EDWARD HUGHES DIES IN BED
Factory Worker Discovered Lifeless by Brother at Home This Morning.
HEART ATTACK LIKELY CAUSE
Edward E. Hughes, 49, residing with his brother, William C. Hughes, at 1124 North Anderson street was found dead in his bed about 6:30 o'clock this morning. Heart trouble is believed to have been the cause.
Mr. Hughes was apparently in his usual health when he retired last night about 9:30 o'clock. He had partaken of a hearty supper and appeared in good spirits. When his brother called him and he did not answer this morning an investigation was made and he was found lifeless. He had apparently been dead for several hours.
The body was removed to Edgar M. Clark's and Coroner Earl Sells notified of the death. The coroner will be here this afternoon to hold the necessary investigation into the circumstances.
Lifelong Resident.
Edward E. Hughes was the son of Charles and Adella Hughes and was born May 4, 1880. All of his life has been spent in this community and he was known as an industrious likable man, with a large circle of friends who will regret to learn of his death. He was an employee of the Elwood lawn Mower company.
Surviving are the brother with whom he made his home and another brother, James Hughes, who resides north of the city.
He was a member of the Elwood lodge of the Loyal Order of Moose, Seneca Tribe of Red Men and the Methodist Protestant church.
No arrangements for the funeral had been made this afternoon.
