NECROLOGY.

The following members of the Society died during the year 1905, much and deservedly regretted:

Brennan, Michael, New York City; owner of the Hotel San Remo, Central Park West, New York, and other property. He was born in Sligo, Ireland, 1832; died at his home, 2 West 75th Street, New York, May 30. He was a member of the New York Friendly Sons of St. Patrick and of the Catholic Club. He became a member of the American-Irish Historical Society soon after the organization of the latter, and the first meeting and dinner held by the Society in New York took place at his hotel, the San Remo, just mentioned.

Collins, Hon. Patrick A., mayor of Boston, Mass. He was born in Fermoy, County Cork, Ireland, March 12, 1844, died at Hot Springs, Va., Sept. 14, 1905. His mother brought him to this country when he was but four years of age. They settled in Chelsea, Mass. In the course of time, Patrick entered the law school of Harvard University and was graduated therefrom in 1871. He had gone into political affairs while he was a student and had been elected a member of the Massachusetts House of Representatives in 1868. He served two terms there and one in the State Senate. When he was admitted to the bar, in 1871, Mr. Collins made public announcement of his determination not to hold public office again in ten years. He kept to the resolution, but he stayed in politics. He became chairman of the Boston Democratic Committee in 1873 and held the responsibilities of the place for two years. He served as judge advocate-general on the staff of Governor Gaston of Massachusetts. While in the Legislature, Collins was identified with the passage of such liberal and reformatory legislation as freedom of worship for Catholics in penal, correctional and charitable institutions, the abolition of a distinct oath for Catholics, the ten-hour law, and legislation looking towards equal rights for foreign-born citizens. He was married in 1873 to Mary E. Cary. They had three children, Paul, Agnes and Marie. After serving two terms as congressman from the fourth Massachusetts district, he declined a third term, but was forced in his party’s interest to reconsider his decision. During his three terms in Congress he served on the Committee on the Judiciary, and sometimes in addition on the Committees on Pacific Railroads, French Spoliation Claims and other important bodies. He was delegateat-large to the National Democratic Conventions of 1876, 1880, 1884 and 1892. He was permanent chairman of the 1888 convention and made an address which attracted admiring attention from the whole country, as did his speech seconding the nomination of Grover Cleveland four years later. It was generally understood that Mr. Cleveland offered Mr. Collins a cabinet office, but Mr. Collins declined to take such office. Mr. Cleveland gave him instead one of the highest-paid government posts, that of consul-general at London, where the salary is $5,000 a year, and the fees in Mr. Collins’ time amounted to about $25,000 a year or more. Mr. Collins resigned from the chairmanship of the Democratic State Committee and went to London. When he was consul-general Mr. Cleveland again asked him to come into the cabinet as secretary of war. Mr. Collins refused. He was quoted as saying that he refused because he “didn’t care for second-hand clothes.” He never denied the remark. At the opening ceremonies of the Hotel Cecil, Mr. Collins’ remarks regarding the good will of Mr. Cleveland toward the British people were jeered by some of his hearers. He turned on them and said: “There is no antagonism between the United States and any well-meaning state on earth. If the rest of the world understood the United States as well as the United States understands the rest of the world there would never be any danger to peace between my country and other nations.” There were no more jeers. In 1897 Mr. Collins returned to the practice of law in Boston. He was nominated for mayor in 1899, but was beaten by differences in his own party. He was elected the next term, was re-elected, and held the office at the time of his death.

Galligan, Edward F. (M. D.), Taunton, Mass. He was a native of that city and was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Patrick Galligan. He studied medicine and was graduated from the medical department of Harvard University. In 1884, he was appointed city physician of Taunton and filled the position for several years. He was a trustee of the Morton Hospital, a member of the Taunton Physicians’ Club, of the North Bristol Medical Society and of the American Medical Association. He died Sept. 26, 1905.

Harty, Rev. John, a Roman Catholic clergyman; rector of the Church of the Sacred Heart, Pawtucket, R. I. He was a native of Ireland, and was ordained to the priesthood in Dublin, 1874. He died, June 2. He was at one period connected with St. Patrick’s Church, Providence, R. I., and was later rector of the church in East Providence.

Hayes, John, Manchester, N. H. He was a native of Ireland, and was of a splendid type as a man and a citizen. He died at Manchester in March. One of his sons, the late Hon. John J. Hayes, of Boston, Mass., was also a member of the Society.

Hicks, Michael, New York City; inventor of the “Hurricane lamp,” which was used on railway trains, and especially in the Pullman palace cars, until it was supplanted by the Pintsch light. He was born in County Meath, Ireland, 1832; died at his residence, 147 West 121st Street, New York, March 6.

Linehan, Hon. John C., Penacook (Concord), N. H. He was state insurance commissioner of New Hampshire; a founder of the American-Irish Historical Society and treasurer-general of the same from its organization in January, 1897, to August, 1905, when he resigned owing to ill health. Commissioner Linehan was born in Macroom, County Cork, Ireland, Feb. 9, 1840, and came to this country in 1849. He was a son of John and Margaret (Foley) Linehan. He enlisted in August, 1861, in the band of the Third New Hampshire Volunteers and in after years was prominently identified with the Grand Army of the Republic, holding various offices therein. He served as a councilman and alderman of Concord, was chosen a member of the executive council of the state of New Hampshire to serve during the term of Gov. Charles H. Sawyer in 1887 and 1888. He was appointed trustee for the state industrial school by Gov. Samuel W. Hale in 1884, and except for a brief interval of a few months served continually since. He was secretary of the board for several years, and since 1897 was its president. He was also one of the committee to select the location for the Concord soldiers’ monument, as well as to select its design and inscription. He was appointed insurance commissioner of New Hampshire for three years by Gov. David H. Goodell, on Sept. 28, 1890. He was reappointed in 1893 by Gov. John B. Smith, in 1896 by Gov. Charles A. Busiel, and in 1899 by Gov. Frank W. Rollins. His record as insurance commissioner is well known. He was fearless and conscientious in the performance of his duties and received the commendations of his superiors, the governors and councils, as well as of the people of the state. His management of the insurance department was highly commended, and throughout the country he bore the reputation of being an honest, fearless, conscientious and capable public servant. A pamphlet published by the United States government in 1894, in which was printed the argument of Hon. John L. Thomas, assistant attorney-general, for the post office department, in the case of the United States v. the National Investment Company, contained 19 pages of extracts from Commissioner Linehan’s reports for the years 1891–’92–’93. He was one of the charter members of William I. Brown Post, G. A. R., and its first commander, filling the position over two years. He was chosen to represent the Department of New Hampshire, G. A. R., at the National Encampment in Albany in 1878, and a member of the national Council of Administration in 1880–81. He was elected department commander of New Hampshire in 1883 and 1884, and was appointed a member of the National Pension Committee, serving until 1887, when he was unanimously chosen junior vice-commander-in-chief, G. A. R. He was president of the New Hampshire Veteran Association in 1885 and 1886, and from its institution, with the exception of several years, its musical director. When his candidacy for the office of commander-in-chief at the annual G. A. R. encampment in Cincinnati in 1898 was before his comrades throughout the country, it received the heartiest indorsement, and when he withdrew there was much regret. He was elected one of the board of directors of the Gettysburg Battlefield Monument Association, and placed on the Executive Committee in 1884. He was a trustee of the Loan & Trust Savings Bank of Concord, a member of the New Hampshire Historical Society, Knights of Columbus, and of the Charitable Irish Society of Boston. He was a steady contributor to weeklies and periodicals. He contributed a chapter, The Irish in New Hampshire, to McClintock’s History of New Hampshire, also a chapter to the History of the First New Hampshire Regiment, on The Irish of New Hampshire in the Civil War, and a chapter to the History of the Seventeenth New Hampshire Regiment, on Music and Songs of the War. He has written many sketches on the early Irish settlers in the thirteen colonies, which have been published in papers and magazines. Several papers from his pen have appeared in the publications of the American-Irish Historical Society. He received a degree from Dartmouth College in 1887. He was also in demand as a speaker and lecturer, and had spoken more or less during every political campaign since 1884. He was married to Mary E. Pendergast by the Rev. John O’Donnell, in Nashua, N. H., Jan. 2, 1864. Of the children born to them, four survive—Margaret, now Sister Mary Joseph, of the Order of Mercy; John Joseph, Timothy Patrick and Henry Francis. Commissioner Linehan died Sept. 19, 1905.

Naphen, Hon. Henry F., Boston, Mass. He was a native of Ireland, and was born in 1852. He came to this country and was educated in Boston and Lowell, Mass. He graduated from Harvard University with the degree of LL. B., and also took a special course at that institution as resident LL. B., later continuing law studies at Boston University. He was elected a member of the Boston School Committee for three years, and at the end of that period declined a renomination. In 1885 and 1886 he represented the Fifth Suffolk District in the State Senate. In 1898 he was elected to Congress in the Tenth Massachusetts District. Throughout his first term he made memorable speeches on the Porto Rican question, the trusts, the Philippine question, improvement of Boston harbor, and many other important measures. Renominated by his party in 1900, Congressman Naphen was reëlected by a majority of more than 7,200 votes, a remarkable victory. He was a member of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company, Boston Athletic Association, City Point Catholic Association, Charitable Irish Society, Catholic Union, Knights of St. Rose, Massachusetts Catholic Order of Foresters, the Knights of Columbus, and other societies; was a director and clerk of the board of directors of St. Elizabeth’s Hospital, and a vice-president of the Working Boys’ Home. He was a bail commissioner for the County of Suffolk, and was also an honorary member of Dahlgren Post 2, G. A. R., and Benj. Stone Post 68, G. A. R. He died in Boston in June.

His first command was the bark May Queen, a regular Baltimore and Rio packet, 1872. He then had command of the ship Pilgrim of Boston, and made several voyages to the East Indies. In 1884 he was given command of the Charger, a larger and finer ship than the Pilgrim, and sailed to ports in Japan. He next had command of the South American, “the Commodore’s ship,” of the Hastings fleet (Boston), and took her to Australia and other parts.

Hanrahan, John D. (M. D.), Rutland, Vt., a native of County Limerick, Ireland; was graduated in medicine from the University of the City of New York, 1867; in June, 1861, he was, on examination (not having graduated), appointed surgeon in the United States Navy, and served through the entire Civil War. The vessels on which he served did duty mostly on the rivers of Virginia and North Carolina, where he served with the army as well as the navy, thereby having the benefit and experience of both branches of the service, especially in the surgical line. In August, 1863, the vessel on which he was serving was captured at the mouth of the Rappahannock River and all on board made prisoners. They were taken overland to Richmond where they were confined in Libby Prison. At that time the Confederates were very short of surgeons and medical supplies, and be was asked if he would go over to Belle Island and attend the Union prisoners. After consulting his fellow-prisoners he consented, and for six weeks he attended the sick and wounded Union prisoners faithfully, under very great disadvantages, as the appliances were very limited. After that he was paroled. While a prisoner of war he was treated with the greatest courtesy and consideration by the medical staff and officers of the Confederacy. After the close of the war he was settled in New York city, but for nearly 40 years has been a resident of Rutland, Vt. He was town and city physician of Rutland for many years. He was appointed surgeon of the Third Vermont Regiment, 1871, by Governor Stewart; was the first president of the Rutland County Medical and Surgical Society; has been a director and consulting surgeon of the Rutland, Vt., Hospital; consulting surgeon to the Fanny Allen Hospital, Winooski, Vt.; a member of the Vermont Sanitary Association, and a member of the Vermont Society for the Prevention of Tuberculosis; president of Rutland Village two years and trustee eight years; county commissioner one year; president, United States pension examining board four years under President Cleveland, and president of same board four years under President Harrison. He was postmaster of Rutland during the second term of President Cleveland. He has since its organization been an active member of the G. A. R.; surgeon of Roberts Post, the largest in Vermont; has served three terms as medical director of the Department; served on the staffs of three commanders-in-chief—Veasy, Palmer and Weissert; a member of Commander-in-Chief Stewart’s staff. Dr. Hanrahan is the author of several medical papers, has performed many surgical operations, and has served through several epidemics of smallpox and diphtheria. He was a delegate to the Democratic National Conventions of 1884, 1888, and chairman of the Vermont delegation to the National Convention of 1892. Also a delegate to the Democratic National Convention in St. Louis, 1904, and to the Ancient Order of Hibernians Convention in St. Louis, July 19, 1904.

Kelly, Eugene, Temple Court Building, New York City.

Kelly, John Forrest (Ph. D.), Pittsfield, Mass.; born near Carrick-on-Suir, Ireland. He was educated in Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, N. J., received the degree of B. L. in 1878, and that of Ph. D. in 1881. His first occupation was as assistant to Thomas A. Edison, in Menlo Park laboratory, his work then principally relating to the chemistry of rare earths. Late in 1879 Mr. Kelly became electrical engineer of the New York branch of the Western Electric Company. This was the time when the telephone was being generally introduced, and when dynamos were being first applied to telegraphic purposes. In the construction and installment of instruments for telegraphy and telephones and of such measuring instruments as were then known, Mr. Kelly received a thorough training. In 1882 he became laboratory assistant to Edward Weston, then chief electrician of the United States Electric Lighting Company, and, with the exception of a year which he spent in connection with the Remingtons, Mr. Kelly continued his association with Mr. Weston until July, 1886. Some of the most important work, such as the research which ended in the discovery of high resistance alloys of very low or even negative temperature co-efficients, were substantially carried out by Mr. Kelly under general directions from Mr. Weston, whom Mr. Kelly succeeded as chief electrician of the United States Electric Lighting Company, which, in 1889, passed to the Westinghouse interests; but Mr. Kelly retained his position as chief electrician until January, 1892, when he resigned to join William Stanley in experimental work. The work done by Mr. Kelly, in this connection, gave a great impetus to the alternating current business. Mr. Kelly’s inventive work is partially represented by eighty patents. The art of building transformers and generators of alternating currents was revolutionized, and Mr. Kelly and his colleagues were the first to put polyphase motors into actual commercial service. That success naturally led to long-distance transmission work, and the first long-distance transmission plants in California (indeed the first in the world) were undertaken on Mr. Kelly’s recommendation and advice. He was the first to make an hysteretically stable steel, a matter of vastly more importance than the comparatively spectacular transmission work. Mr. Kelly at present occupies the position of president of the John F. Kelly Engineering Company, president of the Cokel Company and president of the Telelectric Company, as well as president of the Conchas River Power Company and director of the Southwestern Exploration Company. The Cokel Company is organized to exploit the invention of Mr. E. W. Cooke, by means of which foodstuffs may be perfectly dehydrated, losing on the average ninety per cent. in weight. Foods dehydrated by this process, although free from all chemical preservatives, are entirely stable, and yet preserve their pristine freshness through extremes of temperature, and when served are indistinguishable from fresh foods of the ordinary type. The Telelectric Company is organized for the manufacture of electric piano players, which are either entirely automatic or entirely controllable at will. Mr. Kelly was married to Miss Helen Fischer, in New York City, in 1892, and they have two children—Eoghan and Domnall. Mr. Kelly is a thorough and unswerving Irish Nationalist, and his splendid generosity to the cause is well known.

Sanders, Col. C. C., Gainesville, Ga.; president of the State Banking Co. of Gainesville; alternate commissioner to World’s Fair, Chicago, Ill., 1893; vice-president for Georgia, American Bankers’ Association. Colonel Sanders is of Irish and English ancestry. On the maternal side he is descended from Thomas and Theodosia M. Smyth, who emigrated from Ireland in 1793, landing in Charleston, S. C. They settled in Jones County, Ga. Thomas died Nov. 28, 1799. On the paternal side Colonel Sanders is a descendant of Rev. Moses Sanders, who emigrated from England, with two brothers, John and David, and arrived in Petersburg, Va., 1765. They embraced the Patriotic cause in the Revolution and were active in operations against the British. Colonel Sanders, the subject of this sketch, graduated from the Georgia Military Institute, in June, 1861; entered the Confederate service; was made lieutenant-colonel of the Twenty-fourth Regiment of Infantry, Georgia Volunteers, August, 1861; served under General Lee in the Peninsular campaign, in the seven days’ battles around Richmond, Va., and was among the bravest of the brave; commanded his regiment at Malvern Hill and at Marye’s Heights, Fredericksburg, where the Twenty-fourth was a part of the Confederate forces that received the valorous charges of Meagher’s Irish Brigade. He also commanded the regiment at the battles of Chancellorsville and Antietam, at which latter conflict he was placed in command of Wofford’s Brigade. While in this position he met a bayonet charge from the Federals by a counter bayonet charge, and in the desperate fighting that ensued, fifty-eight per cent. of Sanders’ heroic force was swept away. Colonel Sanders also led the Twenty-fourth at Cedar Creek, Chickamauga, Knoxville, the Wilderness, Spottsylvania Court House, and Sailor’s Creek. On April 6, 1865, Ewell’s Corps, to which Colonel Sanders’ regiment was then attached, was captured, and Colonel Sanders was sent as a prisoner of war to Washington, D. C. Writing of Meagher’s Irish Brigade, Colonel Sanders says: “I was in command of the Twenty-fourth Georgia Regiment, with other troops, at the foot of Marye’s Heights, receiving the five heroic and gallant charges of the Irish Brigade, whose prodigies of valor have filled the country with admiration. I saw the devoted Irish charge up to our breastworks, to be mowed down by a line of Confederate fire that no soldiers could withstand. I saw the Irish battalions cut down like grain before the reaper, yet the survivors would magnificently close up their ranks only to have huge gaps again cut through them. When forced back they rallied and came bravely on again, only to be riddled with bullets and torn by artillery. Their fifth charge was made with greatly decimated ranks that slowly recoiled like the waves of a tempestuous sea. When twilight descended upon the scene, a spectacle was presented unequaled in warfare.
