Press Printing and Publishing, 1890

“A glance at the families who constituted the Catholic church in the times of Father O’DONOGHUE and his predecessors, a glance through the memories of some of the old Catholics of the of the present day at the Catholic church of Paterson in 1830 and thereabouts, will undoubtedly be of interest to a great many.

“The following list is not complete, but it is a complete as it could be made from the materials at hand, the scanty records and the recollections of old citizens, more or less identified with the progress of the church work in this city:”
Charles A Shriner, “A History of the Catholic Church in Paterson, N.J.

Many a time was his horse used for funerals. The Methodists had a hearse which the Catholics were in the habit of borrowing. On the death of a poor person, Kelly would put wagon harness on his horse and go to the Methodist church and hire the hearse, for which he paid fifty cents. If this stipend was subsequently not returned to Mr. Kelly, he never mentioned it. One day, Mr. Kelly had a funeral on hand. His horse was sick and could not be taken out of the stall. I was carting sand from the sandbank now known as Colt’s Hill; in those days it extended to where the curb of Main Street now is. Kelly came to me and I gave him use of my horse. I put the wagon harness on my animal and got the hearse. This was a great relief to Mr. Kelly, but it was the first and last time that I ever officiated as undertaker.” Mr. Kelly had two sons who died in San Francisco; his daughter, Mr. William CARROLL, still lives in Main Street, nearly opposite Green.

He was an Irishman who retained a rich brogue to the last. He was a political exile, it is said, and came to America about a century ago, settling at Taunton, Mass., where he taught school during the revolution. Of the incidents of the times that tried men’s souls, he was very fond of talking, especially when his tongue was loosened (and it was ever quite limber) by a glass or two. He used to say he ‘always liked the Baptists because he never knew a Baptist who was a Tory during the revolution.’ He came to Paterson previous to 1800 and kept a tavern in Oliver Street, adjoining St. John’s Roman Catholic church, and being somewhat of an antiquarian, accumulated a valuable collection of local curiosities.”
