                         LOUGHLIN DIES IN BALTIMORE

        Well Known Norfolk Printer Passes Away After Operation At Hopkins

In the death of Charles M. Loughlin of this city, which occurred at Johns 
Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, Md. yesterday, there passed away another of a 
famous circus and theatrical family, known professionally as the Costellos. 
Charles Loughlin was also known all over the country as a typical traveling 
printer, musician and all round good fellow of the old school.  A native of 
Norfolk, he had put in some of the best years of his life in "sticking" type for 
the local newspapers, as well as many other publications throughout the United 
States and Canada.  Of genial and sympathetic disposition, he made friends 
wherever he went, and his death will be deeply regretted by all who knew him.
Mr. Loughlins's death followed a surgical operation for which he entered the 
Baltimore hospital about ten days ago.
Mr. Loughlin is survived by a brother, Dave Loughlin of Henderson, N.C., the 
last of the celebrated Norfolk family which was originally composed of Will, 
George, Dave, Harry and Charles Loughlin known as the Costello Brothers, who 
achieved prominence in the circus ring as acrobats, aerialists, contortionists 
and bareback riders, and who were connected with the Barnum and Bailey and other 
large circuses touring the country.
The body of Mr. Loughlin, who was 57 years of age, will arrive here from 
Baltimore Saturday morning. Arrangements for the funeral will be announced 
later.
