Funeral of Mr J C O’Brien. The community gathers to bid farewell to Mr J C O’Brien, who recently passed away. The procession from St Michael’s Church to Mount St Lawrence Cemetery is a solemn tribute. A respected Limerick family mourns the loss of the second eldest son of Mr J C O’Brien. Despite his failing health in recent years, his young and promising life’s end is a painful shock to his afflicted relatives. Clergymen Rev J M Cregan, Rev J Lee, Rev J A O’Coonor, and Rev Father Nolan are present, joined by mourners like Mr Joseph O’Brien, Mr P C Keane, and Mr Mathew McNamara. A representative attendance of the public honours him, and the final rites are led by Rev Father Cregan.
