Sudden Death of Cullen Shattuck

Friends of Cullen Shattuck were
shocked and grieved Tuesday, Sept.
27, upon being apprised of his sud-
den death which occurred at IL
o'clock that morning at his home
west of town. He was stricken Sat
urday night with a severe headache
from which he received relief and
apparently fell asleep, but IT was
found Sunday morning that he had
lapsed into state Of como from
which he never regained conscious
ness. 1t has not been fully deter
mined yet what ailment caused his
sudden death, whether it was from
paralytic stroke or from comph-
cation of disorders of his system.
Deceased was. the youngest son
of Mrs. Emily Shattuck, who passed
away last April. He was thirty
four years of age, and was born
on the Shattuck farm west of tow9,
Feb. 27, 1887. Three sisters, Mrs.
Nellie Potter of Burlington, Iowa;
Mrs. Dora Williams of Decorah, and
Mrs. Vernie Sherman of Jefferson
township, and one brother, Luman
Shattuck, on the old home farm, are
left to mourn his untimely death.
Funeral services will be held from
the home Thursday afternoon at 200

terv. -Waukon Democrat.

Judge III. #. Reed Resigns

Federal Judge Henry t. Reed of
Cresco forwarded his resignation as
federal Judge on Thursday of last
week to President Harding, the re-
signation going through the attorney
generals office however. The re-
signation is effective December lst.
Judge Reed was appointed in March,
1904 and has therefore occupied the
bench for over seventeen years,
rather longer than the average ten
ure of federal judges who are usu-
ally appointed rather late in life.
The Judge is rs years of age, five
years past the retirement age and
with his fine and unsullied record
as a Judge is entitled to take
advantage of the retirement privi-
lege and turn over the onerous bur-
den of the judgeship to a younger
man. There will doubtless be live
ly. scramble for appointment as sew
eral candidates have for several
months past been trying to as
certain whether or not the Judge
intended to take advantage of the
retirement privilege.-Cresco Plain
