CHARLES MORGAN.


 Charles Morgan, the oldest son of MT and Mrs Henry Morgan, died Tues day morning, May 8, aged 28 years. For number of years he was the trusted and valued employe of the Fairchild S Shelton Manufacturing Company at Bridgeport and it is thought the close, steady confinement to his work brought on the trouble which caused his death. He came home about two months ago and al- though treated by skillful physicians they failed to check the disease and the end came during the early morn- ing hours, Tuesday. He was an exem- plary young man and his early death has caused a deep sorrow throughout the community. The funeral was held Thursday. The interment was in the cemetery near I. B. Goodsell's.
