Bell Island News. ... Digging Up 145 Year-Old Grave.
Bell Island
The 145-year old grave of the late William O'Dwyer is to be dug up and his bones interred in the Roman Catholic Cemetery here on Bell Island. The disinterment is to take place in early August, according to the calculations of Mr. Shen Parsons of the Highroads Department. Removal of the grave is necessitated because of the road widening of the Beach Hill. The old tombstone likely will be the one to stand over the new grave. On it is chiselled the following words: "Erected by Martin Dwyer, Great Belle Isle, in memory of his beloved brother, William O'Dwyer, a native of Strad Bally, County of Waterford, who departed this life the 18th day of December 1814."

Obituary. On Tuesday last the funeral obsequies of Alice Oliphant took place at Harbor Main. The deceased had been suffering for the past twelve months from some internal trouble, and though the best medical skill had been sought and tried, all efforts to win her back to health and vigor failed. A particularly sad circumstance in connection with the death of the deceased lady was the absence of her husband, Sergeant Oliphant, who was with her up to a few days previous, but, owing to the expiration of his leave of absence, was obliged to return to his station a sort time since. The deceased is a sister of the Rev. P. Strapp, C.B., St. Bonaventure's College. Her early demise, at the age of 31 years, has caused a widespread sorrow amongst many dear relatives and friends in her native town. - Com.

Obituary. The whole community of Harbor Grace as well as the entire diocese were deeply grieved, on Tuesday last, when the sad news was announced that Mrs. M.J. O'Neill had passed away, fortified by all the rites of Holy Church.
Mrs. O'Neill was a native of Northern Bay, Bay de Verde, and was a daughter of that highly respected business man, Mr. Simeon March, one of those enterprising merchants who battled with the great industries, the fisheries, for many years, both in prosperity and adversity - and always won in the end. Her mother was Mrs. Elizabeth Hogan, of Northern Bay, a member of one of the best known families in the Island. Mrs. O'Neill was a lady of high character and of a remarkably sweet disposition. Looking with kindly spirit upon all, loyal to her friends, and devoted to those nearest to her, she won the respect of all. We shall always remember her as one who was essentially pure in heart. In a very quiet way she accomplished much social service work, and many a poor family will bless her name and regret to learn of her passing. Very recently she visited St. John's to see her friends, and her demise was certainly unexpected. Her husband, M.J. O'Neill, predeceased her some years ago. He was a son of Capt. John O'Neill, one of those merchant-planters of the old school who did so much to place Newfoundland in the position it is to-day, among the greatest fishing countries in the world. He carried on an extensive fishing business on Labrador as well as the Shore Fishery at Bay-de-Verde; he was a thorough Irish gentleman.
For years Mrs. O'Neill presided over the household duties of the Palace, during the Episcopate of her brother, the beloved Bishop of the Diocese of Harbor Grace, Rt. Rev. Dr. March. No word of unkindness ever passed the lips of the deceased lady, charity and kindness animated her every act. The deeds of disinterested charity are recorded in the Book of Life. On the blessed day of recompense Our Blessed Saviour will say: "Come, ye blessed of my Father, possess the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world." What Shakespeare says of mercy pertains also to charity and kindness: "It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven, it is twice blessed; it blesseth him that gives and him that takes."
The funeral took place yesterday (Thursday) when after High Mass and office was celebrated, interment took place in the family plot in Bay de Verde. - Requiecat in pace.

Drowning Casualty at Long Pond.

Yesterday afternoon a sad mishap took place whereby a citizen of this town came to a sudden death at the head of Northern Long Pond. The deceased - Patrick O'Neill - left home in the morning for the woods in order to procure knees for a slide. Nothing is known of his doings up to about 4 o'clock in the afternoon. At that time a young man named Hunt, coming out of the woods saw a bundle of knees, a pair of cuffs and a cap on the ice at the head of the Pond to the westward of Anderson's brook. He immediately raised an alarm. After a short time, with the aid of a gaff or some such like appliance the body of the unfortunate man was recovered. It is thought he knelt down to get a drink and fell through, the hole which was not much larger than his body. The wood, &c., being on the ice strongly favors this view of the manner in which he came to his end. His body was brought out last night at 8 o'clock; put in the dead house, and later on was conveyed home. O'Neill had resided in this town for the past twenty-five years or so. He was an Irishman and was in the ranks, being one of the last soldiers stationed in this country. He was in the Crimean war, and often told of his life in the trenches before Sebastopol. Poor Paddy was well-known and liked here. He leaves a widow but no children.

Obituary. (H.F. Shortis) With the passing of Mr. Patrick O'Neill on Sunday morning last, not only did his family lose a loving and devoted husband, a kind and gentle father, but the community at large of Harbor Grace, where his friends are legion, lost a most highly respected citizen, and the Reid Newfoundland Company an old, faithful and trustworthy servant. His death was not unexpected for the fact that his strength was gradually failing was obvious to all who knew him, yet the news carried with it a thrill of grief that extended beyond his native place. His personal demeanor was modest, approachable and kindly - sincerely religious and animated by a spirit of service, as well as taking a keen and cheerful interest in the affairs of our country to the end despite his somewhat lengthy illness. Pat O'Neill was a type of manhood which has helped to make Newfoundland what it is, and whose clean and industrious life will be impressed upon generations to come. He was a general good companion, a staunch and loyal friend, a sincere and exemplary Catholic, generous to those who asked aid of him, industrious, of unconquerable integrity and in every way a thorough good citizen.
Patrick O'Neill was born in Harbor Grace well over eighty years ago descended from that sturdy and industrious old Kerry stock that did so much towards advancing agriculture in their adopted country. The Kerry people were noted for their longevity, and his mother attained the great age of 106 years. At a very early age Mr. O'Neill prosecuted the seal and Labrador fisheries with that famous old Viking, Capt. Patrick Kelly, in the brigantine Haidee, and for many years with Capt. John Scully in the brigantine Jane. He also made many voyages in our mercantile marine to foreign ports, and was on several trips with that famous Arctic navigator, Capt. Richard Pike, both in the S.S. Retriever, S.S. Proteus and other ships of sail and steam. He was with Capt. Pike in the Proteus in 1875, when that great seal-killer brought in over 41,000 seals, and a good second trip. Although prosecuting the fishery and sealing on foreign voyages, he combined agriculture with these means of livelihood, and the result can be seen to-day in the extensive farm and beautiful homestead possessed by his family, and comfortable and picturesque appearance of the scene, in which may be seen the cattle, pigs, poultry and all the utilities which go to make up a truly happy home. At the very commencement of the opening up of the Railway by Messrs. Reid and Middleton, Patrick O'Neill was recommended to the contractors by the late Sir Ambrose Shea as a truly honest, faithful and trustworthy man, to become, what I shall call a confidential servant. Quickly that keen judge of character, the late Sir Robert Reid recognized that he had found his man in the fisherman-sailor-farmer of the old school.
From that day, the beginning of railway operations to Hall's Bay, to the time of his death, Patrick O'Neill was looked upon more as a tried and trusted friend than as a servant, and nothing could exceed the confidence reposed in him and kindness extended towards him, than was given by Sir Robert Reid and his three sons, as well as by every man in the employ of the Reid Newfoundland Company. Some twelve years ago the faithful servant wished to return to his native town, and the moment he made his request it was readily granted by the Messrs. Reid; he was transferred to the Railway Sation at Harbor Grace and they took the deepest interest in their old friend up to the last. During his long service in the employ, he carried many thousands of letters and many hundreds of thousands of dollars, walking from one end of the line to the other at Port aux Basques, with the wages of the army of operatives along the railway; yet never had it been known that one cent was lost, much less a letter. All the Messrs. Reid would say was, "Is it all right, Pat"? - and receiving the reply in the affirmative, that ended the matter. Such was the confidence the Messrs. Reid and their officials placed in the word of good, honest, faithful Patrick O'Neill.
His funeral took place yesterday and his mortal remains now rest in peace in the family plot in the Roman Catholic Cemetery at Harbor Grace. - R.I.P.

O'NEILL, Philomena
Daily News    October 3, 1918 (Thursday)

On Saturday forenoon, after celebration of Mass for the repose of her soul, the remains of Philomena O'Neill, a victim of the Mount Moriah train wreck, were laid away in the cemetery on the hill side. Mass, which was attended by the greater part of the residents of this place, and by many from neighbouring settlements, was celebrated by Rev. W.P. Finn, P.P., at 9.30 a.m. Many wreaths from friends of the family and acquaintances and companions of the deceased, were laid on the casket, which was as beautiful as could be obtained in the city, being supplied by the Reid-Nfld Co.
In the untimely death of Miss O'Neill, Holyrood lost one of its most amiable and popular young ladies. Born at Holyrood 23 years ago, the daughter of Philip and Mary O'Neill, she was educated at High School, under Master Dwyer, graduating at the age of 16 with splendid record of efficiency in all branches, and having passed intermediate exam, obtaining diploma before the age of 17. She taught school at Fr. Kavanagh's parishes of Whitbourne and Gambo for four years. The pupils she taught in these schools had Requiem Mass said for the repose of her soul on Wednesday last. During her period of teaching she showed excellent results, and was beloved by her pupils and deservedly popular and respected by the residents amongst whom she resided. She resigned during mid-summer holidays, and decided to join her sister in Boston. It was on that journey she met her death, being instantly killed when the express went off the track at Mount Moriah on Sept. 24th last. The sad news of her tragic death was broken to the bereaved parents by Rev. Fr. Finn on the night of the accident, and the shock was severe, prostrating her mother and sisters who barely twenty-four hours previously parted with her in health and happiness, little dreaming of the sad fate so soon to overtake her and snatch her from them. The many friends and companions who assembled at the station to bid her good bye on the day of her departure was an index of her amiable and loving disposition, which endeared her to all her associates. That the people of the settlement shared fully in the sorrow of her relatives and grieved with them in their loss was demonstrated by the large concourse of people that assembled at the station to meet the corpse, which reached here after midnight Friday. Notwithstanding the late hour, hundreds waited to pay their respect at the bier of their departed friend and late companion.
Father, mother, five sisters, one, May, teacher at Central High School, Mrs. J.A. Veitch, two others at home and one in Boston, also one brother with the Canadian forces en route to England, are left to mourn. The sincere sympathy of all who know the hospitable and generous family of Phil O'Neill and his kindly wife will go out to them in their hour of grief for the loss of their beloved child under such tragic circumstances. Requiscat in pace. Amicus, Holyrood, Sept. 30, 1918.

Newbridge, Salmonier, Nov. 23 - In the grey early hours of November 17th, at Newbridge, Salmonier, the Angel of Death overshadowed the home of Michael O'Rourke, folding in his embrace Clyde, the eldest son of the family. The almost sudden passing of this youthful life drew forth more than ordinary sympathy, but the "Gods love those who die young," and Clyde had but entered his twentieth year. He took a man's part aboard his father's schooner during the past summer, and it was while en route to St. John's that he complained of not feeling well. On arrival there he visited Dr. Keegan for advice, who ordered him a bed in the General Hospital, where he was given most careful treatment, and kindness by doctors and nurses. His spiritual needs were attended to by Rev. Fr. Gibbs, who fortified him with the strengthening consolation of Holy Church. But withal, his condition became worse and recovery hopeless, the fiat had gone forth, and upon his removal to home, he peacefully passed through the earthly portals to await "till the shadows retire."
The funeral which was largely attended, took place on the 19th, the members of the Holy Name Society in which the deceased was a juvenile member, acted as a guard of honour. Requiem High Mass was celebrated by Rev. Fr. Enright, P.P., for the repose of his soul and after the last obsequies were recited, his mortal remains were consigned to mother-earth, in the family plot, near St. Joseph's Church. Besides his grieved parents, the deceased leaves to mourn him a brother, Bernard, and two sisters Sadie and Patricia at home. To these the community evidenced heartfelt sympathy, in the many affectionate expressions, and floral tributes offered them, and showed the great esteem in which the deceased was held. Clyde was a special favorite with his companions to whom he was an example of all that was good and true. May his soul rest in peace. COM
