12 Jan., 1905 - Blair Republican - Cornelius Callahan

World Herald - Blair, NEB., Jan. 11.

The remains of the late Cornelius Callahan arrived in Blair yesterday from Omaha. As Mr. Callahan had lived here the best part of his life and was very well and favorable known, the news of his death, though coming after a long life, caused much sorrow. Long before the time for the train to arrive, the depot was thronged with friends who had come a long distance to pay their respects to the remains of one whom they loved in life. Father O’Driscoll of this city met the remains at the depot and conducted the service at the grave.
