sudden death of his son, William Peck,
which occurred on Saturday, March II.
Mr. Peck was driving an auto truck for
the American Express company, and at
about a O. clock that afternoon, while on
duty was suddenly stricken with heart
disease. He remained conscious long
enough to shut'off the power on the big
truck, put on the brake, and turn the
front wheels so that they went upon
the sidewalk, and then fell from his
seat into the arms of his helper, expiring
within a few minutes.
He was twenty-five years old, and
had been married about two years.
His parents, who reside at 312 Wash
ington street, were notified on Saturday
evening, and Mr.. Peck left that night
for New York. The remains were
taken to Bellows Falls, Vermont, his
former home, and the former home of
his widow for interment.
The deceased was young man of ex-
emplary habits and had apparently en-
joyed the best of health.
