Mr. Thomas Connor, who has been a successful and respected citizen of Evanston for the last thirty years, died at 9:30 last evening at his residence on Oak avenue. He was a native of County Wexford, Ireland, and at the time of his death was 84 years old. He had always enjoyed remarkably good health and death was chiefly caused by his advanced age. The funeral will take place at St. Mary's Church at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon and thence to Calvary. Mr. Connor, who was the uncle of James C. and Thomas E. Connor, had no children living, but left a twin sister with whom he had lived for many years, and many warm friends who will deeply mourn his loss.
