4 Died Fun of Years.

We clip the following from the St. AL
bans (Vt.} Messenger, regarding the death
Of jeremiah Fitzgerald, father OF J: j..
Fitzgerald, of the Plymouth Clothing
House, this city:
s .Dled-In Fairfield, October 81, 1886,
Jeremiah Fitzgerald, aged 80 years. By the
death Of MI. Fitzgerald one OF the old land
marks, of whom but few is left In Fair
field, ia removed, and he leaves the record
81: a life that will long cause him to be
counted among those whom we miss. Liv-
ing to an age that is rarely allotted to man,
he also lived life Of such blameless char
acter as is rarely accredited to mankind In
our day He was jealous, conscientious
Christian, good neighbor and an esteemed
citizen. Born in Castle Island, County
Kerry, Ireland. in 1902, he came to this
country when young man settling in Fair
fed over forty years ago on the farm where
he resided ever since till the time of his
death. To the day Of his death he retained
a lively and Intelligent interest in business
and public affairs and passed peacefully
and painiessly away, dying literally of old
age. He leaves to mourn him one son,
James, who resides in Minneapolis, Mimi.
and two daughters. Ellen, and Mrs. Duffy,
both of whom reside In Fairfield, his young
SON Thomas having died q few months ago.
