Sausalito Loses Pioneer Resident
Michael Hannon, one of Sausalito’s pioneer residents, having lived there forty-four years, died at his home Monday after a brief illness. Mr. Hannon was well known among the older residents all about the bay, having served in early manhood as a member of Company 10 of the San Francisco Volunteer Fire Department. He lived in San Francisco during the stirring days of the Vigilantes and could relate many interesting narratives of the times when that city was struggling to throttle the lawless element which invaded it in the days of ’49.
Mr. Hannon is survived by three children – John A. Hannon, town marshall of Sausalito; Wm. H. Hannon and Mrs. James Clark, both of Sacramento.
