j.. SHANAHAN PASSES AWAY
AT MADISON LAKE, FRI
D AY MORNING.

Mr.. J:J. Shanahan one Of the pio-
neer settlers of Blue Earth county
and for twenty-eight years 9 resid-
ent of Jamestown, died at his home
in Madison Lake at eight Q CLOCK
this NJ orning, aged sixty three.
In the death of Mr.. Shanahan the
people of Blue Earth county have
lost one of their most loyal and we'll
known citizens, the wife a most
genial, lovable and kind hearted
husband and the children most
atfectionate and indulgent father.
Deceased was one of those positive
characters who never ran from dan
ger, never evaded duty and never
apologized for what he believed was
right though opposed by a multi
tude. He was as generous as he
was positive, and he could never do
too much nor go too far to befriend
a friend. !
Mr.. Shanahan was born in the
City of Cork, Ireland, but his moth
or having been left a widow about
the time of. the birth of the son, she
removed to London, England, when
J.J. was about two years old. When
sixteen years of age, young shana-
han thought to try his fortunes il
America, first settling in Indiana.
Here he lived unfit the fall of 1865,
when he migrated west, locating in
Shakopee, where he resided until
1877 at which date he purchased =
farm in Jamestown where he lived
until last fall when he sold his farm
and bought a little home in Madi-
son Lake.. intending to spend the
balance of hie days in quiet enjoy
ment. =. For the past year the DE-
ceased had been failing in health,
although his indomitable will power
kept hi up and about until a few
days previous to his death. Hewas
cheerful-as became his nature to
the last, and his mind, always keen
and alert, was clear to the last. But
the end came and he was prepared
to meet it, conscious and content, in
the thought that his life had been
spent in trying to do unto others as
he would have others do unto him.
One of the last requests that he
made was: II have four boys and ]
want only four handles on my col
in and M. SONS to bear me to my
last resting..place." ~ This wish will
be carried out to the letter. @
Mr.. Sbanahan leaves a wife, four
sons, G. j., N. p, and B. F. and j.

ins, Miss Nellie and Miss Tilla. The

The question Of whether latin
stpays" in the high school is being
debated by the school board at
Pennington This question has been
discussed here by parents to some
extent aud where ever brought up
there has been sentiment that it
was q waste of time and energy to
study it: Tho following from Pres.
Northrop of the State University:
may be PERMITTED to say that re-
gard tho study Of latin, both on &C.
count OF its intimate relation to our
own vocabulary, and on account of
its disciplinary effects, as an exceed
ingly desira bic study, and think
that students generally in high
schools shall be encouraged to take
at least one year in Latin, in order
that they may know what they are
osing if they do not take Latin, and
be able to judge wisely whether
they will take more. OF course, I
understand for students who are not
going thru the high school and not
going thru the university, there are
subjects that are, perhaps, more
practical than Latin; at the same
time, every student is stronger for
knowing something about the Latin
language and its voca bulary. I do
not think it would be wise move
ment to discourage the study of Lat
in and substitute for it two years of
French and two years Of German,
which would hardly be sufficient
work in these languages to give one
a command Of them as spoken lang
uages; while their relation to our
own language is much less close
than that of the Latin, 80 far as the
cabulary is concerned.
