Death Claims Nicholas Lydon Pioneer
Resident o. Iowa,


Resident u Iowa.
AT Cresco, Iowa, Oh Tuesday, July
18th, at the home Of his son, Martin Z.
Lydon, occurred the death Of Nicholas
Lydon. MI. Lydon was born in Gal.
way, Ireland, eighty years ago. Be
ing the youngest OF large family,
his father dying when he was but an
infant, and his older brothers mar
ryilg or emigraliny to America, Ii,
was left the only support OF an aged
and widowed mother when very
young. He grew to manhood at the
place OF his birth, and remained at
home with his mother till her death,
after which time he came to Ameri-
ca, landing at Norfolk, Va, in the year
1917. On his arrival in the land of
his adoption, his only means were
strong arms and brave heart He
worked at different occupations in the
East for several years, the last of
which was iron ore mining. Meeting
with reverses in the way Of losing u
number OF his horses, he determined to
come West, and settle on farm. In
the year 1865 he with his wife and
two small children, Travelled by rail as
far west us G;llcEl, ILL.,. alld from There
10y steam boat to Dubuque. Iowa.
There he purchased u yoke OF oxen
and Il covered wagon, and with an
other pioneer, John Conroy, journeyed
to Chickasaw county, Iowa. There he
opened up Il small farm. on which NJ
lived for short time, moving to Paris
township, i'll Howard county, Iowa,
in the latter part Of the year 1856.
There lie settled on a farm, upon
Which he lived continuously for 81
years. In 1892 he retired from the
farm, moving to New Hampton, Ia,
from which place, in 1897, he removed
to Cresco, Iowa, where he resided till
his death, making his home with his
son, Martin Z. Lydon. Mr.. Lydon
was man of high moral character,
honest and honorable, always uphold
ing what he considered right and
browning on what he considered
wrong, regardless of consequences to
himself. A kind and devoted hus-
band, and loving father, he COM
manded the respect of his neighbors
and friends regardless of politics or
religion. Always willing to lend q
helping hand to the needy, he labored
for others rather than for his own per-
sonal comfort. In the year 1851 he
was married to Mary Foley at Boston,
Mass. From this union eight chill
dren were born, as follows: Bridget
Lydon, Of McCook, Neb.; Michael and
Thos. p, Of Minneapolis; John Il. of
Davenport, Iowa; Mary, of st. Paul,
Mimi; Martin p, of Cresco, Iowa; and
James NJ, Of Lead S. d. Catherine,

age of IS months. All the above
named, with their mother, were at lis
bed side at the time Of his death, ex-
cept Bridget and James, who did not
arrive till later. His nephew, John
Foley, Of New Hampton, Iowa, was
also present. Mr.. Lydon died as he
lived, devoted member Of the Cath
Ollie Church, and was laid to rest by
loving hands in the Catholic cemetery
at Lourdes, Iowa, within the shadow
of the church that he helped to build,
and close by the farm where he lived
and labored so long. His remains rest
