Hailigan, well known Lincoln attorney, and veteran of the world war, died Friday afternoon at the St. Joseph hospital at San Diego, Calif., according to word received Friday night. Mr. Hailigan has been a member of the law firm of Doyle and Hailigan, T.J. Doyle, Mr. Halligans father-in-law, and senior member of the firm died last spring. Mr. Hailigan left for California only a month ago in the hope of regaining his health and had intended to organize another firm on his return to Lincoln. His wife and three year old daughter, Nancy, were at the home of his father, John Hailigan, at North Platte at the time of his death. His condition was not considered dangerous by physicians when he left Lincoln and his death came as a distinct shock to his many Lincoln friends and relatives. Mr. Hailigan had spent five years serving his country, in the Mexican disturbance and the world war. When the trouble with Mexico arose Mr. Hailigan organized a company at North Platte and went to the Mexican border. Mr. Hailigan resigned as commander of the local post of the veterans of foreign wars the first of July when he left for California. At the time of his death he was major of the second battalion of the national guard. While he was on the Mexican border he was elected county attorney of Lincoln county, and filled that office for a short time after his return to North Platte. While in high school at North Platte he captained the North Platte football team. When he entered the state university in 1905 he did not take up athletics because of an "athletic heart," but he was prominent in all other activities. He was a member of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity, and received his degree from the law college in 1909. It was immediately after his return from the Mexican border that he was married to Miss Kathleen Doyle of Lincoln. The wedding was one of the leading social events of the year. Shortly after the marriage he began the practice of law with his father-in-law. The body will be taken to his old home at North Platte for funeral services and interment.
