Elijah O'Harra, aged 74, passed away suddenly at his home, 419 West Fifth Street, at about 10:45 p.m. Wednesday, with death resulting from leakage of the heart.
Although he had been failing in health for several months past, he was able to be about and to attend to his duties until late Wednesday, when he was stricken with a heart attack which caused his death about a half hour later.
Mr. O'Harra had been a resident of Grand Island for about nine years, being employed here as an express and dray man. Previous to his residence here, he was for many years engaged in business in Lexington, Nebr., where the family is particularly well and favorably known.
Surviving him, besides the bereaved widow, are two sons, one residing in New York City, and one in Gering, Nebr. Definite arrangements for the funeral have not yet been made, pending word from the son who resides in the east.
