OLD BUT ACTIVE.
Fitchburg's Veteran News
paper Man Is Dead.

Fitchburg, Feb. 15.-Erasmus A. Nor
ris, a veteran newspaper man of this
city, died suddenly at his home on
Lincoln street, last evening, soon after
supper. He had been out during the
afternoon and appeared in his usual
health with the exception of slight
cold. After supper his cold became
worse, and he called his daughter and
told her that he thought that he was
going to have pneumonia. He did not
feel ill enough, however, to call a ply
stefan, but submitted to some home
treatment. A short time after he laid
down on couch with his face to the
wall and Immediately expired without
speaking again. His family physician
was called and pronounced heart dis
ease as the cause of death.
Mr.. Norris fought in the civil war
and a member of Post 10, G.. A. r., of
this city. Mr.. Norris was II years of
age, but carried his years with such
apparent lightness that he was not
taken for a man over so years of age
by a large number. His daily appear
ance on the streets and his lively in
terest in newspaper affairs beIokened
the newspaper man.
Mr.. Norris was the veteran newspa-
Pei HIGH VI lulS CLIyy anu IL 10 uOuuI-
full if any other in the state had larger
connections with newspapers than he.
Upon taking up his residence in this
city, he founded the Fitcnburg Trib-
une, of which he was sole proprietor
for several years. Lack of capital
hampered Mr.. Norris IN his efforts to
make, it a permanent success. Since
that time he has done repertorial work
for the local papers. He leaves 8. wife
and two children.
Today this city can be said to be
fairly well recovering from the bliz-
zard, and affairs are attaining their
normal condition. This morning the
Worcester branch of the Consolidated

train since Monday went out for that
city, direct Trains from the east and
