Death of Charles A. Judd.

To record the death of old settlers ap
cears in the natural course of events, but
to chronicle the departure hence of those
lately settling among us is not duty we
are so frequently called upon to perform
This week, however, it becomes our pro-
vince to announce the death of one who,
although taking up his residence among
us al comparatively recent period
yet had won popular favor with wide cir
Gle in our midst on account of his kindness
OF heart and the pleasant intercourse he
maintained in both social and business
relations. Allusion is thus made to
Charles A. Judd, who departed this life
at his home.in the Fifth ward, Wednes-
day afternoon, January 2, 1889, at the
age Of Sc years. His disease was con-
sumption, aggravated by heart and
stomach troubles. His last sickness con-
fined him to his house about ten weeks,
bat he did not take to his bed until three
or four days before his decease.
Mr.. Judd was born at Waterbury,
Conn, Dec Is, 1882. He served an ap-
premiership to the printers trade, and
some 30 years ago was editor of g news
paper at Marquette, Mich. Leaving
Marquette be was engaged in business in
Detroit for few years, and about %
years ago took up his residence in Mil
waukee, for most of the time while there
being engaged with the American Ex-
press company. In November, 1883, he
succeeded George McNamee as agent of
the American Express company in this
city, the position he held at the time of
bis death.
Mr.. Judd was universally esteemed for
his good qualities of mind and heart, and
in his death the community suffers loss
that is much felt. In bis own family cir
Gle we cannot fully measure or feel the
loss sustained, and in the great trial his
wife and children are called upon to bear,
widespread sympathy is expressed. He
leaves wife and two sons, A. G. and
Welton, and four daughters, Mrs. John
Bennett, Matte, Kittie and Gertie.
Mr. Judd's funeral was held Friday
morning from st. Paul's Episcopal
church, of which he was a communicate,
and member of the vestry, Rev. ]. B.
Finn officiating. The pail bearers were
S. S. McDuffey, assistant superintendent
American Express company; Thos James,
Route agent American Express company;
Rich. Tobin, transfer clerk at Watertown
Junction; VIM. Cram, clerk in the Wa
tertown office; John Blair, delivery clerk,
