Mrs. Hall Dead

Friends of H. C. Hall who formerly lived in Jackson township, will be pained to learn of the sudden death of Mrs. Hall of apoplexy. She was sitting in a chair in her house in Mesa County, Colorado, and died without a moment’s warning.

Mr. Hall has met with financial reverses since leaving here and has taken the four children back to Nauvoo, Ill. He lost all his property in the Colorado venture.
