Dr. Charles Hoffman, one of the most prominent Episcopal divines in New York, died at Jekyl island last night. Dr. Hoffman came south with several members of his family a few weeks ago with the hope of improving his health. The noted divine has been in ill health for some months and recently his physicians advised a trip south and Jekyl island was selected as the place to go. Dr. Hoffman was owner of the Hoffman house in New York city and also of the Hoffman Arms, one of the most fashionable apartment houses in the metropolis, was quite wealthy and related to the celebrated Hoffman family of the east. A special Pullman sleeper has been engaged by the relatives of the deceased to convey them back to New York and they will leave Brunswick this afternoon for New York, where the funeral and interment will occur.
