Death of Vice-President Thomas A. Hendricks.
A NATION MOURNS.
Indianapolis, Ind., Nov. 27,— Hon. Thomas A. Hendricks, VicePresident of the United States, died very suddenly at his residence in this city at 4:45 o’clock Wednesday evening., under circumstances that were particularly distressing to his family and
friends, in so much as they had not anticipated a fatal termination of his brief illness, and nobody was with him when death
came. He returned from Chicago last Saturday, and since then
had been complaining somewhat of pain in his head and breast,
but nothing was thought of it.
Tuesday night Mr. and Mrs. Hendricks attended a reception at
the residence of Hon. John J. Cooper, Treasurer of State, returning home in their carriage about midnight. Mr. Hendricks had
taken off the heavy clothing which he usually wore and put on a
dress suit of lighter material. Before he got home he complained
of chilliness and certain degree of exhaustion, but attributed it to
malarial influences. He sat by the fire for an hour or more before
retiring, but declined to send for a physician, although urged to
do so. He slept restlessly until eight o’clock Wednesday morning,
when he arose, dressed himself, and ate quite a hearty breakfast., saying that he felt much better and intended to attend to
considerable business during the day. He and Mrs. Hendricks
walked out for nearly half an hour, and he had apparently regained his physical vigor and cheerfulness. And hour later, however , he began to be troubled with pains in the region of his
stomach, and Mr. Hendricks sent for the family physician, Dr. W.
C. Thompson. As the pains continued to increase he was given an
emetic, and afterward an injection, and finally relief came. He
arose from his bed, in which he had lain only a few minutes, and
read the morning paper, talking cheerfully with his wife and an
old house servant. Just before noon he had a relapse, however,
and the physician was again summoned, and administered the
usual remedies, besides bleeding the patient. Mr. Hendricks
again expressed himself as being greatly relived. He Remained in
his room all afternoon, occasionally rising from the bed, to which
he was compelled to return by the recurrence of the abdominal
pains. To callers who came, and they were numerous, he sent
word that he was indisposed, but would be glad to see them
today about 4:30 o’clock. Mrs. Hendricks, who had been at his
bedside all day, went to the parlor to see a caller, who had come
to consult with her regarding the affairs of the reformatory of
which she was a manager, and she remained with him about
twenty minutes. Tom, a colored servant, and Harry Morgan, Mr.
Hendricks nephew and page in Washington, remained with him.
The servant went out, and Mr. Morgan stayed. Mr. Hendricks
Complained of great pain, but suddenly it seemed to cease, and
he said to his nephew: “I am free at last; send for Eliza,” meaning
his wife, and these were his last words, for the young man, not
realizing the urgency of the message, did not deliver it at once.
Just before five o’clock Mrs. Hendricks came into the room and
found that her husband was dead. The end of a long and
eventful life had come peacefully and quietly. He lay on the bed,
outside the covering, only partially disrobed, with his eyes half
closed, as if he were in a gentle slumber. On his face there were
no traces of pain or suffering, but a pallor had come over it
which indicated only too plainly that he had passed away. It
needed no close examination to tell that he was dead. And Mrs.
Hendricks screamed and ran down-stair. (cont. Next week)
