]. J, DOUGAN DEAD.

Our people were panied to learn
of the death of J. J. Dougan, super
inleadent of the South Penn at
this place, which came over the
wire on Tuesday morning. Mr..
Dougan was taken sick the prev
ious Tuesday and bore his suffer
ings patiently. He was taken TO
Dr.. Rau's North Wheeling hospital
last Friday morning In the care of
N. Bane G. P. Smith and others,
where he was operated on for the
ailment. He seemed to improve
until Sunday night, when he sud.
denly became worse and continued
sinking until the end, early TIES
day morning. His wife was In
New York state attending a sick
relative, and was called to his bed
side. Arrangements were made to
hold the funeral at his old home In
New York, and the remains were
sent there tor 1nterment.
Mr.. Dougan was about 40 years
old and leaves a wife and three
children to mourn his demise. As
a noble, upright gentleman, the
South Penn and Its many employees
here and elsewhere lose kind,
patient and capable man of strict
est integrity: man whose acquain.
lance became growing virtue.
To the loving wife and children,
the sympathy of all who knew
them Is sincerely extended.
The deceased came here early In
December last year, and during his
stay here made many friends. Mrs.
Dorgan and the children shared in
the affection of our people, and the
sudden blow to them so timex
pected, casts a gloom that time
alone can remove. Mr.. Dougan
was consistent and faithful Roman
Catholic, a God-fearlng man. one
whom we may ali emulate. Peace
to hts ashes!-Smithfeld Darrick.
