TIPPERARY.
We deeply regret to record the de-
mise of Brother G. Mcguire, which
took place on July 90 in the Mater
Misericordiae Hospital, Dublin. He
had been ailing for some weeks before.
but no one suspected the nature of the
serious malady from which he was suf-
fering. Towards the beginning of
July his illness rapidly developed and
an operation was judged necessary.
but he succumbed the fourth day
after. The Christian Brothers have
lost in him one of their most eXcmp-
larry members The people Of Nenagl,
among whom he passed the last twelve
years of his devoted life, will deeply
lament his loss; and the little children,
for whom he spent himself. will low
ingly utter many a heartfelt prayer
for the reposc of the soul of one whose
every thought and energy We're en-
ployed for their welfare.
