CALLAHAN, VINCK, NEELY, MCCONNELL

James L. CALLAHAN, 48 years old, died at his home at Oakdale on Sunday,
November 21. The deceased was a well-known oil producer and had been
engaged in the nitroglycerine business for many years. He left home when
nine years old and succeeded in amassing a nice little fortune. He is
survived by his wife and one son, James Jr., aged 7 years. The funeral
services were held in St. Patrick's Church at Noblestown on Tuesday
afternoon. Interment was in the Oakdale cemetery.

Foretelling her death to the very hour, Mrs. Mary VINCK passed away at her
home at Cecil on Sunday at three o'clock, just four weeks after the death of
her husband, Frank VINCK.
Death was due to diabetes, following an illness covering a period of
several years. Mrs. VINCK was aged 62 years. On Saturday, Mrs. VINCK
declared to her friends that she would die at three o'clock, Sunday
afternoon. She did. The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon. Interment at
Venice. Several stepchildren survive.
*Compiler's note: VINCK is in my husband's family tree at this time and in
this area, but we have been unable to connect this person. If anyone else
is researching the name, please contact me. Thanks.

years old and was born in the house where he died. He was a very much
respected man and loved by young and old. He leaves one sister, Miss Nan. A
