Death of J. r. Jackson

John +. jackson of this village, died
suddenly Thursday forenoon, Feb. IL,
in hospital in Toronto, Ontario, in
which city Mr.. jackson was engaged
in business as manager of the Nor
cross Brothers plant The news was
most unexpected, for although it was
known that Mr.. Jackson had been i'll
for some weeks, it was known that he
was steadily improving from the at
tack Of pneumonia which he had gone
through. But he was stricken with
apoplexy, from which he died in a
very few moments.
Mr.. Jackson was so years of age and
he came to Manchester Depot six or
seven years ago from Providence, i
l., to take charge of the Norcross Co.'S
plant here, having been in the employ
of the Norcross people for more than
Is years.
Mr.. Jackson was thoroughly prac-
teal marble and granite man, and had
been superintendent of the construc-
ton of some of the notable buildings
in this country, among them being the
state capitol of Rhode Island, located
at Providence. He was very quiet,
unassuming man, but one who was a
producer Of results.
Mr.. Jackson's death occurred upon
the 25th anniversary of Mr.. and Mrs.
Jackson's marriage. The remains
were brought to the home here, ac-
companied by Mrs. Jackson and a
brother and nephew of Mr.. Jackson,
and the funeral services were held on
Sunday afternoon. Prayers were said
at the house by Rev. S. X. Perkins
and the remains conveyed to the par
lors of the Congregational church
where the funeral services were held.
There the body rested until taken on
the evening train to Providence, r. l.,
for interment. Besides his wife, Mr..
Jackson leaves two children, Miss
Jeanie w. Jackson and John p jack
son, besides brothers.
