Mr. Mularkey was crossing the tracks when he heard an approaching south bound train. As it was dark and he could not easily discern on which track the train was coming. It is presumed he jumped to get out of the way. He fell close to the ashes sidewalk in the subway, 12 feet below.
There were people close by when he fell and they went to his assistance. Mr. Mularkey was taken to Padden's hotel, only a few yards away. Here Dr. Kelly attended him. Later in the evening he was taken home and in a few hours he was dead. Mr. Mularkey was an aged man and the shock of the fall killed him. One one of his ribs was broken.
Everyone who knew Mr. Mularkey will be sorry now he is gone. He has been a familiar figure here for the past forty years. He was a hard working good natured man who did not have an enemy and he had a pleasant word for everybody. He was born in Ireland but most of his life was spent in Archbald where he was known to everyone.

Malarky

November 18, 1918

Hello, my name is Hanora Wirght Malarky. Of course most people remember me as Annie Malarky. Especially by those who stay at our bar and hotel on the corner of Salem Road and Chestnut Street. Most people will remember it as John Wright's Tavern. He was my nephew.

My loving husband, Patrick, was born on June 21, 1865, here in Archbald on Salem Road. His father was Jamsie Malarky and his mother was Mary Caviston. Many times he told me the story that his mother was pregnant with him as they were crossing the Atlantic Ocean to come to the new land. Relatives were already living here. They left his brother Michael in Ireland because he was too sickly to make the trip. When the boat arrived in Philadelphia his mother said that the black bunting and decorations were still up on the buildings for President Lincoln, who was assassinated on April 15 that year just as the Civil war was ending.

Patrick's mother died in 1877 as she gave birth to his youngest sister Mariah, who later married Patrick McAndrew.

My husband was very industrious. By the age of 15 he had worked his way up to being a mule driver in the White Oak Mines. He saved and saved enough money to build the Hotel and Tavern. He was very successful and was the first person in the town to own one of those new finagled motor cars. Oh, how he loved to drive it around town giving people a ride. He kept it in a garage behind the hotel on Chestnut Street.

On November 11, 1918, we were all celebrating the end of World War I, but there was another enemy lurking , the flu epidemic of 1918. My beloved Patrick got sick and seven days after the end of war he was dead.

I was heart broken and missed him dearly. I took over the hotel and ran it. Every body remember Annie Malarkey's place.
