The Pulaski Enterprise, Friday, 30 Jan 1931:
FORMER RESIDENT OF MOUND CITY PASSED AWAY FRIDAY

Bellenden Hutcheson, age 74, passed away at his home, 3301 Highland Avenue, Cairo, Friday night, following a prolonged illness. Mr. Hutcheson for a number of years was a resident of Mound City until eight months ago, when he moved to Cairo on account of ailing health.

Mr. Hutcheson was born in Syracuse, N.Y., and was the son of Captain Bellenden and Mary Hutcheson. He went to Mt. Carmel, Illinois, in 1880 and was united in marriage to Miss Mary Luella Wiley in 1883. To this union five children were born, all of whom survive their father. His wife preceded him in death twenty years ago, having died suddenly on Christmas Eve. The Hutcheson family moved to Mound City in 1891 and Mr. Hutcheson had resided here since that time until moving to Cairo.
It was with a deep feeling of regret that his many friends in this city learned of his death. He being a man of congenial personality, had won many close friends in the community. Surviving Mr. Hutcheson are five children, four sons, Dr. B. S. Hutcheson, of Cairo, Frederick Hutcheson, Roderick Hutcheson, and George Hutcheson, of Jackson, Tenn., and one daughter, Miss Flirmel Hutcheson, of Cairo. Three grandchildren, Margaret Lou Hutcheson, Rand Hutcheson, and Mary Courtney Hutcheson, of Jackson. Also two sisters, Misses Mary and Kate Hutcheson, and two brothers, Robert, of Columbus, Ohio, and John, of Coon Rapids, Iowa.

The body was removed to the home of his son, Dr. Hutcheson, at 3303 Park Place West, where it remained until Sunday afternoon, when it was removed to St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Mound City, where funeral services were held. The church was filled to its capacity and many were unable to gain entrance. The services were very impressive being conducted by Rev. Schuart, of Carbondale. His sermon theme was "Death Not the End, but the Beginning." The choir very sweetly sang three beautiful hymns, "Come Ye Disconsolate," "Lord Remember Me," and "There Is a Blessed Home."

The casket bearers were Thomas Campbell, Al Shuler, M. F. Browner, George Muscovalley and William Bestgen, all of Mound City, and William Mertz, of Cairo. Honorary pallbearers were L. D. Stophlet, F. J. Kuny, W. T. Jaccard, Thomas Perks, Dan Hurly, Thomas Boyd, George Grammell, L. Poindexter, Robert Magill, W. S. Sandeson, George Eichhorn, and H. L. Settlemoir.

Following the services at the church the funeral party left via the C. C. C. & St. Louis Railway for Mt. Carmel leaving Mound City at 4:20 p.m. On Monday funeral services were held and interment was made in the Mt. Carmel Cemetery by the side of his wife. G. A. James was in charge of the funeral.

(Bellenden Hutchison married Luella Wiley on 27 Mar 1883, in Wabash Co., Ill. His death certificate states that Bellenden Hutcheson was born 28 Aug 1856, in Syracuse, N.Y., the son of Bellenden Hutcheson and Mary Jones, natives of England, died 23 Jan 1931, in Cairo, Ill., and was buried in Rose Hill Cemetery at Mt. Carmel, Ill.—Darrel Dexter)
