Short Illness is Fatal to Francis E. Lambert.
Well Known Attorney Victim of Pneumonia.
Prominent in Politics.
Member of Board of Public Works and of State Legislature for Two Terms---Nominee for Mayor in 1905.
Francis E. Lambert, age 64, well known attorney and politician, died Thursday night at 9 o'clock at his home, 515 West Marion street, death being due to influenza, which developed into pneumonia. He had been ill only eight days.

In his political activities Mr. Lambert advocated the principles of the republican party. He was a member of the state legislature for two terms, 1894-98, prior to which time St. Joseph and Laporte counties formed one judicial district. During his term in office Mr. Lambert introduced and had passed a bill making this county the circuit. He was nominee for mayor in the municipal campaign in the fall of 1905, in which E. J. Fogarty was elected for his third term of office, and he served as the republican member of the board of works, 1910-1914, under the administration of Charles L. Goetz. In 1898 he was appointed referee in bankruptcy, which position he filled for 14 years.
Mr. Lambert was prominently affiliated with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. He was a member of South Bend lodge, No. 29, of South Bend encampment, No. 9, and Canton South Bend, No. 9, Patriarch Militant. He also was a member of South Bend lodge, No. 235, B.P.O.E.
Mr. Lambert, a native of St. Joseph county, was born on a farm, June 4, 1860, the son of Oliver C. and Ellen McMullen Lambert. Oliver Lambert was one of the pioneers of Indiana, coming from Virginia as early as 1835. For many years after his arrival he conducted a cooper shop in South Bend and in 1853 purchased the farm in Warren township on which he spent the remainder of his life. He died in 1872.
Francis Lambert received his early education in schools of the county, later attending the Northern Indiana Normal college, from which he was graduated in 1881. For 12 years he was a teacher in the county schools and was also identified with the South Bend Commercial college as principal of the business department. Cherishing ambitions to become a lawyer, he finally entered the law department of Valparaiso university and upon the completion of his course of training was admitted to the bar in 1891. For a number of years he was associated with F. M. Jackson in the practice of his profession, but finally opened an office alone. Later he formed a partnership with L. W. Hammond, which was dissolved in 1923, and he again conducted his practice alone.
Surviving are his wife, Mrs. Blanche Gee Lambert, whom he married Feb. 24, 1904; one daughter, Miss Mildred E. Lambert, at home; and one sister, Mrs. Olive Witter, of Kittanning, Pa.
