Hi,

 

We have a patron who has asked for an obituary of a person who died in
Philadelphia

in 1913.

 

Unfortunately we don't have access to an Obituary or old Philadelphia
Newspaper

Database.

 

If it is possible can someone get us a copy of this obit thru a online
database and

email or fax us a copy?  I know my patron would be very grateful as will I.

 

The deceased -

 

  Francis "Red" Donahue  or   Frank "Red" Donahue

  Died August 26th, 1913

 

Mr. Donahue was a well known baseball player for the Philadelphia Phillies.
He

was born in Waterbury Connecticut and after retiring opened a Saloon in 

Philadelphia.

 

There may be a large article written about his death in the Philadelphia
paper.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Our email address:  johnw at biblio.org

 

Our fax #   203-723-1820

 

Thank You!!!!!

 

John Wiehn
