B. F. Bowen, senior, died at the residence of his son B. F. Bowen, junior, about midnight last Thursday. The deceased was about 67 years of age, and has been in ill health for some time. He came out from his home in Iowa, a few months since, for the betterment of his health; but it was not to be so. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. J. W. Hickey of St. Patrick's Catholic church at 10 o'clock on Sunday morning, interment following in the parish cemetery, by his request. The deceased leaves an aged and invalid wife in Iowa, who on account of her infirmities and age was unable to attend the funeral of her life companion. Besides there are two children living in our city, Mrs. Steve Dwyer and B. F. Bowen, junior. They have much sympathy in their bereavement.
