ANOTHER PIONEER

Called to Eternal
Home.

Louisville lost another pioneer
Irlsh-American and exemplary Cath
olic gentleman through the death of
Bernard e. cassidy, who passed into
eternity on Tuesday night. Mr.. Cas-
silly was born in Ireland seventy-six
years ago, but the greater part of
his life was spent in Louisville.
Forty years ago, when this city be-
gar to recover from the effects of
Bloody Monday and Knownothing-
ism. Mr.. cassidy was one of the
leading spirits among the Irish-born
citizens, and helped his fellow coun-
trymen in their efforts to bring
about better and more tolerant con-
ditions not only for Irish Catholics
but for immigrants from other
lands. In those good old days men
like Bernard Cassidy, Pat Bannon,
Barney McAtee, John McAteer, Bar
ney Campbell, jeremiah Kavanagh
and William NJ. Collins were not
only political powers. but they were
excmplars for other Irishmen. Most
of them have passed into their
eternal rewards. Only a few of
Jhtlh are lSlJ u indih lnt pdSSlnS
time
More than forty years ago Mr..
cassidy served a term as a member
Of the Kentucky Legislature and in
1872 was member of the commits
sion that framed a city charter for
Louisville. For years he was en-
gagged in a general contracting bust
ness, but finally retired on account
of the infirmities of old age.
The deceased was an exemplary
Catholic. He was the first President
of st Johns Conference of the st.
Vincent de Paul Society. and was
also named as one of the trustees
of ST. Joseph's Industrial School for
Boys. His eldest son is a noted
Jesuit, the Rev. Father Francis B.
Cassidy, of st. Xavier's College, Gin
cinnati. The other surviving chill
dren are John p. Cassidy, the court
stenographer; C. Joseph Cassidy,
Louis V. cassidy, Miss Ella Cassidy,
Mrs. Agnes Watson and Mrs. r. f.
Vaughan, of 335 East st. Catherine
street. with whom he spent his re-
tiring days. The funeral took place
from st. Paul's church on Thursday
morning and the Rev. Father York
paid fitting tribute to the memory
of the deceased.
