Professor Charles Eliot Norton '46, professor emeritus in the University, is dying at his home on Shady Hill. Last Saturday evening he began to fail rapidly, and his death is now only a matter of a few hours. Dr. E. H. Stevens of Cambridge, who is in constant attendance, announced early this morning that Professor Norton was sinking rapidly, and that the end might be expected at any time. Mr. Norton has suffered for several months from the infirmities that come with age, and has grown gradually worse, until his sinking to a dangerous condition yesterday.
