the doctor and £30 for the apothecary. Dr. Tracey, who had not been qualified
as M.D., but at the same time was considered as skillful
as the best, used to visit the patients. When Dr. Geary, Medical Superintendent
for the Poor Law Commissioners, heard of Dr. Tracey's visits to patients, he
said he would not allow such a practice to be continued. Dr. Kittson said he could not discharge the duties without Dr.
Tracey's assistance in that manner. Two doctors were then appointed at £80 a
year each. The £80 was afterwards raised to £100.

Nenage Guardian
His numerous friends in Nenagh
will regret to hear that a once favourite amongst them, has just paid the debt
of nature, in the person of Dr. Daniel
Tracey [born circa 1790]. He had been a resident in Limerick since 1858,
when he was appointed resident Apothecary to the fever hospital at John's Gate,
a situation he resigned from some eight or ten years ago. He was gifted with
talents of a high order, and in his profession, he was one of the old school,
and had few superiors. He came of an old race in the Parish of Templemore, and was the 11th child of Patrick and Mary Tracey. Those who knew him will
remember him as a gentleman of a bye gone time in which the intellectual
faculties were cultivated as well for professional advancement as for the
entertainment of the circle in which he moved.

(NG) Death of Daniel Tracey, Esq.
His numerous friends in Nenagh
will regret to hear that a once general favourite amongst them, has just paid
the debt of nature, in the person of Dr. Daniel Tracey. He had been a resident in
Limerick since 1858, when he was appointed Resident Apothecary to the fever
hospital at John's Gate, a situation he resigned from some eight or ten years
ago. He was gifted with talents of a high order, and in his profession, he was
one of the old school, and had few superiors. He came of an old race in the
Parish of Templemore, and was the eleventh child of
Mr. Patrick Tracey and Mrs. Mary Tracey (otherwise Ryan), and was born on
Saturday, November 2nd, 1793, so that he had reached the 83rd year of his age,
when death overtook him. He was highly intelligent, had read and remembered
much, was witty, anecdotic, full of song and story.
Within the last few years his health had been declining; and he paid a visit
some time ago to the family tomb in the beautifully situated ancient graveyard
in the Abbey of Tyone, near Nenagh,
in the expectation of being laid there soon beside the mortal remains of his
deceased children and wife; but we have heard that he was buried on the morning
of Wednesday in the Cemetery at Mount St. Laurence, Limerick, he having died
the day before at his lodgings in Catherine-street in this city, and that the
funeral was attended by a few only of his late wife's relatives. The deceased
possessed excellent social amenities; those who knew him will remember him as a
gentleman of a byegone time in which the intellectual
faculties were cultivated as well for professional advancement as for the
entertainment of the circle in which he moved. - Limerick Reporter

(N) Dr. Daniel Tracey
His numerous friends in Nenagh
(says the Limerick Reporter) will regret to hear that a once general favourite
among them has just paid the debt of nature in the person of Dr. Daniel Tracey.
He had been a resident of limerick since 1858, when he was appointed resident
apothecary to the fever hospital at John's Gate, a situation which he resigned
some eight or ten years ago. He was highly intelligent, had read and remembered
much, was witty, anecdotic, full of song and story, and some fifty years ago
his ballad on "The Brunswickers of the Ormondes" was one of the most popular effusions of the
period, and one of the most successful in the delineation of the men who were
at that period engaged in the work of opposing Catholic Emancipation.

(NG) The Late Dr. Daniel Tracy
The Limerick Reporter says:- Ex-County Inspector
Timothy McMahon, brother-in-law to the late Daniel Tracy, Esq,
whose death we announced took place in Limerick on the 16 ult,
is about to erect a handsome marble monument over his remains which were
interred with every respect in the Roman Catholic cemetery of Mount St.
Laurence, close by this city...rather than in the old family vault in the
ancient Abbey of Tyrone, near Nenagh, which he was
apprehensive had been already overcrowded by the deceased members of his
family...[including] deceased wife and children...
In the Limerick Reporter, 23 February, 1877, Maurice Lenihan published a report of an interview he had with the
late Dr. Daniel Tracy on the famous old classical schools of Tipperary.
