Death
Hague died on New Year's Day in 1956 at his Park Avenue penthouse in New York. While hundreds gathered to see the casket depart the funeral home, only four men were seen to remove their hats for the passing of the coffin. One woman present held an American Flag and a sign that read, "God have mercy on his sinful, greedy soul."
Hague was interred in a large mausoleum at Holy Name Cemetery in Jersey City.
