SIX PAGES NUMBER 81 FTTC EVELT DEAD m ' o S0DO Noted Figure Life Died Nation Stirred to Depths Death Was Quite Unexpected OYSTER BAYL. I., Jan. 6 Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, the twenty-sixth president of the United States and one of the foremost and most picturesque figures ever known in American public life, died at his home at Sagamore Hill shortly after 4 o'clock this morning of embolism, a blood clot having affect ed the flow of blood from the heart to the lungs. Although the colonel had been ill quite recently, having been discharged much improved in health but a few days ago from a hosptial where he had been taking treatment for rheunfatism, his death was entirely unexpected. TU t.. 1 ...ill il a nc lunnui win uk sincuy private and will be held Wednesday, with ser vices at the home and at Christ Epis copal church. The body will not be taken from Oyster Bay, but will be buried in Young'f memorial cemetery. The family have requested that no flowers be sent. So well djd the colonel feel -upon retiring to his room last night that his nurse did not attend him, and the only person present when he expired at 4:15 o'clock this morning was his body servant, James Amon, who has been continually in the colonel's ser vice since his White House days. Th former president passed away very quietly in his sleep, simply ceasing all at once to breathe. Mrs. Roosevelt was the only other member of the family present at Sagamore Hill at the time. The family physician, Dr. W. G. Fal ter, was hastily summoned, but the colonel had been dead some time be fore he nrrived. After an examina tion Dr. Faller made a statement at tributing the cause of death to em bolism, superinduced by a number of maladies which the colonel contracted during his last expedition to the wilds of South America. (Colonel Roosevelt had retired last night about J0;:J0 o'clock, in the be.ai of spirits and apparently feeling nr. usually well. His body servant, who has been sitting up in the colonel h room of nights, said that the former president was sleeping soundly and peacefully at midnight, and that it wti3 few minutes after 4 o'clock thitj morning when the disturbed breathing of the colonel indicated that something was wrong. The sleeper seemed rest less, but did not awaken, and death apparently enme to him painlessly. The date of the funeral was not de cided upon until word had been re ceived back from the colonel's son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Rich ard Derby, who were in Ashcville, S. C. Archibald Roosevelt, son of the colonel, was in Boston when his father died. Of the other sons, Major Theodore ( Roosevelt is with the American armyjhorn ln ukiah. Oregon, twenty-nine of occupation, in Germany, and Cap- yeira aR0. His father and one tain Kermit Roosevelt is with the American expeditionary forces ini France. 'Captain Quentin Roosevelt was killed in an air. battle in France some time ajo. Mrs. Roosevelt bore up well under the shock. Although her pricf is profound and deep, she did not col-Up.-te nor become hysterical. PrefttUmt WihxMi NoH"iei. 1 WASHINGTON, Jan. fi.
