Evening Republican, Volume 20, Number 105, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 2 May 1916 — Death of Mrs. Burl Richardson Was Sudden. [ARTICLE]

Death of Mrs. Burl Richardson Was Sudden.

It will be recalled that at the time the mention was made of the death of Mrs. Burl Richardson, of Bayfield, Wis., early in April the full information about her death was lacking. This has since been supplied by The Bayfield Progress. Mrs. Richardson had not been ill, but had become languid and weary and it was decided that a treatment might be of benefit to her and it was for this she was taken to the hospital at Ashland. She had been there* only a few days and was showing marked improvement. At 1 o’clock Sunday morning, April 2nd, the nurse found her awake and she replied to an inquiry about her condition that she was all right. Within an hour, however, the end had come. It is thought to have been due to cerebral hemorrhage or heart failure. Mr. Richardson had visited her on the Thursday before her death and was planning to go to see her on Sunday when the news of her death reached him. The Bayfield paper pays highest praise to her and states that all Bayfield was clouded m sorrow at her sudden death.
