• Notes

  From Findagrave: Transcribed from the Vermont Watchman and state journal October 26, 1881 page 3 Chelsea - A terrible accident which happened last Saturday has shocked the entire community in a remarkable degree. That morning Capt. W. H. H. Hall, his son Eddie, age 13 years, and Albert W. Chandler, went on a hunting excursion, going into the boarders of Washington. About noon, while walking under an apple tree, Eddie, thoughtlessly tried to knock off an apple with the breech of his gun, which went off, emptying a charge of shot into the unfortunate boys right leg, near the hip. He was brought home, and it was decided that his only hope lay in the amputation of the limb, which was performed by Dr. Goss, assisted by Drs. Corwin and Godfrey. It was without avail, and at about 6 o'clock he died. A bright manly boy, he was well liked by old and young.
