the family residence. 413 Cedar avenue,

the pastor, Kev. William A. Nor.lt.

shown the memory of the deceased was

Sketch of Ills Life.
Rev. Oeral.l F. McMurray, pastor of
St. Mary's Catholic church, Dunmore,
died Saturday morning; a'few minutes
before f o'clock, and" the end .was so un
expected that whqh the news. Hashed
through the borough later in .the day,
the people would Scarcely credit'it. For
two or three months Kev. Father Me
Murray h- been in .very gooi
REV. GERALD
health; he suffered much from rheuma
tism, but was able to attend to his
pastoral duties, and was present at the
consecration of lit. Ilev. IJIshop Hoban
one week ago yesterday.
On thut morning he caught cold while
walking In the procession of priests
from College ball to the cathedral, and
congestion of the lungs attacked him a
few days later. Thursday wus the first
his condition berume serious. Then he
had hemorrhage from the lungs. It
weakened him so that he lost strength
Very rapidly, and when a second hem
orrhage ( nine on Friday evening, Kev,
M. I!. Doiilan. his assistant, prepared
him for death and administered the last
sacraments of the church. Rev. P. J.
McManus, of Green Ridge, was sent
for; and he, liev. Father Donlan and
Dr. J. R. Mtirnhy were the only ones
present until death.
The dead Priest was ,". years old,
having been born in 1S41 In Hamilton
Manor, I.eitrim county, Ireland. His
mother and one sister are living at the
old home in Ireland, and there are two
nephews. Dr. Gerald McMurrav nnd
John McMurray, of Philadelphia. At
an early uge he decided to prepare him
self for the priesthood, and his studies
were commenced at a college conducted
by the Marlst fathers in the city of
Cavnn. In 1SG.' he came to America and
entered the seminary of St. Charles of
llorromee. Philadelphia. Ills theologi
cal cours' was finished In 1S0S, in the
rami' year that the diocese of Seranton
was established. When he came tn this
country he was adopted by Archbishop
Wood, of Phlladelnhl'i.
IIISHOP'S FIliST SECRETARY.
When the Seranton diocese was
formed Rev. Father McMurray. Rev.
N. J. McManus. of Holy Rosary church.
Providence; Rev. Father o'lhlen, who
died at Dunmore In 1STL'. and Rev. Fa
thers O'Hara and Hennessy. both long
since departed, volunteered to come
with Rt. Rev. Hishoii O'Hara Into the
new diocese. They were ordained on
Sunday,-Dec. 27. JSCS, in SI. Peter's ca
thedral. 'The '''deceased became the
bishop's first, secretary und was rector
or the cathedral for one year, when he
was appointed pastor of P.lossburg,
Tioga county. At the end of three years
upon the death of Rev. Father O'lirien,
he was transferred from Hlossburg and
made pastor of Dunmore parish, which
then extended to the Delaware Wnter
Gap. The parish was fifty-eight milis
long and there were mission stntlons at
Moscow, 1 on 1.1 shorn, Tobyhanna,
Stroudsburg and the Wnter Gap. With
out an assistant he attended to the
spiritual wants of this extensive area
for several years until they were formed
Into parishes. '
Meanwhile he was hard at work pre
paring for the erection of a church in
Dunmore. So earnestly did ho labor
that In June. 1874. the cornerstone of
the present church was laid, nnd a few
years later the edifice was reared and
iifidy to worship in. Tho material of
which It Is built brick, with stone
trimmings. Seven years ago he built
.1 splendid parochial residence, and a
few years later he purchased a large
plot of ground for a new cemetery. At
his death the parish of Dunmore stands
nmong the foremost In the large and
nourishing diocese of Seranton.
A FRIEND TO TIIE POOR.
His character was plain, kind and
gentle, and the poor of his parish, irre
spective of race or creed, found him a
sincere friend. His charity was always
cloaked and his many deeds of assist
ance were not made nubile. The resi
dents of Duiiniore of nil creeds had the
greatest respect for him and he exer
cised on Inlluenee that only his noble
ness of character could command.
He was not disposed to mingle much
with the world, nnd spent his time
principally In his library. His learn
ing was comprehensive, and he was re
sarded ns n classical scholar of the
llrst rank among the priests of this
diocese. Attention' to his church nnd
his people was his leading characteris
tic, and how well he attained his pur
pose in this respect is exemplified In
the unfeigned sorrow that is felt at his
death.
Rt. Rev. rtishop O'Hara held him
most dear as an obedient, willing and
energetic toller In the Master's vine
yard, nnd he chose the deceased as one
of the diocesan cnnsultors. The pas
torate of the deceased represents a
church built nt u cost of $70,000, a pa
rochial residence which cost $15, 000 and
a cemetery purchased at a cost of sev
eral thousand dollars.
The wish of the deceased was that he
should be buried beside Rev. Father
O'lirien, the lirst pastor of the church,
in a plot In the old cemetery. The fu
neral will be held tomorrow morning nt
! o'clock with a solemn, high mass of
rctiulem. The remains will be removed
from the parochial residence this even
ing to the church, where they will lie
In state until they will be removed for
burial.
