The death of Mr. Patrick Furlong, father of Mrs. Thomas Gentleman, of North Sixteenth street, was a sad occurrence.

Both of his sons were telegraphed of the sad occurrence and arrived here last night. The funeral took place today from the church of the Holy Family, and the remains were interred in the Holy cemetery sepulcher [sic].
