Ozaukee Advertiser
DEATH OF COL. TEALL -- On Friday evening last Col. William TEAL an old settler well
known throughout 
the state as one of the oldest and most enterprising settlers in Michigan and
Wisconsin died very 
suddenly whilst conversing with a friend, apparently all right he asked for a place
to lie down to die, 
saying that he was not going to live five minutes, the friend referred to supposed
he was jesting and 
paid little attention to the remark, he then fell back in his chair, slid to the
floor and never spoke 
afterwards, the persons present could scarce realize that it was possible that he
was dead, sent for Dr. 
SCHOLL who after practicing all the modern experiments for resuscitation pronounced
him dead.

The Col. was a remarkable man and had great experience in early pioneering, if some
persons better 
acquainted with his early history would furnish us with an obituary notice for our
next we would be glad 
to publish it or give us sufficient data to get it up ourself, it would be
interesting to the old settlers of 
Wisconsin.
