Obituary: C. J. HUTTON DIES SUDDENLY. Charles J. Hutton, one of the
best known grocerymen in this city, passed away suddenly at his home in
Gillespie Sunday morning at 3:30 from a sudden attack of heart trouble. Mr.
Hutton had been at his place of business all day Saturday and up to closing
time, when he went to home in apparent good health. During the night his wife
was attracted by his heavy breathing, and called one of her sons, but he passed
away before a physician could be summoned. The deceased had conducted a
grocery store in this city for the past 25 years. He was the adopted son of Mr.
and Mrs. John Hutton, both deceased, and at the time of his death he was 52
years of age. On February 7, 1900, he was united in marriage to Miss Lula 
Fitzpatrick, of Gillespie, and to this union six children were born, three sons
and three daughters, James, Irwin, Horace, Edith, Louise and Betty Maude,
who are all at home. Horace is a student at St. Louis University. He also
leaves one brother, Joseph Lisch, who resides in Quincy, and a  number of
nieces and nephews. An inquest was held by Coroner Jacoby, the jury
reiterating a verdict that death resulted from heart failure. The funeral
services were conducted from the Catholic Church on Tuesday morning
at 9 o'clock, and interment took place at the Holy Cross Cemetery.
A proclamation was issued by the mayor and business houses closed during 
the funeral hour.
