[obituary of 2 brothers]

Heavy Bereavement.
Mr. James Kelly, of Huntley, died on Saturday morning last, aged 70 years, from an attack of inflammation of the lungs [Pneumonia]. He was a bachelor, and had lived for some time with Mr. P. Carter. The funeral took place on Monday forenoon, to St. Michael's church and cemetery, and was largely attended. On Sunday evening, while James was lying in his coffin, his brother, Mr. Patrick Kelly, a well-known resident of Huntley, and an old settler, well esteemed by his intimate friends, died from the same trouble - inflammation of the lungs. He was 66 years of age. His funeral took place on Tuesday at 2 p.m., to St. Michael's church and cemetery, and there was a large turnout to pay the final tribute of respect. Three weeks ago or so Patrick Kelly's son, Thomas, was killed in a shanty up north, and another son [William], ill for some time with a lung trouble [Tuberculosis], is not expected to live for many days. These repeated trials are evoking the heartfelt sympathy of the community.

Patrick married Mary Reynolds in 1857. Mary was born in 1833 in County Meath, Ireland; died on 8 Mar 1916 in Huntley Township, Carleton County, Ontario, Canada; was buried on 10 Mar 1916 in St. Michael's Roman Catholic Cemetery, Corkery, Ottawa Municipality, Ontario, Canada.

?b?Obit.-Mrs. P. Kelly.?/b?
On Wednesday, March 8th, at her home in Huntley township, Mary Reynolds, wife of the late Patrick Kelly, passed to her eternal reward after a long and very useful life. The late Mrs. Kelly was born in County Meath, Ireland, eighty-three years ago. When very young she came to the United States with her parents and settled at Rome, N.Y. Here she met her husband, Patrick Kelly, and they were married in 1857. Three years later she moved with her husband to Huntley township where they settled on a farm, which she continued to occupy for the remainder of her long life. To them was born a large family, fourteen children, of whom seven are still living. Two of her sons were killed in timber work in the woods. The surviving members of the family are: Mrs. James Dunlop, Duluth, Minn.; Edward of Montreal; Patrick and James at home; Mrs. Kearney of Minnesota; Dennis of Superior, Wisconsin, and Lizzie at home. Mrs. Kelly was very highly esteemed by all who knew her. Her kindness and good sense made her a valuable friend to every one in her large circle of acquaintances. She devoted her life to the welfare of her family as a true Christian mother. She was rewarded by a remarkable degree of filial devotion on the part of her sons and daughters. In religion, she was a consistent and practical Catholic, a member of St. Michael's church, Corkery. The neighbors and friends turned out in large numbers to the funeral, which was held on the 10th inst. They showed their appreciation of Mrs. Kelly by doing so, as the roads were almost impassable. The funeral was held at St. Michael's church, Corkery, where High Mass was celebrated by Father Stanton, parish priest. The body was then interred in the family plot in St. Michael's cemetery beside her husband, who predeceased her some years ago. The pallbearers were: Messrs. Chas. Brydges, Dennis Galvin, Ed. Kennedy, Thos. Kennedy, Thos. Kelly and Rich. Kelly.
