Condition of Charles Hughes-
H. A. Axtell spent Sunday with Charles W. Hughes at Bedford. Mr. Axtell
returned home at midnight and at that time Mr. Hughes was resting much
easier than at any time during the day. The physicians do not believe Mr.
Hughes will get well. Friday night Mr. Hughes believed he was about to die
and called all the relatives to his bedside. He gave all directions
concerning his funeral and named his pall bearers. At that time it was
believed he would not live thirty minutes longer. His condition was very
alarming all day Sunday.
