THOMAS FOLEY.

Many friends were shocked and sad
dened to hear of the death Saturday
morning of Thos. Foley. He had been
in poor health for some time past. lie
had made his home with his daughter
Sadie, who has been very devoted and
unremitting in her care during all his
illness. Mr.. Foley came to Island Pond
in the early sixties, employed up to
few years since by the railway company.
He was good friend, kind obliging
neighbor and an honest upright citizen.
Three sons and two daughters survive
him. The funeral service (solemn high
mass of requiem) was held Monday at
St. James Church, and was attended by
large gathering of sympathizlng
friends. Deceased was about 70 years
old.
