Charles Edward CULP

The death of Charles E. CULP,formerly of this place occured at his home in LaCrosse, Thursday night, at ten o'clock. The information received here that he was dead came as a great surprise because very few people knew that he was sick. The cause of his death was heart heart failure following a two weeks sickness from pneumonia. He was apparently on his way to recovery with pulse normal, and fever gone, but quite weak from the attack.
Thursday night before going to sleep hhe conversed with friends about a couple of fatal railroad accidents he had seen there a few weeks before. He had not been asleep very long when he suddenly awoke and remarked in a startled tone of voice, "oh those a awful dreams". after which he drolled off into unconsciousness and passed away before a physician could be summonsed. It is presumed that the dreams were about the accidents he had talked about shortly before and that the shock of again seeing those awful fatalities produced a nervous re-action that was more than his heart could stand and death resulted.
Charles Edward CULP, son of James and Elizabeth CULP was born in Jasper county, Dec. 2, 1871; his age was 44 years, 3 months and 21 days. on April 12, 1896 he was united in marriage to Belle HUTCHISON of Pulaski county; to this union four children were born. He was a member of the Christian church, Francesville Knights of Pythia s lodge #396 and the Modern Woodmen of America.
There remains to mourn, his devoted wife, his four children, Docia, Clarence, Fern, Raymond; his aged mother, Mrs. James CULP of Monon; three brothers; William, James, and otis of Jasper county; two sisters, Mrs. George Long of Monon and Mrs. George Logan of Gillam.
The funeral service was held Sunday morning at 11 o'clock at the Christian church in Francesville, Rev. Harry Huber, officiating. Burial was made in the Roseland cemetery east of town.
