Comrade A. G. HAGUE died at the Mt. Pleasant Hospital Wednesday. He had been poorly for about a year and about six months ago he was taken to the Mt. Pleasant insane hospital, but his ailments were on account of age and therefore, incurable. His remains were taken to Libertyville Wednesday night, where funeral services were held, and then brought to this city for burial.
