CALLED TO DEATH
OF HUSBAND
A telegram was received here Tuesday morning by Mrs. L. Schuckman from Williams stating that her husband, Louis Schuckman, who has long been a sufferer from consumption and who for several months has been quite ill, was nearing the end.
Mrs. Schuckman and her brother, Tom Dillon, departed on the noon train for his bedside but it was not expected that they would reach him before his death took place.
Mrs. Schuckman has also been a sufferer of consumption and several months ago she was sent here by physicians so that she would be away from the worry and confinement of her husband's sick room, but she has not improved since coming here but has become weaker and when the news of her husbands, condition reached her today the shock almost prostrated her, making it necessary for her to be taken to the depot in a carriage.
Mr. Schuckman is quite well known in Red Bluff and in Redding and Keswick, he being the owner of the Riverside hotel at Keswick station. He was formerly in the employ of the railroad company as station agent at Keswick, which position he filled for several years. He was well known among the railroad men of all stations and while agent at Keswick he prevented the station being held up by shooting a masked robber who had ordered him to throw up his hands. -- Red Bluff Cause.
