W.T. KENNEDY DEAD
W.T. Kennedy died Tuesday morning at the home of his son, Mayor Kennedy, No. 514 West Hull street.
Mr. Kennedy was sick about 3 weeks, but he had such a wonderful constitution it was hoped he might tide over his illness.  He was a fine specimen of physical manhood.  Although 74 years of age, he was as lively on his feet as most persons at 50.  For many years he had been an enthusiastic lover of field sports and even at his advanced years could hold his own with the best of shots.  He was open, free hearted and without guile, and belonged to the old regime of gentlemen that are fast passing away.
