"Everett G. Richmond
"Everett G. Richmond, ill with pneumonia for just a week, died at 2:45 on Thursday morning at his home in the Mashentuck district. From the first his illness was of a violent nature and his condition became so critical within a short time as almost to preclude hope for his recovery. He was 41 years of age.
"Mr. Richmond was born in Putnam, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Richmond. Practically of his life had been spent in this vicinity. Sixteen years ago he was married to Miss Ida Fiske, daughter of Mrs. Mary Jane Fiske of this town. Mrs. Richmond survives her husband with two children, Juliette, 5, and Everett G., 3.
