CHARLES HATCH CALLED BY DEATH
----------
Veteran of the Civil War and Formerly Resident
of the town of Stockbridge.
----------
The people of Calumet county will read with sorrow of the death of Charles Hatch, for many years a prominent resident of Stockbridge, which occurred at the National Soldiers' home at Milwaukee at noon, Jan. 21, 1922, after an illness of some months. The body was taken to Fond du Lac where the funeral was held on Monday afternoon, Feb. 6th at 2:00 o'clock, with interment in Rienzi Cemetery.

Charles Harrison Hatch was born in Ogden, Monroe County, NY, on May 10, 1838. At an early age he moved with his parents to Ohio. Later the family moved to Dodge County, Wisconsin, where they made their home for a number of years. He enlisted at Leroy, Dodge County, Sept. 11, 1861 in company K of the Tenth Wisconsin Infantry and was wounded at the battle of Chaplin Hill, later being taken prisoner at Chickamauga. He was mustered out of the service Nov. 3, 1864, and returned to his home. He was married to Elizabeth Taylor of Byron, Fond du Lac County, who died in 1873 and on Aug. 10, 1875 he was married to Catherine Stroup of Fond du Lac, who died some four years ago. Shortly after his second marriage he purchased a farm in the town of Stockbridge north of the village on the Military road and lived there until some twenty years ago when he disposed of the farm to his sons and moved to Oshkosh where he lived until four years ago and then went to Milwaukee.

Mr. Hatch was recognized as one of the influential men of Calumet county for many years. He was the first man to introduce a breed of purebred draft horses in this county and did much to advance the interest of the farmers. He was chairman of the town for many years and his administration of the affairs was such as to reflect credit on him. Fair and square in all dealings he was fearless in advocating what he thought was right. The world is better because such men as Mr. Hatch have lived in it.

Surviving him are six children, Louis and Glen Hatch of Spokane, Wash., and Arthur Hatch of Yakima, Wash., Mrs. John Jorgensen of Oshkosh, Mrs. Vern Price of Kennewick, Wash., and Mrs. John Hull of Markesan.
