Hatheway, one of our best known citizens, passed away peacefully and suddenly at his home on Carolina street this morning shortly after 9 o’clock. Mr. Hatheway had been complaining recently of a slight pain in his chest, but did not consider it as serious.

At 7 o’clock this morning Mrs Hathaway went to his bedroom and found him sleeping quietly. After about 2 hours later she again went to his room and on trying to awake him found this impossible. Dr Anderson was then hastily summoned, and on his arrival he pronounced Mr. Hathaway dead, the deceased evidently having passed away shortly before the second visit of his wife to the room. Mr. Hathaway was a native of Massachusetts, aged 62 years, and came to this coast when about 19 years of age.

In 1871 he came to Vallejo and was given the position of Chief Cerk in the Steam Engineering Department at the Navy Yard, that department then being in charge of his cousin, chief engineer Elbridge Lawton. He held that position until 1888, when he was superseded by William Tormey, but at the end of a year he was given back his old position, which he held until about seven years ago, when he was succeeded by James Brady. Since his retirement from the Navy Yard he has conducted a profitable real estate and insurance business, and was also agent for the Farnham estate. He was a member of the A.O.U.W., of the Knights of Pythias, of Vallejo Lodge, No. 75, F. and A.M., and of Solono Lodge No. 229, F. and A.M., and was last night elected Secretary of the latter lodge.
