Another Howard County Pioneer Gone.
Anthony Granahan, one of the sturdy pioneers of this county, has gone to his reward, dying at his home, near Chester, Iowa, on Thursday, October the 21st, at the advanced age of 84 years.
Mr. Granahan was born in Ireland, but emigrated to Canada when quite young. In early manhood he came to Howard county and settled on a farm near Lourdes, where he spent many years as a respected and honored citizen of that community. Some years ago he moved to his late home near Chester, where he spent his declining years.

Transcriber’s Note: Find a Grave shows he is buried in Calvary Cemetery in Riceville.
