J.J. Liddy, a brother of Mr. Dennis Liddy of Monticello, recently died at Littleport, Iowa. He was born in Ireland in 1851, and came to America with his parents at the age of four years. The Clayton County Democrat says that he was educated at St. Joseph's college, Dubuque, and followed the profession of a teacher until he went into the mercantile business. He was postmaster at Littleport during both terms of Cleveland's administration.
