pArnYoK m,kENNA,s DEATH.

Il
After An Illness of Four Days With
Conoe.tfon of the Brain-A PrOmi-
nent citizen and Sterling Business
Man.
Patrick McKenna, one of the most |
prominent Irishmen of this city, died at |
his fine residence at 1888 Franklin street,
yesterday morning at 10 o'clock after an
illness of four days with congestion of the
brain. The news of his death was sur
prise to his large circle of friends, for it
was not over week ago that he was seen
about town, apparently as hale and hearty
as ever. He was attended during his ILL
ness by DR.. Judson.
The deceased was ffty-four years Of age.
He was born in Newtown Forbes, Long
ford county, ireland, in 1886 and came to
this country when at the age of fourteen
years. For eleven years he combatted with
the ups and dowwnsof life in New York and
was more than ordinarily successful. In
1861 he came to this city and engaged in
sthe wholesale liquor business. From this
period his sterling qualities of character
and his shrewd business ability made him
prominent figure among the people of
his nationality in this city. He amassed q
considerable fortune and at the time of
his death he was considered as among
the most wealthy Irishmen in this city.
Although for many years prominent in
many public affairs and institutions Of the
city, Mr.. McKenna never seemed to de-
sire political office, but nevertheless he
took an active interest in municipal, state
and national affairs, and his influence has
often been felt in local politics. He was
q prominent member of st. Patrick g
church and was director of the st. Fran
els orphan asylum and of st. Lawrence
Cemetery association. He was one of the
| organizers of the Knights of st. Patrick,
one of the foremost Irish societies Of the
| city, and was at one time president of
| this body. He was also director in the
State street and Whitney avenue horse
railroad company.
The deceased leaves widow and two
children-Eugene P. and Lily E. McKenna
| Ito mourn his loss. The funeral will be
held on Wednesday morning at 8 o'clock.
Rev. Father Russell Of st. Patrick's church
will conduct the services The interment
will be in st. Demands cemetery.
Mr.. McKenna was well known figure
| among the business circles Of the city.
His hale and hearty manner, cheerful,
kindly face and general good fellowship
| made him most entertaining person to
| meet, and his popularity because of these
cordial characteristics was remarkable. He
was fond Of good horses, and owned a
spanking team with which he took much
pleasure. The races also attracted his
enthusiastic attention. He was public
spirited in all matters in which the many
| were interested, and hisloss will be keenly
| felt by his people and the many friends

Died IN EAST HAVEN.

His Funeral Yesterday-A Venerable
and Thoroughly Conscientious In
! structor - Formerly for Years a
school Principal in New Haven
The Late Jonathan Dudley.
Mr.. Jonathan Dudley, whose death oc-
CURED in East Haven Friday morning, was
an old, well known and highly esteemed
gentleman, who for many years was resi-
dent of this city, having taught school
here for quite long period, which con-
cluded at about the time of the inception
of the graded schools here. For num-
Der Of years he taught what was then pop
larly known in New Haven at sDudley's"
school, which was situated on Wallace
street opposite the rear shop of the L.
Candse Rubber company The old build
ing is still standing, but has been moved
about two hundred feet front to the line
of the street. Mr.. Dudley was one of the
| foremost and most thorough instructors of
his day in New Haven, and withal the
strictest kind of a disciplinarian. He was
firm believer in the motto, "Order is
| heavens first law" and carefully endeav-
ored to thoroughly Undue the minds of his
pupils with the same idea. He resided for
years while in this city on Greene street,
| next to what is now the Eaton school.
| During the latter part of the time that he
taught here the late Hon. James F. Bah
| cock was chairman of the board of educa-
ton. About thirty years ago he removed
| to East Haven, where he conducted with
success private school He was actively
engaged in teaching up to about twelve
years ago, when, on account of his adj
vancing years, he gave up teaching
and settled down to quiet and peace
full old age on arfarm, where he lived to the
ripe old age of eighty-fyeyears. His death,
which occurred Friday morning at 2
O'Clock, was quite, sudden, heart disease
being the cause thereof. He. had been
quite feeble for month past in conse-
ed election day, the last time he was out
of the house. During the last night of his
| life he was more than usually restless,
changing from his bed to chair several
times during the night. His daughter,
Mrs. E. M. Warner, was with him at the
time of his decease. He passed away very
calmly and peacefully, sitting in hischair.
Mr.. Dudley was most conscientious and
/ pious old gentleman, whose whole life
was nodded and fashioned after the law OF
| God, and whose aim in life was to do good
| to his fellow man in every way possible
! and live uprightly.
The funeral services took place from his
late residence yesterday afternoon and
were largely attended The services were
conducted by Rev. D. j. Clark, pastor Of
the Congregational church, who paid glow
ing tribute to the exemplary life Of the de-
erased. The interment took place in Ever
green cemetery, this city. His daughter
Mrs. Warner, is his sole survivor. His
wife died two years ago. She was q very
estimable wife and mother and since hel
death Mr.. Dudley's health has steadily
failed. Mr.. Dudley was a member of the
Congregational church, East Haven. Dur
ing the years that he taught school in New
Haven he had over twelve hundred differ
emit pupils under his charge.
