on Van Zant street, Sunday afternoon,

Mr. Hill, well thought-of locally,
was a decidedly popular employee of
the Norwalk iron Wombawhore he
was employed for, the Past eighteen
years. He was a Member or I”1111101119

Slime .the slacking work in thoulocal

in
Bridgeport. He suffered a fall, some
time ago, in Bridgeport, anytime that
time has been in ill health. it is said
he was unable to work in comfort be
cause of the condition of his health
but he insisted on reporting for duty
each morning. .
Mi‘. Hill retired halts early last eve-
ning. When ”Mrs, Trapbagger, his
boarding mistress, noted the timehad
passedthat ‘marked his usual morn-
ing rising, she decided to investigate.
The door of his room was bolted, and
the odor of gas could be detected
through'the transom. The room was
broken into. Mr. Hill was lying on
the bed partly clothed. The windows
were down. and the cock of a she jet
was half open. When found his body
was still warm, and life had beanie:
tinct fononly a short time. 1Among
Mr. Hill's many'frlends the opinion
prevails his death was entirely accl-
dental. ' '
The dead man is survived by his
widow. a daughter and one son. They
are: Miss Clara Hill. of this city, and
Sidney hill. of Stamford ... The body
was brought from Bridgeport, yester»
day afternoon. to the establishment of
