MATTHEW TANNAHILL DEAD.
At 11:40 o’clock last night Mr. Tannahill breathed his last at the residence of Mrs. L.A. Burritt, at the corner of Aurora and Seneca streets.
Broken down by overwork, incident to twenty-three years of slavish toil in the New York postoffice, Mr. Tannahill was forced to succumb and retire from his clerkship five months ago.
For the last two months he has been under treatment at a Rochester, N.Y. hospital. Two weeks ago he was conveyed to this city but, at his request, knowledge of his presence here was confined to relatives.
Some ten days ago he experienced a stroke of paralysis which seemed a culmination of his original malady, - Bright’s disease. During his entire illness, his sister, Mrs. Macumber, has been his constant attendant.
Mr. Tannahill was born in New York city but came to Ithaca when very young. He grew up here and was long connected with the paper mill and pottery industries of Fall Creek. He was sixty-five years old and universally esteemed for his exemplary life and honorable methods.
He leaves him surviving, a brother, in California; and four sisters, Mrs. Margaret Bushnell of Norwich, Ct., Mrs. Agnes Thatcher, Newfield, N.Y., Mrs. Lyman Clock of Binghamton, N.Y., and Mrs. Sarah Macumber, of Ithaca, N.Y.
Notice of funeral services will be found in its regular place.
