WI], November 23, 1867, Page 2 Column 3 A SUDDEN DEATH It is with a sad heart that we record the death of Mr. Thomas A. CASWELL, many years a respected resident of Black River Falls. Mr. CASWELL has had the heart disease for some time, and his friends have frequently feared that his last hours were at hand. Wednesday evening last he was taken unusually ill, and in a short time breathed his last. This blow falls heavily in the home of Mr. C., where there is a wife and two small children. Another good citizen, kind and obliging neighbor and loving husband and father, has been called hence. Many hearts were sad--many bitter tears have been and will be shed. The funeral took place Friday afternoon, and was largely attended. He being a Mason, the ceremonies were conducted by the Masonic Fraternity.
