He died winter that year, and was buried with honor.

Finally he dies and leaves that house to his son.

It was late in the season, and the light died early, that first night.

He died in early March that year, with his wife and children, in a house fire.

Elizabeth died from the complications of the birth that day.

"I died so many times with my act," he said, "that this one's going to be easy."

He died that same year of cancer at age 38.

He retired from politics before the 1929 election and died on 17 April that same year.

He continued to play through the 1976 season before dying that December at the age of 29.
