Sudden Death of T. W. Hazelton.

Decorah friends of T. W. Hazelton were pained to learn of his sudden death Tuesday morning from heart failure. Not feeling well that morning he retired soon after arising for the day, and his death followed soon after. Mr. Hazelton has been a resident of Calmar for many years, during the greater part of the time in the employ of the Milwaukee road as foreman of the round house and in charge of the yards. In recent years he has been engaged in the insurance business. He has been honored by positions of responsibility at home and during four sessions of the Iowa legislature was doorkeeper in the House of Representatives, being head doorkeeper at the last session. He was a man of high ideals and strict integrity, and whose memory will be cherished by a host of friends.
