The First National Bank of Alliance Mat Brennan Dead in California A telegram was received by (he Brennan amity yesterday from Los Gatos, Calif., announcing the death of their brother, Mat, that morning at 9:30. While the information came as a shock, the fact that Mr, Brennan's serious illness with tuber culosis was well known, prepared them for the news. In company with C. A. Newberry, de ceased left here shortly after Christmas for California in hopes of regaining strength in the balmy atmosphere of the Pacific slope, where the warm sunshine brings forth the buds and tlowers even in winter months, but this anticipation was not realized, The frail nature of this esti mable young man could not fly from the shadow of death and he soon passed away at the home of his aunt, Mrs. M. Fitzger ald. Mat Brennan was well known in Box Butte county, where with his mother, brother andvsisters he came in the early days. He was a man among men, so to speak, and possessed a disposition that to know was to admire. Although suffering and fighting a constantly losing battle with the affliction that was gradually drawing him toward the goal, he was always cheer ful and patient. In fact, his patient dis position was the admiration of all. In tellectually, Mr. Brennan was profound and broad He had read much and was conversant on many subjects. When ask ed why he persisted in the long and losing struggle for life, he replied that it was a duty lie owed nature and the struggle must be pursued even to the end. Mr, Brennan was one of five brothers, and'lcavcs a sister, MrsvC. A, Newberry, with whom he resided while in the city. He was thirty-four years old. Chas. Brennan left this morning for Los Gatos to attend the funeral, the date of which Is not known as yet.
