Saturday, 21 May 1898

        TIMOTHY GARVEY, one of the old guard of Falls
      residents, died at the Northampton asylum yester-
      day after a long period of failing health. He was
      taken to the asylum May 1, 1895, and had been
      there continuously since. MR. GARVEY was a native
      of County Kerry, Ireland, and came to the Falls
      the fall after the famous Glasgow mills fire, back
      in 1819. Curiously enough his first job in this
      country was on the brick work of the Northampton
      Insane Asylum where he has just died. MR. GARVEY
      was married when a very young man, and had nine
      children. MRS. GARVEY died in 1890, and singular-
      ly enough not one of his nine children survives
      and only one grandchild. One son was drowned most
      tragically while working on the dam in 1884. The
      body will be brought to the Falls for burial. The
      funeral will occur from St. Patrick's church Sun-
      day afternoon at 2:30.
      
      [Transcriber note: his death record says he was 83
                         years of age and his residence
                         was at South Hadley.]
