John James Hadfield, age 33, died on Tuesday after lingering for only a few days duration brought on by excessive heat. Mr. Hadfield was very heavy, weighing over 300 pounds, and for the past several summers the excessive hot periods have been distressing to him. Mr. Hadfield has conducted a grocery store on Elm Street for a number of years. The deceased was a son of John Hadfield, and a stepson of William Fletcher, president of the First National Bank. Arthur Fletcher, the Giant's shortstop, is a half-brother to him, while Mrs. Dave Jones is a full sister. Deceased was married 12 years ago to Clara Albrecht, daughter of Ernest Albrecht, who with three children, survive. Services were held Thursday from the home to Christ Episcopal Church, with interment in Glenwood Cemetery.

1910 census says (with approx. ages): John James 29, Clara 27.
Children: Herold 7, Lucile 4, David 1.
