KENNEDY - William W. - Chicago Pioneer is found dead. - Expires Suddenly in his room at McEwen's Hotel of Heart Disease - Came to the City 52 Years ago - Handled Force During Great Fire of 1871 as Head of Department - Employed in Postoffice mailing division.--
William W. Kennedy, Chief of Police of Chicago during the great fire and a pioneer resident of the city, was found dead in his room in McEwen's Hotel, 91 W. Madison St., at 7 o'clock last night. He had lived there for 18 years. Mr. Kennedy became Chief of Police under Mayor Mason and retired from that office and from the police service soon after the election Joseph Medill.
William Wallace Kennedy came to Chicago in 1847. He was born in 1830 on the Tombigbee River, in Alabama. At that period his father conducted a country store at a cross roads. Early in the year 1847 his father disposed of all his property and taking his family, started overland in a wagon for the North, reaching Chicago in June. Soon after coming to Chicago he and his brother George engaged in the hardware business, opening a store at Lake and Wells street, as it was called then.
Disposing of his hardware business, he joined the city police force in 1860, and in 1868 was a Captain in command of the West Side station. On the election of Mayor Mason, in 1869 he was made Chief of Police. During Kennedy's term of office he had the distinction of acting as Mayor, Controller, and Chief of Police at the same time. This was in the fall of 1869 when the other officials were away on their vacations. His administration of the affairs of the police department at the time of the great fire was an eventful one, and he is remembered by all of the old time members of the Police and Fire departments, as well as veteran members of other branches of the city service.
After leaving the police service Mr. Kennedy practically disappeared form public view. In 1880 he was appointed to a position in the mailing division of hte Chicago postoffice, and retained that position until the time of his death. He was last seen alive on Wednesday evening. He had been ill and compelled to remain away from his work. As he did not leave his room yesterday the hotel proprietor and his friends became solicitous for his welfare, and forcing the door of his room found the old man partly dressed dead upon the bed. He had been dead eight or ten hours, the evident cause of death being heart disease.
Mr. Kennedy was never married, and the nearest surviving relative is a sister, Mrs. W.H. Palmer, residing in New York City. The interment will be tomorrow at Rosehill from Gavin's undertaking rooms, Center avenue and Van Buren streets. He was a member of the Hysperia Lodge, A.F. and A.M. and of the Postoffice Employees' Benevolent society.
"During the last few years I have heard little of Kennedy," Chief of Police Kipley said last night. "His time on the police force was just before I joined the department, but I knew of him by reputation. I knew that he resided on the West Side, but he appeared to be of a reticent disposition and we seldom heard of him. There are few men connected with the Police department now who will remember Kennedy." [Chicago Tribune, 21 Sept 1900, submitted by source #74 (transcribed by K. Torp]

Shortly after he went into the foundry business at Kenosha, Wis. where he lived from 1856 to 1860. In the latter year he established a similar business at Kingsbury and Michigan streets. The last twenty years of his life were spent in the life insurance business.

LOMBARD, Benjamin --- The Chicago papers of Saturday chronicled the death of Mr. Benjamin Lombard in that city, which took place last Friday morning at 188 Eugenie street. Mr. Lombard had been ailing for some time, but the immediate cause of his death was paralysis of the brain. He was a native of Truro, Mass., born in 1815. While yet a lad, of an adventuresome disposition, he came westward to Pike county, engaged in merchandising and pork packing. Selling out his interest there in 1840 or '42 he came to Henry, where he embarked in the real estate business, and with such business sagacity and success, that he soon was numbered among the wealthiest of the land owners here. He owned land in all parts of the county, dealt extensively in land patents and tax titles, and transacted a very large business. He took a lively interest in the organization of Henry into a township and a city, and was one of its leading influential men, though would never accept a public office. The C.R.I.&P.R.R. depot was built on land donated by him to the railroad company, and two additions to the city bear his name. The leading hotel here also bore his name, and flourished grandly until a fire destroyed it, but was not rebuilt. The Durham mansion and grounds, one mile west of the city, were formerly known as the Lombard place, being the finest country seat at the time (1850) in this part of the state.

Afterwards he moved to Chicago, where he engaged in real estate speculations, and become very wealthy. In the days of his prosperity he devoted land and money to found a Universalist College at Galesburg, and it was named Lombard University in honor of its founder. In 1859 he became president of the Union Insurance and Trust Co., which had an office in his own building, the Lombard block on Monroe street. In February, 1864, Mr. Lombard helped to organize the Fourth national bank, and was elected its first president. In 1870 he was president of the Real Estate, Loan & Trust Co., afterwards the Franklin bank. The fire of 1874 was a severe blow to Mr. Lombard, sweeping away the accumulations of years, and he never afterwards recovered a tithe of what he lost. He speculated again, however, and was connected with the national Life Insurance Co., as president and manager until its failure - the assets at the time of its wind-up being almost nil. Some years later Mr. Lombard went to Texas for his health, being completely broken down. He returned from Texas and loved for awhile at Shenandoah. The at Galesburg, where he took charge of a hotel. Six months ago he returned to Chicago in broken health, settling his house in order, and finally yielding up his life at the home of one of his children. Mr. Lombard was married the third time, and his last wife and six children - four sons and two daughters survive him. One of the sons is a cadet midshipman in the navy. The remains were taken to Boston, Mass., for interment. [Taken From the Henry Republican, May 25, 1882, Submitted by Src #25]

LONERGAN, John --- one of the pioneers of Chicago, who was identified with several of the earliest improvements of the West, died last week, at the home of his son-in-law, Joseph HOGAN, 519 West Monroe St., Chicago. His death, while directly attributed to a light stroke of paralysis sustained recently, came as the result of a long and active life reaching beyond the years usually allotted to man. Deceased was a native of County Tipperary, Ireland, and was born April 1st, 1807. At the age of 16 he came to this country with his parents. A brief stay was made in N. Y. city, and the family then moved to Pittsburg, and Mr. LONERGAN, with three of his brothers, engaged as contractors in the construction of the Erie Canal. They were among the most successful of the contractors thus engaged, and upon the completion of their work they turned their attention to railroad building, a business in its infancy. Extensive contracts were secured by them on the first railroad extending west of the Alleghany Mountains, a branch of the Pennsylvania system, and in connection with this they constructed the Grant Street tunnel in Pittsburg.
In 1838, he married Miss Agnes MURPHY, in Pittsburg, and then came to Chicago, at that period the state had in contemplation the Ill. and Mich. Canal, and Mr. LONERGAN was one of the first to file a bid for it construction. He was awarded two sections of the work between Lemont and Lockport, but before he completed his work the state abandoned the improvement for lack of funds. In 1847 he moved to Batavia (Kane County, IL), where he engaged in farming, and after a residence of 27 years here he returned to Chicago. His wife died in 1886. [Batavia Herald, 29 March, 1894]

LONG -- Sudden Death of William LONG. Died on a Street Car.

LONG had been downtown on some business, and was returning to his home on a Wentworth Ave. car. All the seats were taken and he was forced to stand. At Twenty-second street he was seen to stagger, and Conductor Alheim ran into the car and caught him before he fell to the floor. He dragged LONG out on the platform, where he almost immediately expired. Heart failure is attributed as the cause. He was buried at Yorkville (Kendall County, IL). [Batavia Herald, 26 March 1896]
