CHARLES E.GOODWIN DYING
SHOT IN HIS ROOM LAST NIGHT BY BERTRAM C. WEBSTER.

JEALOUSY THE CAUSE OF THE DEED - MISS "EVELINE GRANVILLE" THE WOMAN IN THE CASE - SHE CALLED HERSELF WEBSTER'S WIFE.

The staid apartment house, the Percival, 230 West Forty-second Street, was last night the scene of an attempt at murder that Is likely to prove successful, Charles E. Goodwin, a commercial agent, who is connected with the wine firm of Goodwin & Ricord, having been shot In the abdomen by Bertram C. Webster, the horse owner and bookmaker.

The cause of the shooting was a pretty, baby faced, curly-haired little blonde, once an actress known as Eveline Granville, who was for some time been known as Webster's wife. Goodwin hired apartment 37 on the third floor a year ago, and was greatly respected. The Webster's who hired apartments 16 and 17 on the same floor two months ago, were less well regarded.

A month ago Mr. Goodwin drank more wine than was good for at a dinner, and a friend brought him home. Although he had never until that time he was shot spoken to Webster, he had a nodding acquaintance with Eveline, who, much to the annoyance of other tenants was in the habit of lounging in the corridor outside of her apartments in becoming dishabille toilets. She was there when Goodwin got off the elevator car with his friend, and seeing her, Goodwin advanced toward her saying:

"Wait a moment, I want to love this charming little woman," and he attempted to put his arm around her neck.

Eveline shreiked "0 mamma !" and ran down stairs to ask Actor George Wade of the "Wang" company to protect her from Mr. Goodwln.

Mr. Wade says that Eveline was greatly excited, and would not for some time be pacified, but when she went to her room with him, she pulled open a drawer and exhibiting a pistol, said that someday someone might suffer for his audacity. The next day Mr. Goodwin apologized and the affair was regarded as settled. .

Webster, who has done little in sporting matters since May, drank to excess yesterday, and at 7:30 o'clock last night the elevator man noticed that he was at the door of his apartment in his shirt sleeves. Webster, noticing that he was green, said jocularly," Well, are you going to Harlem & you are awfully long making your trip."

The man went up and on his return Webster said he was looking for his pet cat and asked him to make a thorough search for it down stairs. A minute later there was a shout of wild altercation, a shot and a crash from Mr. Goodwin's room. The next minute Webster was encountered walking down stairs, instead of taking the elevator.

He said, "Send for a, doctor, you'd better."
"Is Mrs. Webster sick" he was asked,
"No; it's for that fellow Goodwin, I guess he's hurt."
In another moment he went out of the front door and boarded a car.

Mr. Goodwin was found partly under a table in his room with a broken cuspidor under him. Dr. Sebastian J. Wimmer was summoned, while Roundsman Daly sent for an ambulance. The wound was pronounced fatal. Goodwin said that he was writing a letter when a knock came at his door. He said "Come in," and Webster entered, holding a revolver in front of him and vomiting abuse. When within two feet of him, Goodwin having risen, Webster fired point blank at his abdomen and fled.

At the hospital Goodwin's chances of surviving were not even entertained, but he may linger until tomorrow. If he survives It will be a miracle.

Capt. Cross put Eveline under gaurd and sent out a posse to hunt tor Webster. Eveline said that Webster went to Goodwin for an apology and shot him when he flung a cuspidor at him. She refused to be interviewed, and said that she had on a former occasion made a morning newspaper "take down its colors." The woman has a history.

At the Roosevelt Hospital Dr. Schultze, the house surgeon. examined the wound and found that the bullet had pierced the liver, stomach, and small intestine and had lodged in the left kidney. Laparotomy was performed, but the case is considered hopeless. After the operation Dr. Schultze asked Goodwin If he knew that he was going to die, and Goodwin said that he did.

"Have you any statement to make?" asked the doctor. .

"Yes," answered Goodwin. "I was sitting in my room, when a man named Webster entered, knocked me off my chair, and shot me."

10278. Howard Haskell

GLOUCESTER DAILY TIMES
AUGUST 3, 1925:

Howard Haskell, one of the city's oldest and most esteemed residents, passed away at his home on Marchant street at an early hour yesterday morning at the age of 81 years.

His death was not unexpected for he has been confined to his bed for many weeks, but he bore his suffering with the fortitude which was characteristic of him and the end came peacefully.

Mr. Haskell was the son of Benjamin and Mary (Babson) Haskell and was born in this city September 27, 1843. On his father's side he descended from Wiliam Haskell, who came from England and settled at West Gloucester in 1642, and on his mother's side from the Centers of Gloucester and the Babsons of Rockport.

Mr. Haskell had one of the most successful business careers in the history of the city. It began at the early age of 14, when he opened a small clothing store for winter trade and went mackerel fishing in the summer.

In 1862, at the age of 19 he enlisted in Co. G. 8th Regiment and served until September, 1863, when he was discharged because of serious illness. In 1865 he started in the provisions business with Sherman J. Carter, but gave this up to enter into a partnership with his father and brothers in the grocery and provision business, under their firm name of B. Haskell & Sons. This business continued until 1893 and during that time was one of the largest retail concerns in the city, occupying three large stores and employing many people, also owning and outfitting a fleet of vessels.

Mr. Haskell retired from active business in 1893 and occupied his time in looking after his real estate, of which he had a large amount.

The call of the sea was strong in him. From the time when, as a boy of 10 he had his first dory and caught and salted tinker mackerel in the summer vacation, until failing health caused him to give up motor boating, he spent as much time as possible on the water.

Ice boating, automobiling, hunting all sorts of out-door sports appealed to him, for he loved the open air. Mr. Haskell was of quiet, unobtrusive disposition, but those who knew him best appreciated him most.

He married on December 31, 1869, Miss Anne Everett Davis, who survives him, with one daughter, Miss Marguerite Davis Haskell, and a granddaughter, Miss Doris Haskell Vivian, also two brothers, Melvin of this city and Loring B. of Long Beach, California. Another daughter, Mrs. Adel B. Vivian, died some years ago.

A good citizen, a kind husband and father, a good man. He needs no higher praise. The funeral services will be held at his late home, 5 Marchant Street, tomorrow afternoon, at 2:30 o'clock.

Ann Everett Davis

GLOUCESTER DAILY TIMES
JANUARY 10, 1927

Mrs. Anne E. (Davis), widow of Howard Haskell, passed away suddenly at her home early yesterday morning at the age of 83 years, two months.

She was a native and life long resident of this city, being born at Annisquarn, the daughter of Robert and Elizabeth (Day) Davis, and through them descended from two of the oldest families on Cape Ann.

On December 31, 1868, she was married to Howard Haskell and the couple at once took possession of their newly erected home on Marchant street, where they were privileged to live together for more than 56 years. Mr. Haskell passed away August 2, 1925.

Mrs. Haskell was a gentlewoman of the old school. She was one of a family of eight brothers and sisters, all but one of whom have preceded her to the higher life, and though at times she may have felt that she had outlived her generation, she always maintained a keen interest in present day matters.

She was essentially a home maker. The comfort and well-being of her family were always her first care and in spite of her advanced age, she was still able to perform many household duties so that her sudden passing is a surprise to many friends.

She is survived by one daughter, Miss Marguertie D. Haskell, and a granddaughter, Miss Doris Haskell Vivian, also a sister Miss Frances Davis, and several nieces and nephews; another daughter, Mrs. Adel D. Vivian passed away some years ago.
