Harry M. Hascall of 94 Summer street, Auburn, was stricken with an attack of heart disease, while standing in the door-yard of his home about 5:30 Friday afternoon and died instantly. Mr. Hascall had returned home from work, and had gone out to shovel a path. A neighbor, Fred Taylor, passed and Mr. Hascall stopped to talk with him. While engaged in confersation he fell suddenly to the ground, unconscious. Mr. Taylor carried the stricken man to the house, but he had already passed away.
Harry M. Hascall was born in Durham Sept. 1, 1870 (sic). and recieved his education there. He was the son of R. Judson and Rose M. Hascall. He came to Auburn about 20 years ago and learned shoe making, working at that trade for a number of years. All his life he had a strong liking for machinery and mechanical devices; about 10 years ago he took up automobile repairing, and he has worked in several local garages. At the time of his death he was employed by the Buick Sakes company.
Mr. Hascall had a great many friends, he invariably attracted people who came in contact with his genial friendly personality. For a number of years Mr. and Mrs. Hascall occupied a cottage at Lake Auburn during the summer months and when motor boat racing was one of the popular pastimes on the lake, Mr. Hascall became one of the most ardent enthusiasts in the sport. He built several boats and he was the winner on more than one occasion in these events.
Eighteen years ago he married Miss Glenna Starbird of Auburn, who survives him. He also leaves his parents, three brothers, William J. of Norway, Herbert A. of Auburn, and Elmer S. of Auburn; three sisters, Mrs. C. H. Day and Mrs. Lena Jumper of Lewiston, and Mrs. R. O.
