Excerpt from 'Man-Eater; The Life and Legend of an American Cannibal'
On Thursday, February 6, 1902, Hatch - the man who "Aided Packer in His Dark Hour," as the headlines read - died at home at the age of forty-three, with his wife, Millie (nee Shipperson), and his two teenaged children, Lola and Duane Jr., at his bedside. Packer, looking less sickly than he had upon his parole a year earlier but clearly stricken with grief, served as a pallbearer when his friend was laid to rest in Riverside Cemetery three day later.
