known and most popular residents OF
East Ottumwa, died suddenly Satur

ter, Mrs. e. P. Canny, 100 North Iowa

with which he had been suffering for
some time. Mr.. Breakey sat out on
the porch during the late hours Of the

his supper. After the meal, however
he became tired and sought rest on a
large lounge. Shortly after o'clock
he fell from the lounge to the floor,
dead.
The passing Of John Breakey re.
moves man whose friendship
was priced by all with whom he
came in contact. He had lived in
Ottumwa since 1880, coming here from
Chicago, where he was employed by
the packing firm of John Morrell &
Co. Until ten years ago, when he re-
tired, Mr.. Breakey had been asso-

crews that built the Southern Pacific
railroad line. In 1875, he became con-
nected with the firm of John Morrell
& Co., in Chicago, being placed IN
charge of the curing department. Five
years later, the firm brought him to
Ottumwa to take the same position
with the local house. Later Mr..
Breakey was given the superintend-
ency Of the Ottumwa plant and served
in that capacity during the fire of
1893. At his own volition he was
transferred back to the curing depart
ment, and was in charge of the pickle
and salt curing parts of the plant un-
til he lett the employ Of the firm about
ten years ago. Since then he has
been retired, devoting his time largely
to the comfort afforded him by his
children and grandchildren here and
in Portland, Ore. Mrs. Breakey died
some twelve years ago and another
