ANGLETON'S BODY AWAITS THE ARRIVAL OF HIS WIFE
Man who is believed to have committed suicide has been estranged from his wife, who is now coming to him from San Francisco.
Arrangements for the funeral of John J. Angleton who was found dead in a box car under the steel span of the viaduct Wednesday afternoon will not be announced until his wife arrives from San Francisco, where she has been for some time.
The deceased has a daughter living at Lincoln, Nebraska a Mrs. Wallace L. Laughlin, and she is enroute to Oklahoma City.
That Angleton took carbolic acid with suicidal intent is evident. He and his wife have not been living together, although they were not divorced, and Saturday evening Angleton went to the home of D. Cox, an employee of the Western Paving Co., where he stayed until Monday morning. During the day and two evenings while Angleton was with Cox he was in low spirits and said he had come there because he was lonesome.
J. L. Sanasack, a carpenter, saw Angleton on West Grand Ave., at 12:30 Wednesday afternoon and spoke to him, and J. O. Severns, of the Severns Paving Co., talked with Angleton at the Santa Fe passenger station shorty after 2:00 Wednesday afternoon, which was about 20 minutes prior to the time he was discovered dead in the box car. Until recently Angleton has been in Shawnee where he was working as a foreman for the Western Paving Company of Oklahoma City.
Angleton was formerly president of the Order of Owls, was a member of the K. of P. and Modern Woodmen lodges, and is known to have carried insurance in these organizations.
