a laborer, returned from work last evening the young man came into the kitchen from the street and talked with him a moment, remarking that he had suffered greatly from the excessive heat.

Shortly after 8 o'clock the young man left his chair, went to a shelf and taking a razor from it, went into the bath room and closed the door. In another minute Mr. and Mrs. Ahearn were shocked to hear their son shrieking frightfully. The next instant the bathroom door leading into the kitchen was opened and the son stepped into the kitchen. The young man had the razor in his right hand and was bleeding from a large wound. The parents started to help him just as he fell dying.

Dr. G. M. Balboni was called and he found the young man dead. Fr. Killilea of St. Mary's church comforted the frief stricken parents and he and a policeman remained with them during the early evening, until the arrival of Medical Examiner Magrath.

Dr. John J. Ahern
The "Catholic Advocate," Brisbane, of Saturday, March 9th, contains interesting obituary notices of Dr. John Ahern, whose demise recently at Gympie, Australia, occasioned very deep and general regret in this, his native, county. It reproduces a copy of the illuminated address presented to him by the priests and people of Carrignavar on the occasion of his departure for Australia with his wife, nee Miss K. Barry, of Gympie, Australia. In speaking of this address the Gympie correspondent of the "Advocate" says :—Before leaving Ireland the doctor was presented by the people of Carrignavar and Glenville with a strikingly handsome and beautifully illuminated address, which, mounted in a rich, massive frame, occupied a prominent place in his surgery at Gympie. He was known to be very proud of this token of esteem, which includes photos of the doctor and Mrs. Ahern, Blarney Castle, and Blackrock Castle, and signed by James Canon Hegarty, P.P., John O'Leary, P.P., and several other representatives of the people there at the time.
Dr. Ahern was an out and out lover of his native land, and was always a prominent figure whenever there was a question of advancing the cause he loved. When the Irish delegates, some few months ago, Messrs. Redmond and Donovan, were in Gympie, it was in his home that they experienced that joyous hospitality that he was delighted to extend to them. How dear he was to people of his adopted town may be gathered from the vast concourse of all creeds and classes that followed his funeral. The Church, too, by every visible expression of sorrow, paid all respects to the mortal body once so full of life and energy.
Dr. Ahern was a man of splendid physique and of a kindly disposition, that won the esteem and affection of those who knew him. His nature was generous and his manner straightforward, his mind aimed at lofty ideals. He loved sport for the sake of sport, and saw that recreation must share in the life of a hard-worked professional man. With great promise before him of a brilliant career, it will be said that it was hard to leave this world at the early age of 42, but he never complained and the strong constitution seemed during his last illness to assert itself and grapple even with the inexorable angel of death.
The "Gympie Times" says—Since 1903 he practiced his profession in Gympie and by his skill quickly earned a high reputation as being a man of wide knowledge and great ability. His sterling qualities of heart and mind likewise made him a good citizen, and in healthy, manly sport his patronage, advice and assistance were ever available. From these facts it will be patent that his loss to the general community will be greatly felt, but by none will his loss be so greatly felt as the Catholic and Irish people and Irish descendants, by whom he was held in particular respect. In matters of faith and fatherland he was staunch, sincere and practical. When the Irish envoys were recently here, they remarked that in their tour of Australia they had found no more hospitable, large-hearted, sincere advocate of Irish Nationalism than the doctor. Quiet spoken but genial, kind in heart and charitable in deed, the doctor's familiar commanding figure will be sadly missed from the community, and his untimely demise will cause sorrow in many homes where his professional skill and personal kindness had given hope and health to the afflicted and relief to the distressed. To the grief-stricken wife and two children, who mourn the loss of an affectionate husband and father, the sympathy of the community is extended.
THE CLERGY'S TRIBUTE
At the 8 o'clock Mass the Rev. Father Horan, P.P., made announcements regarding the obsequies, and in asking the prayers of the congregation for the soul of Dr. Ahern, referred to his memory. Dr. Ahern, continued the Rev. Father, was very good natured, and good hearted, a practical Catholic, a man of great faith, who openly professsed his religion, and an Irishman who took a pride in his nationality, and he well deserved the honour which is being shown. At the 11 o'clock Mass the Rev Father P. Murphy also made very kindly reference to the deceased doctor.
THE FUNERAL
The church bell was tolled at 3 o'clock, when already there was a large number of people there. The Rev. Father Horan briefly addressed the people; the Rosary was recited, and after the blessing and incensing of the remains, the coffin was carried through the church, the sad strains of the Dead March in Saul being played on the organ. Lined then on either side of the walk from the main entrance were the members of the Hibernian Australasian Catholic benefit society to the number of 120 in reglia, who subsequently took their places in the lead of the funeral procession of the deceased, who was a member of the society. Following these came the priest in a buggy immediately preceding the hearse, following which was an immense procession of footmen, then vehicles of every description, and horsemen bringing up the rear. The chief mourners were the late doctor's wife, son, and daughter, and his only other relative in Australia, a first cousin, Mr. J. J. Ahern
It was an immense concourse of people, fully representative of all sections of the community, which althogether showed unmistakeable evidence of the respect and esteem in which the deceased was held, and which was all the more marked by the fact that heavy rain fell all day, and continued throughout the course of the funeral procession to the Two-Mile Cemetery, and throughout the burial service, at which the Rev. Father Murphy officiated. The floral tributes were very numerous.
THE ENVOY'S VISIT TO GLYMPIE — DR. AHERN'S HOSPITALITY
On Sunday, September 24th, last year, two of the Irish envoys, Messrs Redmond and Donovan, visited Glympie to unveil the monument to the late John Flood, of Chester Castle fame. The envoys, unfortunately, missed the early morning train to Gympie on the Saturday, and taking the afternoon train they did not arrive in Gympie till midnight. Although it was so late in the year, it was a fairly bleak night, but there were at that hour patriotic Irishmen present at the station in hundreds to give Ireland's representatives a cead mile failthe. One stalwart, massive, athletic form stood out prominently in the crowd as the envoys alighted and received from the big-bodied and big hearted man a grip that told them that it was no sham patriotism which caused the proud gleam in his kindly eye as he towered over the visitors. That man was the genial Dr. Ahern, and to-day it is hard to believe that he is no more.
The visitors were driven in motors to the city, where a welcome repast was prepared by a worthy hostess. The chair at that function was taken by Mr. O'Connor, who has received the highest honour which the Hibernians of Southern Queensland can confer on a confrere—that is the district presidency. Dr. Ahern was one of the group, and there was no happier man present than that genial Corkman. His words of welcome came from him quietly and simply, and it was evident that he was thrilled with patriotic feeling at having the privilege of assisting at the welcome to his country's young ambassadors.
Before the little gathering dispersed Dr. Ahern invited the visitors to dine with him on the following evening at his happy home "Glengariff." The kindly manner of invitation was irresistable, and when the envoys attended at his house they were overwhelmed with hospitality. The "Glengariff" which nestles at the foot of the Sugarloaf in the west of County Cork never saw greater warmth of hospitality than that bestowed on Ireland's envoys by Dr. Ahern and his good wife in "Glengariff" on Gympie Goldfield. The place was decorated in honour of the visitors. The menu cards were souvenirs which shall long be treasured by those who were fortunate enough to receive an invitation. They were hand-painted with exquisite taste. The frontpiece of one in the possession of the writer is marked by the Australian coat-of-arms with a border of shamrocks and bears the motto "Australia helps the Old Land in her noble fight for freedom." That was a memorable night in the happy home of a patriotic exile, and now that death has thrown its shadow there none will feel more poignant grief than the Irish envoys.
In writing an appreciation of the late Cardinal Moran for the "Catholic Advocate," Dr. Ahern said, "The grand old oak has withered at last." To-day a stalwart young oak has been snapped off unexpectedly. We can ill afford to lose men of his stamp. Australian soil has enfolded the remains of many a fine man from Cork. Close by John Flood and Dr. John J. Ahern are sleeping their last long sleep. May their souls rest in peace.

John Aherne
Aherne Appeal Fund
At a largely-attended meeting of the friends of the late John and David Aherne, held at the Victoria Hotel Tuesday night, the High Sheriff (Mr. Joseph Hosford) presided, there being also present — Alderman James Simcox, Messrs John English, Wm. Kelleher, T. C.; M. J. Mahoney, managing director John Daly and Co, Ltd.; Edward McSwiney (Furlong and Sons), James Myles, P. F. Higgins, South Mall; Jerome J. Twomey (M. D. Daly and Sons), M. J. Haly , secretary McCarthy and Sons, Ltd.; Patrick Crowley, James Mulcahy, Albert J. Twomey, Shandon street; Thomas Lyons, John Hoare, J. F. O'Leary, Patrick Brady, Denis Dennehy, Daniel O'Connell, John McCarthy, J. C. Foley, D. Joyce, rate collector; Albert Wood (A. Beckman and Co, London).
In the unavoidable absence of the Lord Mayor, who sent a handsome donation to the fund, the High Sheriff was moved to the chair, and was received with applause. He said that he was glad to see such a large and representative meeting to inaugurate such a worthy and deserving fund. As they were all aware the late Mr. John Aherne passed away last September after a very long illness, and during the past few days his son, David, had also he regretted to say, died. The protracted illness of both had necessarily put their family to huge expense, and that night they were assembled to help them in their efforts to maintain their home. It needed no words of his to point out to the charitably disposed citizens of Cork the urgent necessity for this appeal, and he therefore with great confidence recommended it to their generous support. In order to open the list he had much pleasure in handing in his donation to the treasurer (applause).
Mr. John McCarty said he felt it his duty to support the appeal on behalf of the Aherne family. He did so on two grounds. The first was that he knew the late John Aherne for a long number of years to be a man of most exemplary character, and a very worthy citizen, and secondly from a charitable point of view, because he considered no charity greater than to help the poor widow and family in their hour of need. Like his friend the High Sheriff, who is ever ready to help any good cause, he thought the most practical way of making the appeal a success was by handing in his subscription (hear, hear).
Mr. Albert Twomey, Shandon street, desired to be associated with the views of the High Sheriff and Mr. McCarthy concerning the late John Aherne. He could speak of an intimate acquaintance with him, as he acted as his manager for a number of years, and he should say a more capable and trustworthy man he never met. He was a man that was ever ready to relieve distress himself as far as his means allowed him, and now that he had gone from amongst them they should see that the burden of his loss fell as lightly as possible on his bereaved family.
Mr. M. J. Mahoney, managing director Messrs John Daly and Co., Ltd., spoke as to the loss he personally felt at the death of Mr David Aherne, who had been in the firm some eleven years, since he left school. He was an excellent, promising young fellow, and his death, coming so soon after the father's made the affliction of the Aherne family more than the ordinary. His firm realized this, and he had great pleasure in handing to the treasurer a check for £20, being the contribution from the firm, directors and staff (loud applause).
Mr. John English desired to endorse all that had been said by the High Sheriff and other gentlemen. He also could claim an old acquaintanceship with the late Mr John Aherne, and he heartily joined in the worthy appeal now being made on behalf of his family.
Mr. Daniel O'Connell said he had considerable experience of Mr Aherne's worth in connection with the North Parish Sick Poor Society. He worked hard for many years Sunday after Sunday, without fee or reward, collecting funds for that institution, and the good work he had unobtrusively done should not now be forgotten. He was very sorry that the necessity had arisen for the appeal, but as it existed he promised the movement substantial support not only on behalf of himself, but also on behalf of Mr Aherne's former colleagues of the North Parish Sick Poor Society (hear, hear).
All those present then handed in their donations, and a large amount was realised. A hearty vote of thanks was passed to the High Sheriff for presiding on the motion of Mr Thomas Lyons, seconded by Mr Patrick Crowley, and this concluded the proceedings.

The Late Monsignor Ahern.
(By M. KEARNEY.)
The late Joseph Loughlin Ahern was born (I believe) at Mallow, County Cork, Ireland in the year 1848, as he himself often quoted, "The year forty-eight, when famine was great," for it was the year known in Irish history as the year of the great potato famine. At the seminary of Mount Melleray he first met the late Doctor Doyle, then a lad of ten or twelve, and their friendship there begun, was carried on through their student days at Maynooth, where they were ordained priests, and lasted till the death of Bishop Doyle some three years ago.

Young Father Ahern, always a brilliant scholar, particularly fond of the classics, and a foremost theologian, pursued his priestly career for some years in the United States. In 1884 he landed in Australia, and paid a visit to Armidale to another old college mate, the present Bishop O'Connor, of Armidale. In August, 1885, there was held in Sydney the first Plenary Council of the Church in Australia, and one of the most honoured theologians who took part therein was the late venerated parish priest of Casino. Beside here renewing his boyhood's friendship with Doctors Doyle and O'Connor (then Deans), he also met Dr. Delany, one of his old professors, who is now happily Archbishop of Hobart.

About the end of that year, Father Ahern came to Lismore, and for some time was associated with Dean Doyle (as he then was) as assistant priest. One of his most cherished possessions then was a very fine Guarnarius (violin), and his greatest delight, when occasion allowed, was to play obligatis at the Benediction services. When, in 1887, Doctor Doyle received his Apostolic Brief, and the new Diocese was founded, Father Ahern took charge of the Lower Richmond, with Headquarters at Ballina. He was afterwards transferred to Murwillumbah, but here his health became very unsatisfactory, and he took a trip to his native Ireland. His health became worse instead of better, and for some time it seemed that he would leave his bones in the Old Land. We next find him at Auckland, New Zealand, where he remained a year or so—took another peep at the Rockies—and back to Australia and the North Coast, which was to be his home till the end almost. He took up duty at Grafton, being transferred from there to Casino not long after and in succession to the late Dean Walsh. On the death of that Apostle of the North Coast, the Venerable Abbe Schurr, he became Vicar-General of the Diocese, which position he held up to a few months ago, when failing health caused him to relinquish its multifarious duties.

Some six or seven years ago he was raised to the dignity of Monsignor, which means a prelate of the Pope's household. At the banquet held in connection with the dedication ceremonies of St. Carthage's Cathedral in August, 1907, Monsignor Ahern, Vicar-General of the Diocese, responded to the toast of the clergy. The late Cardinal Moran was the guest of honour. His Eminence a few days later took the first motor drive of his life. And amongst those who accompanied him, their objective being Coraki, was the late Monsignor. Of his work in the Casino parish, the Presbytery alone will stand as a monument for all time, for it is considered to be one of the finest in the Commonwealth. Few men had realised better than he that the most important thing in life is to learn how to live. Some men have a purpose in life, and some have none. His aim was to secure the highest and most harmonious development of his powers to a complete and consistent whole. His high scholastic attainments placed him head and shoulders above his fellows ; he was simply steeped in classic lore ; while his theological attainments rightly placed him among the hierarchy of his Church, and his great heart, and noble, genial nature endeared him to all classes and creeds, to the young as well as to the old. Clergy and laity alike unite in declaring that we shall not look upon his like again. Culture and sweetness and light shone all around him. In the words of Shakespeare : "His life was gentle, and the elements so mixed in him that Nature might stand up and say to all the world, 'This was a man !'"

His many friends and faithful, loving parishioners would wish that his bones were laid amongst them, but by his own wish he sleeps his long sleep at Rookwood, in the company of many more priests and of thousands of his fellow Catholics. The Solemn Requiem Mass this (Tuesday) morning, at Casino, at which his Lordship Dr. Carroll will preside, will doubtless be attended very largely by his bereft congregation and others anxious to do honour to his memory. It is worthy of note that the Diocese of Lismore has lost three of its priests by the hand of death during the past year, viz., the Venerable Archdeacon Dalton, of Murwillumbah, Dean Walshe, of Bangalow, and lastly, Casino's Very Rev. Monsignor Ahern. Peace to their ashes!

CON A. AHERN, PIONEER, DEAD
Prominent Virginia City Man Passes Away Following Long Illness
VIRGINIA CITY, March 21.—Con A. Ahern, a Virginia City pioneer, known throughout the state, died at 6:30 o'clock this morning, following a long period of ill health, which recently became a critical illness. Funeral arrangements have not yet been announced.

Con Ahern was a Republican presidential elector in 1904, sergeant at arms of the Nevada assembly for two terms and twice a candidate for surveyor general. He was a staunch Republican at all times and prominent in party councils. He was organizer and past state president of the Eagles. His residence in Nevada covered a period of 50 years and most of that time was spent on the Comstock. He was the owner of the Crystal bar at Virginia City at the time of his death. In the early days he was interested in mining and was a power in political affairs of his city and state. He was a native of Boston and was 64 years old. [see also: Minnie (Armour) Ahern, Mary E.

CON A. AHERN CROSSES DIVIDE
Pioneer of the Comstock Passes to Reward After Illness of Many Months
KNOWN ALL OVER NEVADA
Came to Virginia City During Year 1863; Prominent in State Politics
   Con A. Ahern, whoh [sic] has been identified with the history of the Comstock since 1863, died yesterday morning at his home in Virginia City after an illness of several months. Death was expected for Ahern had been critically ill for the past few days and gradually growing weaker. About ten days ago he returned from the coast and was immediately confined to his home on arrival.
   Ahern was a native of Boston, and was 64 years old. In 1857 he located at Grass Valley, Cal., where he followed mining and in 1863 he packed his blankets into Virginia City. For fifty years he followed the ups and downs of the Comstock. At first he was employed driving a whim [a horse-driven device similar to a windlass used in mining for hauling materials to the surface], and was also engaged in the construction of the Gould and Curry mill at Six-mile canyon. Later he entered the paid fire department at Virginia City and in 1889 secured an interest in a business.
   As a presidential elector for Nevada Ahern carried the electoral vote to Washington when Roosevelt was elected. He was a prominent figure in republican politics, having attended every convention within the state for forty years. Twice he was a candidate for the officer [sic] of surveyor general, and during two legislative sessions was sergeant-at-arms of the state assembly. During the administration of John Sparks he was appointed a member of the governor's staff and was likewise reappointed by subsequent administrations. He was a member of Governor Oddie's staff.
   The funeral, which will be held tomorrow at Virginia City, will be under the auspices of the Fraternal Order of Eagles. Ahern was past state president of the Comstock aerie of Eagles and was prominently identified with the upbuilding of that order in this state. He is survived by his wife, who is seriously ill in San Francisco, one son, James Ahern, a brother and a sister, Morris Ahern and Mrs. Kate Hayes, of San Francisco.

Edward J. Ahern
   Edward J. Ahern, one of the best known residents of the South End, passed away suddenly yesterday afternoon at his home at 113 Main street, age 36 years. Death was due to heart trouble, from which illness the deceased has been ailing for the past three years.
   The news of the young man's death came as a distinct shock to his many friends, who little realized the seriousness of his illness. Two weeks ago he was about, apparently in good health and took to his bed only last week.
   The deceased was born in this city, son of David and Mary Ahern and when a young man early distinguished himself as an athlete. He became a very clever ball player and for many years held down the position as backstop for the South Ends and the old South Borders. He was a formidable batter and came to be feared by all local pitchers.

   At the time of his death he conducted two grocery stores, one at the corner of Main and Conn streets and one on Main street in the old Reynolds' estate which he recently purchased.
   He married Miss Annie Quirk of this city by whom he is survived with four children, May, age 10; John, age 7; David, age 5, and Anastacia, age 1.

William J. O'Hearn
William J. O'Hearn, for fourteen years a member of the City Council, president of the Kentucky Colonels since its organization and superintendent of the J. B. Wathen Distillery for the last fifteen years, died at 4:55 o'clock yesterday afternoon at his home, 2435 West Broadway, of stomach trouble after an illness lasting eleven months. He was operated upon last April. Mr. O'Hearn fought his illness heroically and was at his office until last Monday. He was compelled to go to bed then and sank rapidly. He was conscious to the end and recognized his sisters and other relatives who were at the bedside an hour before his death. He was 55 years old and unmarried.

Representing the Twelfth Ward, Mr. O'Hearn was elected Alderman for fourteen years, but retired about eight years ago. He had opportunity to be elected president of the Board of Aldermen, but did not seek the office when he learned that Charles F. Grainger would be a candidate. Mr. Grainger was elected at that time. Mr. O'Hearn was a ready maker of friends and was a Democratic leader of his section of the city. He was made president of the Kentucky Colonels, a Democratic organization, when it was first organized, and had been re-elected every year since. He had never sought any other office except that of Alderman. He was a member of the orders of Elks and Red Men.

The funeral probably will be held tomorrow, but definite arrangements will not be made until the arrival of his nephew, George McCran, from Pennsylvania. Mr. McCran is a traveling man and a telegram notifying him of his uncle's death was sent yesterday to Redding. The Rev. Charles P. Raffo, pastor of St. Charles Borromeo Church, of which Mr. O'Hearn was a member, will conduct the services. Mr. O'Hearn was born in Louisville and was the son of Dennis and Mary O'Hearn. He received his education in the public schools and early in life started out for himself. He was identified with the Anderson-Nelson Distillery twenty-seven years before going to the Wathen Distillery. Surviving Mr. O'Hearn are two sisters, Mrs. J. McCran and Miss Mollie O'Hearn, a nephew, George McCran and a great-niece Miss Alice Sherrill McCran.

John Ahern
Venerable Railroad Man of Grafton Dies
John Ahern died Tuesday morning at his home after a very brief illness since Friday evening. He was one of Grafton's oldest citizens and was held in the highest esteem by all who knew him. A native of Ireland, he came to this country at the early age of ten and settled in Chillicothe, Ohio, where he commenced work as a boiler maker and continued in that occupation continuously for over fifty years, most of which time he worked and lived in Grafton.

In the year 1860, he and Mrs. Ahern, whose maiden name was Nagle, were married. They resided happily together and had two sons, one of whom died a few years ago. The surviving son, John H. Ahern, resides in New London, Canada. One sister also survives, being Mary Regan, of Lowell, Mass. All his other eight brothers and sisters have died. An adopted daughter, Mrs. William F. Faust, also survives, and has made her home with and cared for the comforts of her aged foster parents almost continuously for many years past.

The funeral took place this morning at the Catholic church where a large number of people gathered as a last mark of respect to the deceased and where the pastor, Father McElligott, said the solemn Mass and offices for the dead and paid a fitting tribute to the truly Christian life of the deceased. After the services, the remains were buried in Mt. Cavalry cemetery with undertaker McCabe in charge.

   Mrs. Catherine Ahern, who died last night at her home, 27 Vining court, this city, had 42 living grandchildren and 34 great-grandchildren. She is also survived by 5 sons and two daughters.
   Mrs. Ahern was the widow of John Ahern, well known in the South End, who died about 11 years ago. She was born in Ireland and had resided in America more than 40 years, the greater part of the time in Woburn. The illness which caused her death was of short duration, scarcely more than a few days, and was not thought at first to be serious. Advanced age, however, precluded the possibility of recovery, and she passed away last night.
   It is believed that the long list of grandchildren and great-grandchildren is a record for this vicinity. Besides these children she left five sons: Edward, David, Michael and Dennis of Woburn and John of New York. The two surviving daughters are: Mrs. John McCarthy and Mrs. Catherine Shea of Woburn.

—Brother of Building Commissioner.
Sergt. John T. O'Hearn of the Fields Corner Police Station died yesterday morning at the Boston City Hospital following an operation. He was one of the popular members of the Police Department. He was a brother of Building Comissioner Patrick O'Hearn. Sergt. O'Hearn was operated on for what was thought to be cancer, and up to two days ago was said to be improving. So confident was he himself of returning to duty he remarked to Capt. Charles T. Reardon that he would be out in two weeks. His death has caused deep, genuine regret in Dorchester, where his family is very well known and highly esteemed.

Sergt. O'Hearn was born in Canning, N. S. Nov. 18, 1863. He was appointed a reserve man in the Police Department May 1, 1895, and assigned to Division 11. He was made a patrolman Nov. 8, 1895.

Rodney Ahearn
The death of Drummer Rodney Ahearn of the Royal Dublin Fusiliers, from wounds received at the Dardanelles, has been heard with much regret in Newbridge and Naas districts. Drummer Ahearn was a native of Naas, where his Father, Private Richard Ahearn, was an officers' servant in the Royal Dublin Fusiliers' barracks for many years. He had just arrived at the age of 20 years, and having been wounded in action, he was removed to Port Said hospital on the 24th June, but, recovering quickly, he rejoined his regiment, and getting back to the firing line he was killed in action at the Dardanelles. Mrs. Ahearn, mother, has received information from the war office of the sad death of the gallant lad, the cause of death being stated as "died of wounds". Mr. Richard Ahearn, father of the deceased was a popular member of the Royal Dublin Fusiliers, who fought right through the Boer War, and who for some years past was the staff of the Newbridge Post Office. When the present war started Mr. Ahearn immediately volunteered for active service, and was soon at the front with his old corps, the lst Dublins. He was very anxious to meet his son, who was in the fighting line, and although both were in Alexandria for some hours at the same time, in their different companies, they did not meet, neither did they while in fighting line afterwards. In a letter to his mother from the convalescent hospital, Port Said, on the 25th June, Drummer Ahearn said he had been wounded in the foot on the 18th June, but was going on splendidly,
So I think I have escaped very lucky, as I think I am one of the last of the old 1st battalion to leave the trenches. It is terrible the cutting up that battalion has got - in fact, the whole division. Each time there has been anything on the mat we have been there, so I think it is very near time that they gave us a rest, but there is no such thing. There is no rest or playing football, as there is on the other side. It is a break to get away for a few days after being two months 'on the go' day and night. I have been expecting one every day as I should like to know if my father is on his way out, as I have not heard of him. I suppose "Titch" is getting on tiptop. Is he gone to Belfast yet? I wrote him a postcard to the Curragh , but I suppose it will be forwarded to him, — Your Loving Son, Rodney.
In a War Office communication, dated 20th July, Mrs. Ahearn, mother, who resides at Newbridge, received a document from the Infantry Record Office, Island Bridge, to the effect that Drummer Rodney Ahearn, Royal Dublin Fusiliers, was wounded in action and admitted to the Government Hospital at Port Said. A further communications was received a notification of the death of Drummer Ahearn from the war office, expressing regret, the cause of death being stated as "died from wounds". It afterwards transpired that the information was only too correct. Drummer Rodney Ahearn was a great favourite with all who knew him, and much sympathy goes out to his mother at Newbridge, as well as to his father, who is at fighting in the trenches, both of whom are very well known in Naas.

MOTHER OF O'HEARNS DIES.
Building Commissioner, Other Sons and Daughter From Boston
at Bedside in Nova Scotia.
Word was received yesterday in Dorchester of the death at Canning, N. S., of the 86-year-old mother of Building Commissioner Patrick O'Hearn. Mrs. O'Hearn had enjoyed excellent health until a little more than a month ago, when she was shocked by receiving news of the sudden death of her son, Sergt. John O'Hearn of the Adams-st., Dorchester Police Station. She was deeply interested in and followed closely all the movements of her children in the vicinity of Boston and seemed to lose ground steadily after that bad news.

At her bedside when death came were the Building Commissioner and Mrs. O'Hearn, Mr. and Mrs. D. W. Mahoney, the latter a daughter, of Hyde Park; James O'Hearn of Dorchester, patrolman Richard O'Hearn of the West Dedham-st Station and Mrs. Ellen O'Hearn of Dorchester, the widow of Sergt. John O'Hearn.

FRIENDS FROM SOUTH COME TO THIS CITY
News of Death of Mrs. Ahern Is Received With Deep Regret by Virginia Cityites
Last evening the remains of Mrs. Mary E. Ahern, who died in this city Tuesday, were accompanied to San Francisco where interment will be made. The body was accompanied by a sister of the deceased, Miss Alice Hopkins of San Francisco. Mrs. Ahern was the widow of the late Cornelius Ahern, a well known mining man of Virginia City. She was aged 39 years and was a native of Kentucky. She had been an invalid for the past three or four months. As a token of the respect in which the memory of the late Con Ahern of Virginia City was held by the residents of that place, two auto parties came up from the Comstock yesterday as soon as they learned of the death of Mrs. Ahern. One party was composed of Chief of Police Ed. Klaus of Virginia City, Roy Barry, commissioner of Storey county, and Attorney Paul Coryell. Another party consisted of William and Thomas Marks, the latter administrator of the estate of the late Virginia business man. In addition to this number was "Colonel" William Brady, the colored janitor and steward of the Douglas buildings, who was a friend of Mr. Ahern in his lifetime.

Patrick O'Hern
Patrick O'Hern, one of Cuba's oldest and most reputable resident died of pneumonia at this residence, 3 Bishop street, last Wednesday morning.

A sturdy but humble descendant of a famous Irish clan, the O'Hern's or O'Houghernes of Killarney, he with four cousins, Patrick, John, Morris and Jeremiah, came to this country more than sixty years ago, settling in this neighborhood and laboring steadfastly and contentedly, managing by thrift and earnest efforts to give an education to their children, which has enabled them to take responsible positions in various professions. The deceased Cuban first went to work as a lad, on the Loveridge farm on Champlin Hill and until recent years was a respected laboring man, who had the satisfaction of seeing his only living son, Joseph O'Hern develop into an able educator, being now Assistant Superintendent of Public Schools in Rochester. From the four cousins, who settled in Fay Hollow, between Hinsdale and Olean, have sprung others who have attained professional success. They include Dr. Lewis O'Hern, professor in the Catholic University at Washington, Rev. J. F. O'Hern, rector of the Rochester Cathedral, Major Edward P. O'Hern of the U.S. Army, Dr. Walter O'Hern of Tulsa, Oklahoma, Rev. W. E. O'Hern of Eldred and Rev. Thomas E. O'Hern who is rapidly making his mark in Buffalo. The main aim and earnest endeavor of the earlier O'Herns who raised large families appears to have been to impress the educational idea on their offsprings, who have well profited thereby. Besides the son already mentioned Mr. O'Hern's widow and a daughter, Mrs. P. S. McNamara, survive him. The latter has resided with and done much caring for her father and his wife.

The funeral services will be conducted in Our Lady of Angels church with Rev. D. J. White as Master of Ceremonies, Rev. J. F. O'Hern, celebrant and preaching by the Dr. Lewis O'Hern, at 10 o'clock on Saturday and the interment in the Cuba cemetery will follow. [see also: Rev. Philip E. O'Hern]

Butler, residing on Clarke street, received word this week of the death of her uncle, James Ahern, which occurred at his home in Massac county, Illinois, on January 5, 1917, at the age of 77 years, four months and five days. Mr. Ahern was born at Hartford, Conn., on August 30, 1839. He is survived by his wife. Mr. Ahern served as a soldier in the Civil War and shortly after the close of the strife came west and was a freighter and teamster in the early days, making trips to California and the Black Hills. He was a resident of LeMars for many years and was employed at the Illinois Central freight depot here for more than twenty years and on his retirement from service was pensioned by the company. Since leaving LeMars he and his wife made their home in Illinois for the past ten years. Mr. Ahern had a host of acquaintances in LeMars and was well liked by everybody who knew him.

DANIEL AHERN TAKEN
Daniel Ahern, For Nearly Half A Century A Resident of Sycamore,
And Father Of Nine Children,
Dies On Last Friday Afternoon.
   The death of that good citizen of Sycamore for nearly half a century, Daniel Ahern, brought sorrow not only to his many relatives but to his wide circle of friends and acquaintances. Mr. Ahern died at his home on Somonauk street on Friday afternoon, Aug. 3, after several years of failing health, although he had not been helpless and had been confined to his bed only a few days.
   He was born on April 1, 1836, at Kil McKlemmin [Kilmaclenine?], Ireland, where he grew to manhood. His father was of English blood, and was a tailor as was the son. The son came to Chicago 51 years ago and to Sycamore 49 years ago. He was united in marriage in 1858 to Katherine Sweeney, a native of Glenville, Ireland. She died on March 21, 1908. Mr. Ahern's parents were also for some time residents of Sycamore. The father died here and was buried here. The mother died in Chicago.
   To Mr. and Mrs. Ahern were born nine [sic] children as follows: Mrs. N. J. Romain [Ronin] of Fremont, Neb.; Mrs. Margaret Winders (deceased); N. P. Ahern (deceased); Mrs. D. M. [Anna T.] Morphy of DeKalb, Ill., J. D. Ahern of DeKalb, Ill.; Mrs. Bryan Snow of Sycamore, James Ahern (deceased), Marie Ahern and Miss Fannie Ahern, both of Sycamore. All the surviving children were with their father and comforted him to the last. Mr. Ahern also leaves eight grandchildren and several great grandchildren.
   Daniel Ahern was employed for many years by L. Connart as a tailor, and for several years later he was in business for himself. He was an expert workman. He was of a friendly disposition—sociable, honorable and a real old-fashioned gentleman. He took a lively interest in public affairs and had sound ideas on almost all current topics. Everybody liked him.
   There was a large attendance of sorrowing relatives and friends at the funeral services which were held in St. Mary's church on Monday morning at 10 o'clock. Rev. Fr. O'Hara officiated. The remains were interred in the family lot in Mt. Carmel cemetery. [see also: Michael P. Ahern]

DIED OF WOUNDS
Sergt. George Calvert Ahern, 328 Nineteenth street.
News reached Oakland today of the death of Sergeant George Calvert Ahern, for a number of years well known in theatrical circles throughout the country. Ahern was mortally wounded the first day of the opening battle of the Hindenburg line, September 26. He was sergeant of Company L, 354th Infantry, of the First American Army, under General Liggett, and it was his first battle. He had been in France but two months. Ahern enlisted in September, 1917, in Santa Barbara, where he had been playing leading roles with the Mary Miles Mintner Company for two years. He had been in the theatrical business for ten years and played character and juvenile parts with George M. Cohan, Chauncey Olcott, and other well-known stars. He played second lead in "Officer 666," and in a number of other well-known plays during the past decade. He was seen in Oakland a number of times at the Macdonough Theater.

Sergeant Ahern was born in Newark, 32 years ago, but was reared and educated in Oakland. He was the son of Daniel J. Ahern, customs inspector at the Ferry building, San Francisco, and residing at Harrison and Nineteenth street, Oakland. He is also survived by two brothers and two sisters, namely: Charles J. Ahern, who is in France with a machine gun company in the 47th Infantry; Roy G. Ahern, who is in the navy, now at Mare Island, but who expects to be sent to foreign waters at once; Mrs. William H. Craig, 373 Santa Clara avenue, Piedmont, and Mrs. Norman P. Wilkie, who resides with her father at Harrison and Nineteenth street, Mr. Wilkie being in the heavy artillery, in training at Fort Scott, near the Presidio.

Ahern , who stated that he had seen his brother George while on his way to the front September 23, three days before the latter was killed. . . .

Magda (Boyle) Ahern
Ahern—Mrs. Magda Ahern, 83 years old, died Monday morning at her home, 711 Twenty-sixth street, after several weeks ilness, resulting from a fall when she received an injury to her hip. She possessed remarkable physical energy until a few years ago; she also had a most remarkable mentality and up to the last retained her faculties. Mrs. Ahern was born in Armagh, County Donegal [sic], Ireland, in December, in December 1835, the daughter of Patrick and Sarah Boyle; she came to America when 21 years old, and for the pat 48 years has lived in this city. Mrs. Ahern formerly lived on the South Side and was identified with St. Ambrose parish up to the time of the founding of St. Anthony's. After her removal to the West side she again became identified with the Cathedral parish. She was a loyal and faithful member of the church, and lived in strict accord with its teachings; she also interested herself deeply in the welfare of both parishes. She contributed generously from her means and gave her services to the advancemen [sic] of the parishes in whatever manner she could.

Mrs. Ahern was an exemplary woman and her life had a beneficient influence on the community in which it was spent; she stood always for the cause of righteousness, and as friend and neighbor she met every obligation and paid it with a most willing hand and heart; she will long be remembered in the old neighborhood in which she lived for so many years. She is survived by two sons and two daughters, James and Cornelius and Mary and Sarah. The funeral took place Wednesday morning at 9 o'clock from St, Ambrose cathedral, when a solemn high mass of requiem was celebrated by Rev. J. T. Norman of St. Anthony's, Rev. C.

MRS. AHERN
WELL KNOWN PIONEER WOMAN OF THE TOWNSHIP OF EIDSVOLD
DIED AT HER HOME FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1919
Mrs Catherine Ahern died at her home in Eidsvold last Friday, November 28th. She had been in poor health for a number of years and for the last month had ben confined to her bed. She was 76 years of age.

The funeral was held from St. Edward's Church, in Minneota, last Tuesday morning, and was attended by a large number of relatives, friends and neighbors. She is survived by six sons and four daughters and her sons acted as pall-bearers at the funeral. The services at the church were solemn requiem high mass with Father Stewart as celebrant and Fathers Schaefer and Van Walleghem as deacon and sub deacon respectively. Father Stewart preached the funeral sermon which was a touching and eloquent tribute to the deceased. Many who hear this sermon say that it was the most masterly funeral oration that they have listened to.

The maiden name of the deceased was Catherine Brown and she was born in Waterford, Ireland, December 19, 1843. She came to America about the year 1863 or 1864, and about a year after her arrival in this country, she was married to Garrett Ahern in Springfield, Illinois. Mr. and Mrs. Ahern continued to live in Springfield until 1883 when they decided to court fortune on the virgin prairies of Minnesota.They arrived in Lyon County that same year and homesteaded near the present site of the Village of Taunton. Fourteen years later, in 1897, just 22 years ago this fall, Garrett Ahern died. This left the management of the home and farm upon the mother who proved in every way equal to the great task thus suddenly devolving upon her. She managed the home, inside and out, and showed remarkable executive ability in all that she undertook. It was not an easy task that confronted her, some of the children at that time being very young. But Mrs. Ahern was an unusual woman. She coupled with good health and physical strength, a strong mind and a character of the most sturdy kind. She planned well and she executed her plans with unerring exactness. She kept her family together, brought them up in the fear of God, taught them to love home and country and to do their share as members of the household and citizens of the community, and we say it with full knowledge of the facts that there has not gone out from any home in this settlement a more loyal set of young people than have from time to time come from under the "roof-tree" of the Ahern home. These children, now men and women taking their part in the world's work, are living monuments to the loving care of this noble Christian woman.

It is impossible, in a short newspaper article, to do justice to the character of this woman. What some of our pioneers have meant to the community and to their families and friends, can not be told in a few sentences. At best the most eloquent tribute is but lame and halting and when we can in truth say, as we can in this instance, "well done, thou good and faithful servant" we are pronouncing that verdict than which, there is none more simple nor more filled with meaning. Mrs. Ahern lived and died a true Catholic. She was active in all the good work of the parish and she was one of those who contributed in thought, act and deed to the building up of the struggling congregation of St. Edward's church in its early days. Father Stewart tells us that hers was one of the most inspiring religious lives that it has been his privilege to know and he said that no words of praise could be pronounced in her memory that were not deserved. The children who survive the deceased are: Phil P., James J., Thomas G., William C., Michael F., Garrett F., Mrs. T. F. Walsh, Mrs. M.J. Breen, Mrs. C.E. Erickson and Miss Josie Ahern. She is also survived by a brother, James Brown.
