The Arlington Enterprise, 3 December 1898
| One of Arlington's oldest citizens, Mr. Dennis Ahern, of 47 North Union street, died suddenly at his home last Saturday evening of heart failure. For fifteen years Mr. Ahern was a terrible sufferer from asthma, and in all these years he has been unable to lie down in bed, but had to sit in two chairs with a pillow at his head, for by lying down it meant death by choking. |
| The deceased had been a resident of the town for over forty-eight [sic] years, being well known by the older town's people. A wife, one daughter and seven sons survive him, Mr. Dennis Ahern Jr. the hairdresser in the Finance Building being one of his sons. |
| The funeral services were held at St. Malachy's Church on Tuesday, and the interment was at St. Paul's Cemetery. |
