John Foran died at his home on the Cloverdale Road in the northern edge of the city on Sunday after a long illness of heart trouble. The burial occurred Monday. On Monday evening his son, Timothy Foran aged about 25 died. For several years the latter had been afflicted with great bodily illness. The family has been particularly unfortunate as the last death makes four in the family since September last, the mother and a son dying within that time. The remains of young Mr. Foran were buried from St. Paul’s Church yesterday morning. - transcribed by kbz
