DEATH CLAIMS ROBERT QUIRK

 

Former Citizen and Mayor Died of Injuries Received in Chicago Rail Accident.

 

Friends and relatives here were greatly depressed Monday night [22 Sep 1913] when the news reached Cascade that Robert Quirk, of Waterloo, former well-known citizen and ex-mayor of this city, was badly if not fatally injured by falling beneath the wheels of a Chicago Great Western cattle train at 40th street and Laurel avenue in Chicago.

 

Last night [24 Sep 1913] the sad news reached Cascade that Mr. Quirk succumbed to the injuries and passed away during Wednesday [24 Sep 1913] at 12:30 p.m.  From the meager information that has reached here it is gleaned that Mr. Quirk's left leg was severed midway between the ankle and knee and that he was injured internally.  In a letter to S. T. Kean of this city J. J. Farrelly the well known commission man, briefly recounted what information he had of the accident, and assisted in having the injured man removed to the Engelwood hospital.  Amputation of the leg higher up was found necessary.

 

Mrs. Quirk of Waterloo and son William hurried to the bedside of the injured husband and father.  On Tuesday [23 Sep 1913] daughters of Mr. Quirk informed their cousin Henry Seery that good reports of their father's condition were received from Chicago and there was a feeling that Mr. Quirk would recover from the shock but unfortunately the improvement was only temporary.  The accident was too severe in nature for Mr. Quirk's age.

 

Mr. Quirk came to Cascade from Delaware county about twenty-five years ago [abt 1888] and engaged in stock buying, first alone, but later formed a co-partnership under the name of Kean Bros. & Quirk, buyers who were known far and wide among stock raisers and feeders.  During his residence he was numbered among the strong and valuable citizens.  He served on the city council, and in March, 1899, was elected mayor of Cascade.  A year or so later [abt 1900] he removed his family to Dubuque and continued his stock buying business, and built a handsome residence on Alta Vista Street.  Five or six years ago [1907/1908] he sold his residence at Dubuque and removed to Waterloo, where he still continued live stock buying and which line he followed up to the time the fatal accident occurred.

 

Mr. Quirk was married 37 years ago [26 Jan 1876] when still a resident of Delaware county, to Miss Mary Seery, daughter of the late John Seery of Washington township, Jones county, who with three children survive, him:  Miss Etta, William and Marcella.  He is also survived by his brother Rev. Father Quirk, of Clinton, and three sisters.

 

Mr. Quirk was a graduate of the Monticello [Jones County] high school, and in his younger days taught in the public schools of Delaware and Jones counties.  He was a man of forcible character, genial spirit, and ruggedly honest.  His death, and especially the untimely manner of it, is sincerely and deeply mourned here in his old home and wherever he was known.

 

The funeral will be held at St. Patrick's church in Dubuque tomorrow (Friday) morning [26 Sep 1913], and burial in Mt. Olivet cemetery.

Editor's Note:  It was a well known fact in the Casey family that Mary Quirk Casey was nearly eleven years older that her husband 'Gus'.  He was born in 1864.  1853 is Mary's correct birth date.

 

Despite the kind efforts of family to immortalize Mary's birth date as 1856 on her grave marker, 1853 is still probably the correct date.

 Mary married28 Patrick Augustus Casey "Gus"1, son of Patrick Casey and Bridget M. McManus, on 23 Sep 1884 in Greene County, Iowa.

Notes -

 

1.  Ref. death date of Patrick Augustus Casey as cited by his death notice, Mason City Globe Gazette, Jan 1942:

 Augustus Casey, 77, died at a local hospital about 10 o'clock Wednesday night, following a brief illness.  He had been a resident of Mason City for the past 58 years.

 

Mr. Casey was born Feb. 28, 1864 at Earlville, Ill.  He was married to Miss Mary G. Quirk in September, 1885, at Sand Springs, Iowa.  For 47 years he was roundhouse foremen for the Milwaukee road, having retired in 1932.

 

Surviving Mr. Casey is a son, Harold Casey, Mason City, and seven grandchildren.  He was preceded in death by his wife, Mary G. Casey, Jan. 20, 1935, by two daughters in infancy and one son, Frank Casey.

 

The body will be taken from the Meyer funeral home to the Casey residence, 729 North Federal avenue, Friday forenoon and will lie in state there until the time of the services.  The Rosary will be said there Friday evening at 8 o'clock.

 

Funeral services will be held at the Holy Family Catholic church at 9:30 o'clock Saturday morning, with Father R. P. Murphy in charge.  Burial will be at St. Joseph's Catholic cemetery.

 

Editor's Note:  As in the case of efforts of family members to minimize the age difference between Gus and Mary Casey by showing 1856 as her birth date, 1860 is also not Gus' birth date.  1864 is the correct year.  His obituary notes that he was 77 on 7 Jan 1942 which would put his birth year correctly as 1864.  In correcting Mary's birth date to 1853 and Gus' to 1864 the difference is eleven years, known to have been true by immediate family members, if not siblings living at the time.
