Funeral of Judge Marcus Doherty
A new find is a The Gazette story about the funeral of Judge Marcus Doherty on 8 Jul 1903 at St Patrick's Church (now Basilica) in Montreal. Following his death, Judge Marcus Doherty's life and many accomplishments were recounted in several newspapers, but I found nothing about the actual funeral until now.
The story notes that the "very impressive requiem mass was sung by.....Rev Father Doherty....". That would be Judge Marcus' nephew, the Very Reverend James Dougherty (again, with the spelling) of Manhattan, who himself would die less than 18 months later.
