Death of Mrs. C. P. Hazelton

All that was mortal of Mrs. Hannah Hazelton were laid away in their last 
resting place on Thursday afternoon of this week, in the presence of weeping 
husband and children and a large concourse of sympathizing friends. Deceased 
was born in Rochester, N. Y., March 10, 1825, and was 63 years and 16 days 
old. She was married to Mr. C. P. Hazelton in Milwaukee. 

After residing in Milwaukee several years they moved to Wilmington, Ill., 
where they remained until 1870, when they came to Morris, where she continued 
to reside until her death. Last Saturday she complained of being ill, but the 
terrible closing of that illness was far from the thoughts of her family. 
Sunday that illness assumed a dangerous phase; physicians were unremitting in 
their attention to her; loving husband and devoted children used every effort 
in their power to retain the now dying love one; all, however, was unavailing, 
for at 9:40 Monday night the vital spark had fled, and wife, mother - the most 
sacred and sweetest word in any vocabulary - was cold in death. She was a lady 
who invariably won the love and respect of all who knew her. Her living 
children were all present at the last rites. They are Mrs. Sarah Mateer, 
Lincoln, Neb.; Mrs. J. W. Walker, Gilmore, Neb.; Martin, of Omaha, Neb.; Henry 
of Freeport, Ill.; Miss Bertha, Will and Gussie of Morris; Mrs. Wm. McDonald, 
La Salle, Ill. The funeral took place from the M. E. church, of which she was 
a member. Her ailment was congestion of the brain.
