DEATH OF PETER FORTUNE.

In the death of Peter Fortune Chi
cago lost one of its very best citizens.
Identified with the growth OF the city
from the time when its population
and influence were small, he Kept
pace with 1t and took part in every
movement which increased its prom.
inence and helped to make Chicago
great. Not only In material and bust.
ness affairs was Peter Fortune active
His charity knew no bounds. His
heart kept step with his great brain
and his benefactions We're numerous
and unforgetable. Mr.. Fortune was
modest and transformations In the ex.
IRENE. He never sought the public
eye or cared for praise. Simple In
his tastes, he was generous to q
fault and an army OF friends testify
to his many good qualities In the
business world no man was more
highly respected. His name was a
synonym for honesty.
Mr.. Fortune, who was a widower
for many years, leaves daughter,
Miss Joanna Fortune and son, John
l.. Fortune.
Peter Fortune was born at Round
town, County Wexford, not far from
Dublin, Ireland. When very young
he went TO work for a grocer in Dub
lin, but left this employment TO come
10 the United States in 1854 He OBJ
tanned a position with the old Galena
railroad, now the Chicago a. North
western, in its Chicago depot and held
It until 1856, when he opened a groc'
cry store at the corner of Polk and
Desplaines streets. He was after
wards for a time connected with
the famous old O'Neill brewery on
South Water street, where he learned
the brewery business. In 1862 he es
tablished the Fortune Brothers Brew
cry in partnership with his brother
John. They brewed ale exclusively
from 1862 to 1876, when Fortune
Brothers commenced the brewing OF
lager beer They met with great sue
cess and the big establishment al Var
Buren, and Desplaines streets is the
result Few men have died in this
community as deeply regretted as
Peter Fortune.
