Obituary; Cassopolis Vigilant, May 5, 1892: On Tuesday morning last week, Mr. Frank Bowling, and old and respected citizen of this city, died very suddenly of heart failure. He had not been well for a few days but had kept about his work. On Tuesday morning he started with his team for a load of stone from "over the swamp". On the way he met and talked with Mr. Swisher, at which time he appeared to be as well as usual. In a few moments after this , Mr. Martin McCluckey saw his team running away and stopped them. Seeing a man laying on the ground by the roadside, he went to him and found Mr. Bowling, who gasped two or three times, and died.
The verdict of Coroner Michael and Dr. Herkimer was that he died of heart disease, to which he was subject and for which he was under Dr. H's care. Mr. Bowling was 58 years old. He was buried from the M.E. church Saturday afternoon, Rev. Tallman of Pakagon officiating.
