HEAD or HUGHES
GRANITE co. DEAD
Man Who Was Developing Quarries
at Adamant Dropped
Dead.

William Il. Hughes, president Of the
Hughes Granite g. Quarry Co. Of Mont
pelier and Of the Hughes Granite Co
Of Clyde, O., died about 10 o'clock last
evening in the Apollo club in Mont
pelier Of heart trouble, probably caused
BY indigestion. Mr.. Hughes came into
the club as they were paging the
club for him to answer telephone.
This he answered and then went into
one of the lavatories, where shortly
afterward Frank Pratt heard him
groaning and went to him.
Mr.. Hughes was on the floor, ap-
parently in great pain. He was moved
to "a couch where he died almost in
stantly. The body was taken to the
Barber & Lanier undertaking rooms
where preparations for taking IT to
Clyde, o., were made.
Mr.. Hughes had not been feeling
very well for a short time and occa-
sionally had to rest while walking
from his rooming place to the office in
the Lawrence block. He attended the
moving pictures before going to the
club last evening.
Although he had been connected
with the granite business in Mont
pelier but short time, he had be-
come well acquainted with the people
Of the city. He became interested in
the dark granite stock in the Patch
at Adamant about two years
ago and bought the quarry, forming
the Hughes Granite g. Quarry Co.,
and he also headed the Hughes
Granite Co. in Clyde, o. He had opened
up the quarry extensively in the last
summer season, during which time he
bought railroad equipment in Massa-
,husetts and expected in the spring to
build road to the quarry, surveys for
hat purpose having been made On
Thursday he was in his usual pleasant
manner when seen and conversed with
n his Office and was talking plans con
lected with the laying of the road. 1t
vas his plan to make the stock in that
quarry rival any quarried in this sec
ion. In Clyde he has for many years
conducted a successful granite cutting
liant, which at the present time is
rehabilitation.
Mr.. Hughes was 55 years of age and
lad been engaged in the granite bust
less for "a years. 1t is understood that
he work of building the railroad from
he FairInont station in East Montpel-
er to the 1uarries viii be carried out |

'aek is vice president and c. S. Whit

He leaves his wife. who is said to be

cd five years ago in mausoleum
rhich Mr.. Hughes built at Fort Gin
on, O., where the interment of Mr..
hughes will take place after funeral
eryices at Clyde.
