DEATH OF COL. TEALL -- On Friday evening last Col.William TEAL an old settler well known throughout the state as one of the oldestand most enterprising settlers in Michigan and Wisconsin died very suddenly whilstconversing with a friend, apparently all right he asked for a place to lie down todie, saying that he was not going to live five minutes, the friend referred to supposedhe was jesting and paid little attention to the remark, he then fell back in hischair, slid to the floor and never spoke afterwards, the persons present could scarcerealize that it was possible that he was dead, sent for Dr. SCHOLL who after practicingall the modern experiments for resuscitation pronounced him dead.

The Col. was a remarkable man and had great experience in early pioneering, if somepersons better acquainted with his early history would furnish us with an obituarynotice for our next we would be glad to publish it or give us sufficient data toget it up ourself, it would be interesting to the old settlers of Wisconsin.
