Charles G. Flint Found Dead In the
F'ieId-PerSOnaIs

at Dana LaClair's, died very suddenly
Wednesday afternoon. He started
out from Mr. LaCIair's to go up across
to his old home farm. He was found
dead where he had climbed over
stone wall. No one knows whether
his climbing the stone wall caused his
death or how it was caused. One
shoe or slipper that he wore was
found caught in the stone wall. Mr..
Flint was son of Jonas Flint, one
of the early residents of Sutton, and
we think a native of Sutton, where
he has always lived. We know of
no near relatives only a niece who
was adopted into the family years
ago, married and lives somewhere in
the West. The funeral service was
held at his late home at Mr.. LaClair's
Friday afternoon, Rev. c. r. Upton
officiating, and the burial was at the
village cemetery in the family lot
where his wife, father and mother,
are buried.
