Death of Con Sullivan.
(Jon Sullivan, who tor many
years was a resident of Corvallis,
died at his home in Albany "Sat
urday morning. The following
biography is taken from the Al
bany Herald.
Cornelius Sullivan, one of the
best known men in Albany, super
intendent of the Corvallis & East
ern railroad and known as one of
the best railroad men . in his , line
in the Pacific northwest, died sud
denly at about 3 o'clock Saturday
morning of heart trouble after an
illness of but a ; few hours. De
ceased had been ailing somewhat
for the past year, but recently he
was'much improved and attended
to the duties of his position regu
larly. On Friday he was on the
east end of the line, returning in
the evening. . Later he was at
the station and walked , down
town apparently in his usual
health, and he remarked that he
felt well. He retired early, but
during the night complained ot
pain, and his , stepson, Charles
Fox, waited on him and brought
remedies asked for. After that
he fell asleep, but during the
early morning hours a noise from
his room brought Mrs. Sullivan
to his side when he was found
lying over the foot of the bed in a
dying condition. Dr. W. H.
Davis was hastily called, but was
unable to do anything for Mr.
Sullivan who breathed his last
about the time the physician ar
rived. Mrs. Sullivan's sons, Clyde
Fox, station agent at Yaquina,
and Louis Fox agent at Toledo,
arrived on the non train yester
day, and Mr. Sullivan's nephew,.
Harry Trinwith, a railroad official
of Eureka, is expected to reach
here on Tuesday afternoon. De
ceased leaves a widow and small
son, three step-sons and one
step-daughter to mourn his sad
and untimely death.
Mr. Sullivan was a native of
Ireland and came to the United
States when but a youth about
36 years ago. He early began
railroading, working on several
roads in : Iowa. Later he came
to the coast, rising rapidly in rail
road work, and in 1889 he came
to this V alley and became
foreman of a : work train on ; the
Oregon Pacific, now the C. & E.,
when that liner was built to Al
bany.; He, soon became road
master, and in 1894, when Ed
win Stone became manager of the
BEGINS
road, Mr. Sullivan was. appoint
ed superintendent, which position
he filled from that time until his
death. - He was noted as one of
the best railroad builders in the
west, very popular with his sub
ordinates and the general public,
a good citizen and husband. Mr.
Sullivan leaves a . large' estate in
this citv and countv and consid
erable properly in; other counties
in the state; Among his posses
sions are the Albany street car
line and the telephone line be
tween Yaquina and Newport, the
first line built in Lincoln county.
Mr. Sullivan was a Mason . a
Knight Templar and an Elk.

held Wednesday afternoon at
2 o'clock, one of the orders hav-
1 ' ' 1 i - - ni
ing cnarge ana interment win

Angel. ' , .
The railroad men about the C.
& E. station and offices were
shocked when they heard of the
superintendent's death yesterday
and they mourned him as one
near and dear to them, all of
them expressing their deep
sense of loss.- The engines were
dressed in mournine: and -the
coaches of the bay train onarriv
al here at noon were found to
be decorated with long stream
ers of black crepe, the crew hav
ing secured the material and
placed it on the crs at Corval
