| Obituary | Dec 23, 1904 | OBITUARY: Charles M. Colburn, 62, of the insurance firm of Colburn and Hazeltine, died suddenly at 11 o’clock Monday, Dec. 19, 1904 at Montpelier of neuralgia of the heart. He had been ill with lumbago for several days, but his condition was not thought serious. He was sitting up in bed smoking a cigar waiting for a barber to come and shave him when he expired without a moment’s warning. Mr. Colburn was in the collision in the railroad yard in Burlington about a year ago and never recovered from the effects of the shaking he received. He was a traveling salesman for the Wells & Richardson company of Burlington 23 years and was widely known in the drug trade in New England. The past 12 years he had been an agent for the Mutual Life Insurance Company. He had been a resident of Brattleboro twice. When he left the employ of the Wells & Richardson company, he was proprietor of the drug store in Brattleboro now owned by F. H. Holden & Co. Last year and early this year he had a desk in the county clerk’s office and carried on his life insurance work here. He went to Montpelier about nine months ago. He is survived by his wife, who has been living in Lyme, N.H., a daughter who is in Seattle, and a sister, Mrs. Kimball, of Woodsville, N.H.
