*C.D. Tull of Washington, who had been visiting his mother Mrs. Julia Tull in this city recently, met with a painful accident in Chicago a few days ago. When about to leave for Grand Rapids on the elevated road he fell to the street below, badly spraining his knee, dislocating a finger, besides being badly shaken up. He was taken to a hospital there, but at his request was brought to this city Sunday morning to his mother's home on Washington Street. Dr. P.S. Root is attending him.

**MORTUARY - Charles D. Tull, an account of whose accident at Chicago appeared in last week's issue, died suddenly at the home of his mother, Mrs. Julia Tull last Saturday morning. Mr. Tull was recovering from his injuries and was able to be about on crutches. On Saturday morning he spent some time outdoors and then returned to the house where he was soon afterward joined by Dr. Root. They were having a pleasant chat together and while Mr. Tull complained of not feeling well and of perspiring too freely, this was supposed to be due to the exercise he had just taken. Suddenly he threw himself back on the bed and after a brief interval it was noted that something was wrong with him. Dr. Root gave him injections and stimulants and relieved him. But after about five minutes he expired, heart failure brought on perhaps by the accident, being the case. Mr. Tull was the son of John and Julia Tull and was born in this city in 1838. At the age of fourteen he entered the employ of Mr. Pinkus, where he remained for three years. He was next given an important position, for one so young, at the bank of Rayner & Clark of Tecumseh. When about twenty years old he went to Toledo and became a telegraph operator and from there entered the secret service at the outbreak of the Civil War, serving until its close. The war being over he came back north and spent the rest of his life in and about New York, holding positions with the Central and Pennsylvania roads, until a little over a year ago, when he became a clerk in the treasury department at Washington, D.C. His wife, who was staying at Buckhanon, W. Va. was completely prostrated by the shock and was unable to come to the funeral. He also leaves four sons, Lucian P., John F., Herbert H., and Victor R., a brother Victor in California, two sisters, Mrs. David Kellogg of Seattle, Washington, and Mrs. Colvin of Missouri. Funeral services were held at his mother's home in this city Tuesday afternoon at four o'clock, Dr. Peters of Detroit, officiating. (Buried on June 25,1901. Obituary from Monroe Democrat, Thurs.

Charles was laid to rest in the Tull family lot, in Woodland Cemetery, Monroe, Michigan
