    Notes:

    Why was this young man held in such great
    esteem? Obituary for Edward Joseph O'Brien
    (1886 -1910) Oh, death, with your icy hand
    and fatal grasp, Your unflinching summons has
    come at last; You have bade him follow by your
    stern command, To far brighter realms in that
    heavenly land.
    At Topsail on Thursday, 19 inst. all that was mortal of Edward Joseph O'Brien
    was conveyed to the R.C. churchyard for interment. His funeral was largely
    attended by mourners of every denomination, t o show their love and respect
    for the youthful miner who received his death summons while working in the
    submarine mines on bell Island. At 2:30 the S.S. Euphrates arrived with
    Manager McLean, and al l the foremen of the Nova Scotia Steel and Coal
    Co. to take a last farewell of one who through his kind and generous ways,
    had won the esteem of his fellow workmen and forced an entrance to the
    roughe st ear. While working in the mines he contracted a heavy cold which
    developed into pneumonia. He was attended by Dr's. Carnochan, Chaplin
    and Chisholm, who did all available for him, but despite the ir utmost skill he
    passed peacefully away on Tuesday, 17th inst. in the prime of life at the age
    of twenty four. RIP
    Thou son of faith, your form is chilled, Your gentle heart-beat forever
    stilled; How soon to fill a silent grave, A prayer from the faithful is all I crave.
