  Notes	James J. Haggerty, aged 57 years, died at his home in Honeybrook last night of pneumonia. He leaves a wife and eight children. Mr. Haggerty was well known in the Lehigh region, says the Hazleton Plain-Speaker, coming here about 35 years ago from Schuylkill County, where he taught school in his younger days. He first located in Honeybrook and from there moved to Ebervale in 1863. When the Workingmen’s Benevolent Association started in the coal regions in 1869, Mr. Haggerty became identified with the organization and was soon one of its prominent leaders. At the time that the organization started the co-operative store in Hazleton, he was made superintendent and conducted it until the stockholders agreed to close up business. He then went back to the mines but was very unfortunate, meeting with several accidents and finally lost his leg. He has been a resident of Honeybrook for many years and was held in much respect by his friends and neighbors. He will be buried in the Frenchtown Cemetery on Saturday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock.
