"FINN--James J. FINN (1844/45-1925) - When the last chapter in the history of the Far West is finally written, the just chronicler will accord a preeminent place to the Irish. That history is indissolubly linked with the mining industry, and on that the adventurous Celt has left an indelible mark. The greatest mines, from the Rockies to the Sierras, have been discovered by Irishmen, and the greatest miners have been of the same race. DALY in Montana, MacKAY and FAIR in Nevada, KEARNS in Utah, Clark in Idaho, BARNS and WALSH in Colorado, are but a few of the names that suggest themselves in this connection. And, how many know that the great COMSTOCK Lode, named after a loudmouthed pretender really discovered by Peter O'RILEY and Patrick McLAUGHLIN?

One of that hardy race of pioneers who helped to develop the Far West, a miner who left the imprint of his personality on more that one of the great camps of his generation, passed away at St. Joseph's Hospital, Stockton, on Friday afternoon, May 8, when James FINN, weary of earthly wandering, set sail for the fort of final rest. Mr. FINN was a true Irishman, born in County Kerry, and imbued with a love of everything a patriotic Irishman should love. He was a Gaelic scholar, who wrote and recited in Gaelic and sang the songs of his native land in its Native tongue.He was in Virginia City and Gold Hill in the days when the Big Bonanza of the Comstock was pouring forth its cornucopia of gold and silver. He was in Bodie when the lynching of "Frenchy" helped to fasten on the memory of the West the immortal phrase, " a bad man from Bodie". He was in Grass Valley and Nevada City when the famous ALLISON Ranch Mine was still numbered among the producers of gold. And yet he spent more than forty years of his life in San Francisco, only leaving here when his health began to fail, about eighteen months ago, to spend his last days at St. Joseph's Hospital in Stockton, where one of his daughters, Sister M. COLUMBA, O. S. D., is stationed. There he passed many pleasant hours in the company of James CANIFFE, another Gaelic veteran well known to readers of The Leader. In addition to Sister M. COLUMBA, he left another daughter, Sister Catherine FINN, of the Sisters of Charity, now at Yaochow Ki, China. Of his other children, James, Richard and Elizabeth FINN and Mrs. Paul C. HAMANN reside in San Francisco, and Mrs. Mark POOLE and Mrs Ray GRIER in Oakland. His beloved wife, Ellen, died here in the Fall of 1918. A daughter, Mrs. William GEDDES, also preceded him to the tomb. A Sister, Mrs. Thomas BALDWIN survives him here. A solemn requiem high Mass for the repose of his soul was sung at St. Joseph's Church, San Francisco, on Monday morning, May 11, beginning at 10 o'clock, with the Rev. Henry O' Flynn as celebrant, the Rev. John F. Dunn as deacon, the Rev. Francis Mulvihill as sub-deacon, and the Rev. Father McCarthy of St. Patrick's Seminary, Menlo Park, master of ceremonies. The Rev. Father Martin, O. P., was present in the sanctuary. Interment was in Holy Cross Cemetery." Source: 'The Leader' (an Irish Newspaper published in San Francisco). Contact: Robert G.
