On Nov. 15, 1898, he was married to Miss Laura Alice Black and she preceded him in death on July 24, 1922. For many years Mr. Hanley was employed as a marine engineer on various boats on the Mississippi. His ill health forced his retirement 25 years ago.

The body was taken to the Alan Clapp mortuary, where funeral services will be held at 2 p.m. Sunday. Burial will be in Oakdale cemetery.
