Was shipwrecked In New Jersey
Inlet When Preparing to
Land in New
York.

George Mccormick, one of the old
est and best known citizens of Keo-
kuk, died at his home 1908 High
street, at about O'clock this morn
ing, after long and varied Illness.
Mr.. Mccormick was born In the
north of Ireland December %, 1928,
and would have attained the ripe old
age OF ninety years had he lived un-
til the 22d day of next December. In
early manhood he experienced long
Ing for home in the United States.
After passing his teens he was mar
ried in Ireland to the Irish lass of his
choice. Two children were born to
this union in "the green isle beyant
the sea- but time had not eased that
longing in his heart to come to Amer
lea. At the age Of thirty-one years
he gathered together his little family,
his wife and two children, and such
belongings as he desired to bring
with him as mementos Of the dear old
land of his nativity. he departed from
Ireland about the first of November,
1854, on the good, but i'll fated steamer
st. Patrick. 1t proved a somewhat
perilous voyage of six long, anxious
weeks. He managed to spend the trip
pleasantly, becoming favorite among
the sailors aboard and the ships
crew and was soon exceedingly alert
In climbing the ropes and ships rig
g1ng. This pleased the sailors and
they soon became fond Of their newly
made acquaintance. He had aboard
historical fife with which he enter
tanned the sailors to their delight and
which the passengers also enjoyed,
making the naturally dreary period
bright and lively and shortening the
hours Of the long voyage.
On approaching the harbor at New
York the good ship st. Patrick fonn>
dered and slowly sank In Barnegat
inlet, December 10, off the coast Of
New Jersey. A skipper relieved the
perilous position of the passengers
and all aboard were saved. After
reaching shore in safety with his
little family Mr.. Mccormick discover
ed that his historic fife had been left
behind and he waded back through
cold water knee deep to HE chest of
goods and secured the musical instru.
ment which had inspired brave SOL
diers in battles fought over two hun
bred years before.
This same old fife has given inspi.
ration In Keokuk on many patriotic
and old settler occasions. Saws a
writer: 1T has been only few years
ago when it was thought that no
meeting in Keokuk would be com.
plete where FIFE and drum would be
appropriate, if George Mccormick was
not there to enliyen the occasion"
Mr. Mccormick came to Keokuk in
1856 and had continued his residence
mere since that time. While practic-
ally retired, living with his daughter
Mrs. G. Fl. Decker, 1908 High street
he continued to freanently meet his
friends. Several months ago he suf-
fered stroke of paralysis from
which, after many days he partially
recovered, but which continually
troubled him. He fought heroically
and patiently for life, but age besides
! his affection, bore down upon him IN
til the death angel kindly came as a
friendly messenger, and bore him
away from his earthly cares and in

MEXICAN WAR WAS
A FALSE ALARM
CONTINUED from page -

y
|of foreign affairs, Gamboa, President
Huerta had officially denied or at
least repudiated the statement that
the Mexican government had sent an
ultimatum for its recognition by mid
night and delivered passports to
O'Shaughnessy.
The high tension. OF the Mexican
situation was relieved today by the
two oablegrams. The president de-
cided to take no further action and to
issue no further instructions until
more detailed reports reached here.
The cordial reception given by Huerta
to Lind last night was regarded as a
most hopeful sign, indicating that
Huerta had not finally and decisively
rejected the mediation plan but was
willing to continue negotiations per
sonally with Lind regardless of the
latter's unofficial standing.
In his message today Lind report
ed that he was summond to President
Huerta's palace at 10 o'clock last
night and remained in conference with
Huerta until midnight.

Grand Jury Investigation.

ALBANY. N. Y, Aug. 19.-An extra.
ordinary grand jury session may be
ordered by Acting Governor Glynn to
investigate the escape Of Harry
Thaw. Glynn is incensed over the re-
port that bribery opened the prison
gates for the insane slayer of Stanford
White. He is having private inyesti-
cation made. Detectives have told
him the names Of men they believe are
suspects. These men are believed to
have been the only ones who carried
1t out. The real persons have not yer
been found. although there is strong
suspicion as to their identity. AS
soon as his reports are complete the
acting governor plans to order them
presented to a special grand jury for
indictments. Glynn proposed that this
fragrant disregard for the law shall be
punished With this in mind, he IA

ent of that of the institution authori-
ties.
1t is stated that Thaw practically
ran the institution. Guards came and
went at Thaws' beck, it Is alleged. If
this is proved, Glynn will demand
prompt action by Riley.

conference during the night with
Provisional President Huerta, today

Washington. Americans here are In
