Death of O. Howard Hull
Chicago, Sept. 18.—The funeral services of O. Howard Hull were held today at 3 o'clock from the chapel of Oakwoods Cemetery. A great many friends in the jewelry trade were in attendance. Mr. Hull dropped dead on Wednesday just as he entered a garage in Evanston. Physicians claim his death was due to cerebral hemorrhage.
Death came to Mr. Hull while he was in his early 60’s. He was born in a small town in Ohio and got his early training in the jewelry business in Columbus, O., when he worked for the Columbus Watch Co. Later he represented the Pairpoint Mfg. Co., of New Bedford, Mass. When he represented this firm in the west he made his headquarters in Chicago. He was connected with the company for 35 years, and five years ago resigned his position to retire. During the five years, around the holiday season he was connected with C. D. Peacock, Inc., as floor manager.
Deceased is survived by his widow and one daughter, Mrs. James G. Kellogg. He made his home at 1509 Hinman Ave.
