tory that illustrates the theory that
crime is hereditary. The Flaherty
family consisted of father, mother,
three sons. and two daughters. The
father, Patrick, was a notorious thief

several terms in the penitentiary for
various offences. In 1874 ne was

tiary. The oldest Aon, Thomas, was
a thief from childhood. He began
his career with Abe Coakley, now in
the Tombs for cotaplioiLy in the
Manhattan Bank burglary, Martin
Broderick, Molutz, and other noted
criminals. Their chief occupation
wGs stealing cotton during the war,
when that staple fetched enormous
prices. After serving several terms
n the penitentiary, Thomas was
arrested in 1875 for picking pockets
and sentenced to Sing Sing. He
escaped, but was recaptured, he be-
ing re arrested for the same crime
about a year after his escape. He
was convicted add sentenced again,
but escaped while on his way to
Sing Sing. Deputy SAeriffs 'Rurns
and. MulhollaRd had him In charge
when he jumped through car win
dow, It is believed that he is now
in Canada. ..--at
jim, the second son, was sent to
Clinton prison for three years for
picking pockets, He was taken sick
with cancer of the stomach, became
refractory and was placed in dark
cell His sufferings became so in
tense that he cried all night. The
keepers attempted to correct him,
and ia the struggle that ensued it is
alleged that he was strangled to
death.
Patrick, Dr., the youngest son, is
now serving out five years sen
tence for burglary in the first de-
gree. While attempting to rob a
house in Roosevelt street about six
months ago he was caught In the
act by Detective Carr of the Oak
street police. He pleaded guilty.
The elder daughter is an habitue of
vile resorts, and has served one
term 10 the penitentiary for stealing
diamond pin from conspicuous
sporting man. The mother and
daughter were in the penitentiary at
the same time. The younger daugh.
ter is an exception to the rest OF
the family, she being respectable
